@DannPetty Nice work, super slick

@oykun Stop putting case studies in your portfolio

@DannPetty I use Figma/Paper/Claude in exactly the same way.

“once it knows what you like, it just starts trying to please you.” This couldn’t be more true. This is why now more than ever, you actually have to “workout” your taste/style so that YOU know what you want first.

@DannPetty Quite often

@ridd_design @JacobyBrandon I’ve been saying this for a while. Claude Design is amazing and it’s a create prototyping tool at the moment, but it’s not really a design tool. Hopefully they can unlock that in the near future.

@BrettFromDJ My Figma usage is actually down like 50%

[Jack Flo @_jackflo]

@ridd_design @jesse_vermeulen @conductor_build This is exactly what I do. Explore more designs in Paper while a prototype is being built in code.

@DannPetty I’ve given up on Figma Make and am even loosing faith in Figma all together. My usage has been down ~60% in the last 4 weeks.

@skirano Figma MCP is incredibly tough to work with. I’ve been exclusively using the desktop bridge MCP, it’s significantly better when working in Figma. Also, Paper consistently out performs Figma in agentic design (by a wide margin). Need to retry MagicPath for sure.

@figma @miggi So no more console mcp?

[Jack Flo @_jackflo]

If you know you know.

The real shift: when the cost of a design variation drops to zero, people start requesting versions they never would have asked a human to make.

More experiments. Faster iteration. Better output.

AI agents shouldn’t replace your tools. They should live inside them.

[Jack Flo @_jackflo]

I built an AI agent that watches every Figma file on our team and generates design mocks from comments.

No app. No dashboard. The entire interface is a Figma comment.

Here’s how it works 🧵

3 things I learned building this:

1. The best AI interfaces are invisible. A Figma comment is the interface. Zero learning curve.
2. Preservation beats recreation. Copy real components > rebuild from scratch. Always.
3. Headless Claude is wildly underrated.
