Figma moved its design agent out of beta and added tools for supplying design system guidelines, finding context across its platform and following collaborators' agents on the canvas. Library owners can upload markdown files that tell the agent how their teams use components and styles.

The agent can find and insert material from FigJam, Figma Slides and Figma Design. Figma says it also improved instruction following and longer-running tasks. Availability covers Full seats on Professional, Organization, Enterprise and some Education plans, with limited access on Starter. Collab, Dev and View seats can use the agent in their drafts.
