Looks pretty good, anyone use it yet?

Claude summary:
Figma's design agent launched today — it lives directly on the canvas and in the left rail, no separate setup required.
It's design-system-aware — the agent has deep context on your components, tokens, variables, and standards, unlike third-party tools that lack that native access.
Key canvas interactions: start a prompt from any design layer, run parallel prompts to explore multiple ideas simultaneously, and make manual edits while the agent iterates alongside you.
Explore directions faster — generate multiple stylistic approaches or information architectures at once; steer outputs by `@`-mentioning specific tokens, variables, or components.
Automate bulk busywork — rename variables, swap components across screens, repeat padding changes across flows, populate frames with realistic content, convert screens to dark mode.
Design system maintenance — bulk-update descriptions, tags, naming conventions, and auto-document components with all their states and variants.
Works with feedback — summarize comments, identify themes, model stakeholder perspectives, distill long comment threads into action plans.
MCP server relationship: the agent is for canvas work; the MCP server + `use_figma` is for moving work between code and Figma.
Currently in beta rollout — no credits consumed during beta; AI credits apply at GA. Available for Full seat users on Professional, Organization, and Enterprise plans.
