Chrome released Modern Web Guidance 1.0, adding a workflow that scans existing web code for modernization opportunities and supplies guidance to coding agents. Firefox and Edge are joining the project to contribute and improve cross-browser compatibility.

The tool embeds web-platform practices and browser compatibility data into agents' workflows. Its expanded guide database targets hundreds of identified AI knowledge gaps, with expert review and public evaluations. The new modernization workflow examines HTML, CSS, JavaScript and package.json files, but initially uses static analysis limited to a narrow set of known patterns.
