What if web frameworks offered a standard way to discover capabilities that are then given to AI as tools? A document.getTools() perhaps?

This could be achieved simply with plugins for NextJS, VueJS, SvelteKit etc. Small convention that eliminates a lot of brittleness when web agents try to discover capabilities and invoke them.

Interesting idea.

  • Feels a bit like AppleScript / Apple events scripting interface, but web apps?
  • Getting broad support might take more time than getting LLM:s to interact with real web apps?
  • A bit similar to Semantic Web, too, but in a nice way a lot simpler.
  • Could also think about creating polyfills for old web sites that support the API (and a way to add/find them).
