A survey topping the June 25 HF list (263 upvotes) argues code generation is moving past natural-language-to-code, pulling in screenshots, diagrams, and UI mockups as inputs (HF Daily Papers). This matches what I'm seeing in my own work. The most useful thing I do with coding agents lately is hand them a screenshot of a broken layout, not a paragraph describing it. The paper is a decent taxonomy for sorting which multimodal coding capabilities are real today versus aspirational.
