Google and partners release Modern Web Guidance skills for coding agents
Overview
Google and partners introduce Modern Web Guidance, an installable set of skills that gives coding agents web platform expertise, best practices and browser compatibility data.
The tool runs local searches and retrieves guides so agents use current browser APIs instead of legacy JavaScript patterns.
Guides covering experimental Origin Trial APIs or volatile features, meaning single-engine features shipped within the last three months or still stabilizing, stay discoverable through search. Those guides are gated on retrieve, so agents do not adopt unstable APIs without explicit developer consent.
