Figma’s design agent, now with custom tools and greater context
Prompting gets you started. Custom tools, real context, and skills take the design agent further—so what ends up on the canvas actually looks like you.
AI tools such as Gemini, Claude, Cursor, and Figma’s design agent help designers move beyond static mockups to build working plugins and functional tools that support content generation, layout automation, data visualization, and other workflow extensions.
The designer defines the workflow problem worth solving, shapes the user experience, tests whether the tool behaves correctly, and decides what is useful enough to keep. AI accelerates scaffolding and implementation, but product direction and quality control stay human.
AI coding assistants generate the initial Figma plugin structure, UI panels, and boilerplate logic so designers can move from idea to working prototype faster.
Cursor / GitHub CopilotAI helps draft and refine prompt templates, content-generation rules, and interaction logic for the plugin’s core workflow before manual testing and tuning.
Claude / GeminiAI assists with troubleshooting plugin behavior, API calls, and edge cases so the designer can ship a more reliable tool without a full engineering handoff.
Cursor / ClaudeI help companies navigate AI adoption -- from strategy to production. Whether you are building your first LLM-powered feature or scaling an agentic system, I can help you get it right.

I shipped with AI for the first time.
It’s usually part of my workflow for brainstorming or iterating flows but this time I built a functional tool.
As a Product Designer, I’ve always felt the friction of leaving Figma to brainstorm content copy. It felt like I was leaving my flow state.
So I decided to bridge that gap.
Meet In-flow—a Figma plugin that lets you use Gemini AI directly on your canvas.
Why it matters:
- Stay in the zone: No more jumping between tabs to find the right copy.
- Iterate faster: Generate and test UI copy in seconds, right where you design.
- Seamless Process: It keeps your focus on the experience you're building.
This project expanded how I see my role. By using an AI-native workflow (Gemini + Claude + Cursor), I was able to do more than a static mockup and build a functional tool.
Great design isn't just about how it looks; it's about the solution it aims to provide.
