Figma introduced a new markdown editor called Figma Specs that lets teams write design language, embed canvas elements, FigJam diagrams and code layers in a single file. The specs can live on their own or inside a canvas and serve as a reference for both people and AI agents. At the same event, the company moved its code‑layers tool—previously in private beta since June—into public beta, so users can ask the AI agent to generate or edit code directly from designs.
Why it matters
Design teams can now steer AI agents toward more predictable outputs by giving them a clear, shared design spec.
