Designing without a manual style editor
Tenor is built around direction rather than a growing collection of manual controls.

Describe the outcome
Traditional interface tools ask people to manipulate every visual property themselves. Tenor asks for the outcome: what the component should communicate, how it should behave, and what should change.
The agent handles the implementation details while the person keeps control of the direction. That makes iteration conversational without making the result disposable.
A focused product
We are intentionally not turning Tenor into a manual style editor. We are working on a smaller system for generating, refining, and handing off coded interface components with more precision.
