Design software platform Figma has introduced new features designed to define and control how autonomous AI agents operate across its workspace. Alongside agent governance tools, the company announced the open beta release of its code layers feature, bridging design files with functional frontend code. The updates aim to give product teams greater programmatic control over automated design modifications while ensuring structured integration with developer environments. By embedding dedicated interfaces for AI workflows, Figma is positioning its collaborative ecosystem to support agentic AI systems that interact directly with canvas assets, design tokens, and production codebases.
