[External Plugin]: Modern Web Guidance

[gilbertococchi]

Plugin name

modern-web-guidance

Short description

Modern Web Guidance is an agent skill and CLI tool designed to help AI coding agents build web applications using modern, secure, and high-performance APIs rather than outdated workarounds.
Supported by the Google Chrome team, it injects expert-curated web platform best practices directly into an agent's context window to prevent the generation of bloated, legacy code.
