This update helps AI agents understand, audit, and visually verify
Webstudio projects more reliably. It also adds clearer guidance for
expressions, Collections, screenshots, and responsive rendered audits.
### Audit complete projects
- Run one `audit` command across accessibility, SEO, security, assets,
styles, and performance.
- Audit the whole project or focus on a specific page, scope, or
severity.
- Receive stable findings with locations, explanations, and recommended
fixes.
- Continue large result sets through pagination without repeating
general guidance.
### Audit the rendered website
- Build and inspect the generated website, rather than relying only on
stored project data.
- Check every static page at representative mobile, tablet, and desktop
widths.
- Use one suitable viewport inside each configured breakpoint range.
- Reuse the same browser and resize pages between captures for
substantially faster audits.
- Process multiple pages concurrently while keeping resource use
bounded.
- Supply concrete examples for dynamic routes such as blog posts.
- Review and confirm unusually large screenshot plans before they run.
### Find visual and performance problems
Rendered audits can detect:
- Horizontal page overflow.
- Broken images.
- Images loaded eagerly below the fold.
- Images that are much larger than their rendered size.
- Render-blocking resources.
- Legacy font formats.
- Pages that fail to load or redirect somewhere unexpected.
- Pages captured before their layout becomes stable.
Detailed screenshots, measurements, failures, and timing evidence are
saved locally for further inspection.
### Capture generated pages directly
- Capture a project route with `webstudio screenshot --path /route`.
- Automatically generate and start a temporary production-style preview.
- Stop the temporary preview after the screenshot is captured.
- Return navigation, responsive layout, and page-size evidence with JSON
output.
- Allow external image domains needed by the generated preview.
### Reuse generated previews
- Cache generated preview builds when the project has not changed.
- Reuse preview dependencies across regenerations.
- Keep preview dependencies isolated from the user’s project
dependencies.
- Surface preview build and startup failures with useful diagnostic
output.
- Include local project assets in generated previews.
### Author Collections correctly
- Explain when Collection is required for arrays and objects.
- Guide agents to bind the complete iterable instead of one item or the
response wrapper.
- Explain how Collection repeats its children for every entry.
- Explain current-item and current-key scope.
- Preserve Webstudio’s generated Collection parameters.
- Guide agents to use stable values for repeated interactive components.
### Write expressions with fewer mistakes
- Add a dedicated `webstudio://project/expressions` reference.
- Document expression scope, supported syntax, and supported methods.
- Explain how resources, variables, Collections, actions, and `system`
values are accessed.
- Distinguish fixed values from runtime expressions.
- Provide valid examples for text, props, resource URLs, headers, query
parameters, and bodies.
- Warn agents that valid syntax does not guarantee that runtime data has
the expected shape.
### Improve agent discovery
- Make Collection and expression workflows discoverable through
`meta.guide`.
- Return Collection-specific instructions through `components.get`.
- Point relevant command schemas to the expression reference.
- Keep detailed guidance available without placing it in every tool
response.
### Improve audit reliability
- Report which rendered captures passed, found issues, failed, or were
skipped.
- Distinguish planning, preview, capture, and cleanup failures.
- Include actionable retry instructions with rendered failures.
- Preserve completed evidence when part of an audit fails.
- Detect stale or conflicting preview servers more clearly.
- Support cancellation and bounded capture timeouts.
### Improve packaged CLI verification
- Add a release-shaped CLI smoke test.
- Install the packed CLI in an isolated temporary project.
- Fail on peer-dependency warning floods.
- Verify preview, screenshots, MCP calls, rendered audits, and generated
assets.
- Confirm that generic React Router previews do not include Docker-only
image dependencies.
- Keep CLI and MCP stdout machine-readable while progress remains on
stderr.
## User Impact
Agents can now audit a real rendered Webstudio site, inspect responsive
behavior, find concrete visual and performance problems, and provide
evidence for their conclusions. They also receive much clearer
instructions when turning API data into repeated content or writing
dynamic expressions.
