Telerik ASP.NET MVC Agentic UI Generator Overview
The Telerik ASP.NET MVC Agentic UI Generator improves your developer experience and increases your productivity when implementing ASP.NET MVC apps that include Telerik UI for ASP.NET MVC. The Agentic UI Generator provides proprietary context to AI models in order to produce higher quality code samples with the Telerik UI for ASP.NET MVC components and API.
The Agentic UI Generator is not a standalone AI coding assistant. It is a Telerik UI for ASP.NET MVC-specific layer that plugs into the AI tool you already use, such as GitHub Copilot, Cursor, or Claude Code, and adds proprietary Telerik UI for ASP.NET MVC knowledge to it.
The Agentic UI Generator is delivered through the Telerik ASP.NET MVC MCP Server—A powerful tool for running complex or multi-step prompts that integrates with any MCP-enabled client.
We recommend the Telerik ASP.NET MVC MCP Server for:
- Agent mode when using Visual Studio
- Both Ask and Agent modes when using Visual Studio Code
Available Capabilities
The capabilities and MCP tools of the Agentic UI Generator vary across the Telerik and Kendo UI products. The Telerik ASP.NET MVC MCP server provides context about Telerik UI for ASP.NET MVC components, their configuration, and API. Your AI client uses this context to generate and explain code that includes Telerik UI for ASP.NET MVC components.
Getting Started
To use the Telerik ASP.NET MVC Agentic UI Generator, you need:
- A Telerik user account.
- An active DevCraft or Telerik UI for ASP.NET MVC license or a Telerik UI for ASP.NET MVC trial.
- An ASP.NET MVC application that includes Telerik UI for ASP.NET MVC.
Intended Use
Always double-check the code and solutions proposed by any AI-powered tool before applying them to your project.
You can use the Agentic UI Generator for:
- Initial code generation: Quickly add components to your app to speed up the initial development.
- Component configuration: Enable or disable specific component features, or fine tune the configuration through prompting. More complex configurations are possible but may require additional manual work to be production-ready.
- Dummy data generation and data binding: Quickly add data to your app for testing and prototyping purposes. Avoid exposing or providing access to your proprietary or production data to AI-enabled tools.
- Step-by-step explanations: Understand the solutions provided by the Agentic UI Generator through the detailed explanations (depends on the tool, mode, and model used). To further develop your knowledge, check the respective documentation.
- Preliminary troubleshooting: Resolve obvious and easy-to-solve issues affecting your code. For more complex issues, look for assistance from the community or contact the support team.
The Agentic UI Generator is not intended for styling and theme customization. If you are looking for AI-powered styling and theming, check out ThemeBuilder.
Recommendations
Consider the following recommendations when working with the Agentic UI Generator:
- When switching between tasks and files, start a new session in a new chat window to avoid polluting the context with irrelevant or outdated information.
- At the time of publishing, Claude Sonnet 4 and GPT-5 produce optimal results.
- Sometimes, the Agentic UI Generator might generate custom styles. To avoid any custom styling, include a similar statement in your prompts:
Don't add custom CSS styles.
Usage Limits
Access to the Telerik ASP.NET MVC Agentic UI Generator depends on your Telerik license type:
-
Subscription License
- A Subscription is the primary license that grants full access to the Agentic UI Generator.
- Includes a virtually unlimited number of requests, with a fair use threshold.
- Best for ongoing and high-volume usage.
-
Perpetual License (Limited Access)
- Perpetual license holders have no access to the Agentic UI Generator by default.
- You can start a 30-day AI Tools trial to access the Agentic UI Generator.
- After the trial expires, access is no longer available unless the Perpetual license is converted to a Subscription license.
-
Trial License
- Reactivating the same trial for a new release does not grant additional requests.
- Designed for evaluating the feature before purchasing.
- New users will start a trial automatically.
All Telerik AI tools share a single request limit for your Telerik account. For example, requests made through the Telerik ASP.NET MVC MCP server are counted toward the same overall usage quota.
When using the Telerik ASP.NET MVC MCP server, one prompt may trigger several requests, depending on the prompt complexity.
Privacy
The Telerik ASP.NET MVC Agentic UI Generator operates under the following conditions:
- The Agentic UI Generator does not have access to your workspace and application code. Note that when using the Telerik MCP server (or any other MCP server), the LLM generates parameters for the MCP server request, which may include parts of your application code.
- The Agentic UI Generator does not use your prompts to train Telerik AI models.
- The Agentic UI Generator does not generate the actual responses and has no access to these responses. It only provides a better context that helps your selected model (for example, GPT, Gemini, Claude) provide better responses.
- The Agentic UI Generator does not associate your prompts to your Telerik user account. Your prompts and generated context are anonymized and stored for statistical and troubleshooting purposes.
- The Agentic UI Generator stores metrics about how often and how much you use it in order to ensure compliance with the allowed number of requests that correspond to your current license.
Make sure to also get familiar with the terms and privacy policy of your selected AI model and AI client.
Telerik Document Processing AI Coding Assistant
You can also use the Telerik Document Processing AI Coding Assistant to generate high-quality code samples and speed up your development. Read the full guide in the dedicated DPL AI Coding Assistant article.
