AI Chat

Press ⌘J (Ctrl + J) to open the AI assistant. Describe what you want — it creates shapes, sets styles, manages layout, works with components, and analyzes your design.

Setup

1. Open the AI chat panel (⌘J)
2. Click the settings icon
3. Add a model and configure its provider, model ID, credentials, and capabilities
4. Save the model and assign it to Design agent

You can configure multiple reusable models and separately assign models for design work, reviews, fast tasks, and image input. Models using the same provider connection reuse its stored credential.

No backend, no subscription — your key talks directly to the provider. Browser requests are subject to each provider's CORS policy, and model deployments vary in how reliably they stream tool calls. See BYOK provider and model compatibility for measured results and reproduction steps.

What It Can Do

The assistant has 90+ tools across these categories:

• Create — frames, shapes, text, components, pages. Renders JSX for complex layouts.
• Style — fills, strokes, effects, opacity, corner radius, blend modes.
• Layout — auto-layout, grid, alignment, spacing, sizing.
• Components — create components, instances, component sets. Manage overrides.
• Variables — create/edit variables, collections, modes. Bind to fills.
• Query — find nodes, XPath selectors, read properties, list pages, fonts, selection.
• Inspect — get_jsx for JSX roundtrip view, diff_jsx for structural diffs, describe for semantic role and design issue detection.
• Analyze — color palette, typography audit, spacing consistency, cluster detection.
• Export — PNG, SVG, JSX with Tailwind classes. Vision-based verification via export_image.
• Vector — boolean operations, path manipulation.

Visual Verification

The assistant can verify its work visually. After creating or modifying designs, it uses export_image to capture a screenshot and checks the result against the original request. This catches layout issues, missing elements, and color mismatches that text-only responses would miss.

Example Prompts

• "Create a card with a title, description, and a blue button"
• "Make all buttons on this page use the same border radius"
• "What fonts are used in this file?"
• "Change the background of the selected frame to a gradient from blue to purple"
• "Export the selected frame as SVG"
• "Find all text nodes with font size less than 12"
• "Describe the selected component — what role does it look like?"
• "Show me the JSX for this frame"

Tips

• Select nodes before asking — the assistant knows what's selected.
• Be specific about colors, sizes, and positions for precise results.
• The assistant can modify multiple nodes in one message.
• Use "undo" in the editor if you don't like the result — AI mutations support full undo.
• All layout is recomputed automatically after each tool execution.