## prettier -> oxfmt (0.58.0)
- .oxfmtrc.json generated with `oxfmt --migrate=prettier`: trailingComma
es5, printWidth 80 (oxfmt defaults to 100), sortPackageJson disabled,
.prettierignore patterns folded in (file deleted).
- ignorePatterns additionally exclude yml/yaml/toml/jsonc and
packages/cli/templates/** so oxfmt covers exactly the file set prettier
used to format (ts,tsx,js,json,css,md) and never touches user-facing
scaffolding artifacts.
- root `format` script, nano-staged pre-commit hook and the CI check
(`pnpm oxfmt --check`, replacing `prettier --cache --check` and its
actions/cache step — oxfmt checks the whole repo in ~0.7s) now run
oxfmt.
- every generator script that ran `prettier --write` on __generated__
output now runs `oxfmt` (css-data, icons, html-data, postgrest, sdk,
sdk-components-*, apps/builder tailwind preflight).
- the four scripts that used prettier's JS `format()` API write raw
source instead and their package.json scripts pipe the generated file
through the oxfmt CLI: project-build generate-docs +
generate-runtime-operation-contracts, cli generate-docs, apps/builder
generate-server-only-api-metadata. oxfmt rejects paths containing "..",
so cross-package generated files are formatted via a subshell cd into
the owning package.
- one-time reformat: oxfmt's canonical output differs from prettier on 8
repo source files (binary-operator continuation indent, import() call
wrapping, sub-pixel spacing of empty for-clauses); oxfmt honors existing
`// prettier-ignore` comments so intentional layouts are kept.
- prettier remains ONLY as a cli devDependency for the
prettier/standalone HTML normalizer inside html-to-jsx.test.ts, and
inside fixtures/ + packages/cli/templates/ (ships to scaffolded user
projects; out of scope here).
- editor config switched from esbenp.prettier-vscode to oxc.oxc-vscode
(devcontainer extension list, .vscode editor.defaultFormatter).
## oxlint 1.56 -> 1.73
- oxlint 1.73 rules-of-hooks special-cases hooks NAMED useEffectEvent:
their results may only be called from effects. Our
app/shared/hook-utils/effect-event.ts is a stable-callback helper
(useEvent pattern), intentionally called from event handlers and passed
as props. The rule is disabled via .oxlintrc.json overrides for the five
files doing this (product code untouched); note those files lose
hook-order linting entirely until the rule becomes configurable.
## TypeScript 5.8.2 -> 7.0.2 (native compiler)
- `tsc` is now the Go-based native binary; all `tsgo` script usages
(workspace packages and fixtures) renamed back to `tsc` and
@typescript/native-preview removed (the package is being phased out).
- fixes for TS7 changed defaults and stricter checks:
- `types` now defaults to [] -> base tsconfig sets "types": ["node"]
(restores the implicit-@types/node behavior of TS5).
- `rootDir` now defaults to ./ -> every tsconfig.dts.json sets
"rootDir": "./src" (TS5011 otherwise).
- import assertions removed -> cli/src/cli.ts uses `with { type: "json"
}` (TS2880).
- stricter isolatedDeclarations inference -> explicit annotations in
css-data bin/property-filter.ts (TS9010) and image image-dev.stories.tsx
(TS9013).
- declaration serialization limit -> project-build builder-runtime.ts
runtimeOperationContracts gets an explicit type (TS7056); the annotation
preserves the narrow RuntimeOperationId union.
- TS7 ships no stable programmatic API:
- react-sdk (component-generator tests drive the compiler API) aliases
its typescript devDependency to @typescript/typescript6@^6.0.2; its bin
is `tsc6`, so the package's typecheck still runs native TS7 tsc from the
workspace root.
- generate-arg-types keeps typescript 5.8.2 for react-docgen-typescript.
- fixtures/ and packages/cli/templates/ keep typescript 5.8.2
(user-facing); fixture scripts still work because plain `tsc` resolves
to their local dependency.
## vite -> rolldown-vite 7.3.1 (oxc bundler)
- global pnpm override `"vite": "npm:rolldown-vite@^7.3.1"`: the builder
app (remix v2 vite plugin works unmodified), every package vite build
and the storybook build now bundle on rolldown/oxc.
