EXM7777 · x · 2026-08-01
The author shares an automated agent workflow to improve frontend design taste:
- Inspiration Collection: Bookmarking appealing designs on X.
- Automated Breakdown: Using X MCP, a Hermes agent processes bookmarks weekly, spawning a Gemini subagent to deeply analyze and tear down each design.
- Template Distillation: Keeping the valuable insights and converting them into DESIGN.md templates.
- Component Mining: A cron job routinely scrapes Reddit and GitHub for indie dev UI components, folding the best ones directly into a custom Claude Code plugin.
