There are two main reasons why being framework specific can be a big boost:

1. We annotate and understand your template language. So when you select an element, we not only know its tag and attributes, but we also know which template file rendered it. The more structured the template language is (JSX, HEEx, etc), the better job we can do, which means LLMs don't have to guess.

2. We also run code within the web framework. This means database access, built-in documentation using the exact versions in your project, access to language and framework reflection/introspection APIs, etc. So the agents have more, err, agency.

I hope this clarifies it a bit!
