CSS Programming Tutorials & Engineering Articles

This post introduces three architectural patterns designed to integrate Model Context Protocol (MCP) Apps and Agent-to-User Interface (A2UI) to solve the tradeoff between highly custom iframe environments and native, declarative rendering. By combining these approaches, developers can serve native-feeling UIs directly over MCP servers, embed complex and stateful iframe apps securely inside declarative views, or inject generative UI components into legacy systems. Ultimately, these hybrid frameworks empower engineering teams to deliver secure, performant, and brand-consistent agentic user experiences tailored to their specific project constraints.

When building with agents, most guides will give you the happy path - how to do something the best way, without friction. This post is all friction, and how to get through it when things go wrong.
