Summary: Microsoft released Flint, described as a visualization language for AI agents, surfaced as a Show HN on 2026-07-08. The project provides a declarative way for agents to produce charts.
Why it matters: Structured chart output is a recurring gap in agent tooling, and a maintained specification from a large vendor is worth tracking for adoption.
