Design platform Figma introduced new features at its first Config event in India designed to help AI agents better adhere to brand design rules and produce predictable results.

Figma Specs and Markdown-Based Editor

Figma introduced a new Markdown-based editor called Figma Specs to allow companies to easily define their design language. This document serves as a common reference source for teams and AI agents.

New Tools for AI Agents

Introduced to guide the non-deterministic nature of artificial intelligence, these tools aim to ensure agents fully comply with brand guidelines and deliver more consistent results.

Code Layers in Open Beta

Figma announced that it has moved the code layers feature, which enables the creation of more interactive prototypes, into open beta for users. This allows users to convert designs into code.

Payload Integration and Additional Tools

Supported by integration with the open-source headless CMS platform Payload, the process of creating dynamic websites is streamlined, while the platform integrates with over twenty new tools via MCP.
