New frontend-design skill for Agent Runners

April 17, 2026

Agent Runners now include a frontend-design skill that guides AI agents toward creating distinctive, production-grade frontend interfaces with high design quality.

When building web components, pages, or applications, AI agents often default to generic, cookie-cutter aesthetics. The frontend-design skill steers agents toward creative, polished output that avoids that “AI slop” look and instead produces UIs with real visual identity and craft.

Here’s what a generated calculator component looks like without the skill:

And here’s the same prompt with the frontend-design skill enabled:

The skill is automatically available in Agent Runners and activates when the agent is asked to build web components, pages, or applications. No configuration required—just prompt your agent to build a UI and the skill handles the rest.
