Enabling Creative Exploration for Vibe Design Agents

The paper introduces a new inference architecture for vibe design agents that separates design exploration from implementation. By generating structured design specifications with typicality scores and selecting one for downstream generation, the method allows users to explore coherent UI alternatives without altering the underlying generation settings. Experiments on UI themes and visual-asset prompts show increased selection coverage and screenshot variation, with mixed preferences from an LLM judge and modest operational costs in a large online test.

Editable Visual Design

Editable Visual Design introduces a new design paradigm that combines a Coding Agent with a Vision‑Language Model (VLM) and an image generation model. The VLM acts as the creative brain, understanding requirements, planning tasks, and judging aesthetics, while the image generator produces isolated visual assets on demand. The agent follows an "imagine first, then act" workflow, generating assets, writing native HTML/CSS, and refining the design through visual feedback, ultimately producing editable, layer‑wise artifacts with real text that can be adjusted via a graphical interface.
