I want to learn from people in my network building AI agents into their sites. 🤖💡 Whether you’re building a custom agent, integrating a third-party tool, or creating an agent platform for others—I’d love to chat! 🧵👇

Escape the frustration of watching your coding agent confidently generate web code from 2018. Modern Web Guidance offers over 100 clean, markdown-based web platform best practice guides and searches them with RAG-style cosine similarity, so you can select the right one for your coding agent to use.

Learn how WebMCP bridges the gap between websites and AI agents by enabling sites to expose structured tools. From filtering hotels in Tokyo with specific amenities to dynamically customizing a pizza, understand how WebMCP empowers AI agents to perform complex tasks on the web more precisely.

Too hot at home right now. So flew to India instead. Say hello if at #GoogleIOConnect India. I’ll be hanging about or on the Chrome stage at 2:30 as part of a panel talking about “The evolving landscape of web development”!

Imagine reducing camera and microphone capture errors by nearly half just by changing an HTML tag. Zoom did exactly that during our initial trials. The <usermedia> element handles the heavy lifting of consent and stream delivery right in the DOM. Learn about the markup → goo.gle/4vQFlBl

From on-device AI integration to real-time agent debugging, #GoogleIOConnect Berlin was about putting modern web capabilities into production. Experience the Chrome keynote highlights, including Chrome DevTools for agents & Modern Web Guidance, as we show you how to upgrade your AI coding workflows.

Ever been annoyed by a "confirm your email" message with a flaky magic link or OTP with clunky copy+paste, if the email even arrives‽ Optimistically, 20-30% of those emails* are never seen. We can fix that! If you have *any* email collection on your site, I'd love to see you try it & give feedback.

It can be challenging for AI agents to solve complex user intents by synthesizing signals like screenshots, the DOM, and the Accessibility Tree. Enter WebMCP, a proposed web standard that aims to expose structured tools for AI agents directly on existing websites, now in origin trial ⬇️

Chrome Web Ecosystem Consultant Yu Tsuno works hand-in-hand with partners to build a safer web. At #GoogleIOConnect Berlin, he’s presenting on modern authentication technologies like passkeys and email verification, plus offering a sneak peek into securing identity for the emerging agentic web!

Really insightful workshop about WebMCP at #GoogleIOConnect - this actually might make a lot of sense to integrate in our appointment booking product. What makes it useful is that agents do not have to use the same flows as people and can answer questions like: “when is the next available time?”