- vitest is scoped BACK to vanilla vite via `vitest>vite`,
`vite-node>vite` and `@vitest/mocker>vite` overrides because vitest
3.1's runner does not understand rolldown's SSR transform
(__vite_ssr_exportName__ ReferenceError in every suite).
- those overrides pin vite EXACTLY to 6.3.4: letting ^6.3.4 float to
6.4.3 breaks cli prebuild tests (dynamic import of a generated
app/routes/$.tsx fails to resolve under 6.4.3's loader).
## unrelated cleanup requested during review
- apps/builder commands.ts imports duplicate-tokens-group statically
instead of via dynamic import. The circular dependency the dynamic
import guarded against only exists through the command-panel barrel
(command-panel.tsx > groups/index.ts > commands-group.tsx >
commands.ts); importing the group module directly is cycle-free
(verified with madge), matching the neighboring wrap-group and
convert-group imports.
## verification
- pnpm lint, oxfmt --check: clean.
- pnpm -r typecheck (TS7 native) and pnpm dts: clean.
- pnpm -r test: all suites pass (builder 2093 tests, cli 630, react-sdk
45, project-build 11, ...).
- builder app build, full workspace build, cli build and storybook build
all succeed on rolldown-vite.

This PR expands Webstudio MCP and CLI into a more complete agent
authoring interface. Agents can discover project capabilities, edit real
Webstudio content, use data/resources, verify visual output, and report
useful issues when workflows fail.
## MCP User Capabilities
- Create, update, duplicate, reorder, and delete pages.
- Create pages from templates and manage reusable page templates.
- Inspect project pages, instances, props, styles, assets, variables,
resources, and metadata.
- Insert Webstudio components and authored JSX fragments into pages.
- Edit text, props, styles, breakpoints, design tokens, and CSS
variables.
- Update page metadata, SEO fields, redirects, marketplace metadata, and
project settings.
- Create and use static data variables.
- Create and use dynamic resources fetched over HTTP.
- Use REST, GraphQL, and built-in system resources in authored pages.
- Bind data variables and resources to visible page content.
- Create resource-backed pages such as sitemap XML, structured SEO data,
and API-driven content sections.
- Preview current project state without requiring a publish step.
- Capture screenshots for visual verification.
- Verify responsive designs across desktop, tablet, and mobile
breakpoints.
- Use screenshot diff and OCR-style checks to inspect rendered output.
- Reset and refresh local MCP project state when needed.
- Discover available CLI/MCP commands from generated manuals.
- Use clearer examples for resources, data variables, JSX authoring,
previewing, and visual checks.
- Read marketplace product metadata without requiring a full project
snapshot.
- Get safer guidance when using low-level patch tools.
- Get a ready-to-copy Discord report template when MCP/CLI behavior is
confusing or broken.
We can start using testing utilities for components meta. It will
drastically simplify maintenance of components, already works pretty
well for tests.
Here just replaced @webstudio-is/sdk/testing with
@webstudio-is/template.

Our parser is good enough to represent any styles with css. Here
converted normalize styles into css and moved into sdk package.
Also fixed (remix) form component name
Here split everything imported from react-sdk by published sites into
separate entry point react-sdk/runtime.
The result in ssg fixture is the following
```diff
- 429788 chunk-CuG10VAj.js
+ 370366 chunk-D4NWbWis.js
```
Here improved replacing placeholders in our templates. Before used some
relative path to stubs. Now use explicitly named placeholders like
`__CLIENT__`, `__SERVER__`, `__CSS__` and `__SITEMAP__`.
This will give more flexibility when support other frameworks, for
example vike.
Here improved our checks. No longet rely on "checks" script but run
"test" and "typescript" scripts from each package in monorepo.
Would also make each package less boilerplaty.

Our vite setup in builder is getting slower
because of huge amount of modules.
Here I merged more than 400 icon modules into 2 modules string and
components.
This should improved vite experience and slightly reduce bundling time.
