* feat: write variables as a CSS token stylesheet
Copy a collection as CSS custom properties or a Tailwind v4 theme from the variables dialog, print it with openpencil tokens, and rebuild design_to_tokens on the same generator. Default modes go in :root or @theme, other modes override under their condition, and aliases are declared again in each mode scope so they follow it.
* fix: give modes that slug alike their own selector and variant
Two modes in one collection whose names reduce to the same slug, such as Dark and dark!, shared one default selector and Tailwind variant, so the later mode silently overrode the earlier one. Slugs are now numbered in mode order, as variable names already are.
* fix(app): record MCP and CLI structural edits as undo steps
The automation bridge ran non-atomic tools, render, and eval without an
undo entry, so Edit > Undo could not revert layers an MCP client or the
CLI created, deleted, or rearranged. Snapshot the page around these
edits as the AI chat does, and skip the entry when nothing changed so
read-only scripts leave the history alone.
* feat(app): activate documents, undo, redo, and change settings over automation
Add activate_document, undo, redo, get_settings, and update_settings to
the app's automation bridge. Settings cover appearance, snapping, canvas
rendering, recovery, and chat preferences, validated with Valibot and
applied through their owning stores; credentials, models, MCP
connections, storage, and tool access stay out of reach.
* feat(mcp): expose document activation, history, and settings tools
* feat(cli): manage documents, history, settings, and tools in the running app
Turn documents into a command group (list, open, new, save, close,
activate), add undo, redo, and settings get/set, and add tool
list/describe/call so every MCP tool runs from the shell, against the
running app or headlessly on a file.
* docs: document app control from the CLI and MCP
* fix: never prompt in the app from automation closes and saves
close_file opened the app's Save changes dialog, which an agent cannot
answer: the call timed out and the dialog stayed open. It now fails on
unsaved changes unless the caller passes unsaved "save" or "discard"
(CLI --save or --discard). save_file and new_document no longer open a
Save dialog for a document that was never saved, report a failed save
as an error, and leave the document untouched when the path is refused.
* docs: describe non-interactive close and save
* fix: address review findings in app automation
Keep a document's source when a save to a new path fails, report
vector-edit undo and redo no-ops as unapplied, echo only the applied
patch from update_settings so writing cannot read settings, reject
tool call --write/--output without a file, and stop settings get from
following inherited keys.
* fix(app): record render undo on the page that receives the layers
A render into a parent on another page was snapshotted against the
target page, so undo left the new layers in place. Snapshot the page
that contains the parent instead, and document that eval edits made
after switching pages stay outside the undo step.
* feat(app): limit automation undo to its own steps and expose design check settings
The undo history is shared with the person in the editor, so an agent's
undo could revert the user's last edit. Automation undo and redo now act
only on steps made through the bridge, and only while they are newest;
otherwise they fail and leave the history alone. Vector edit mode's
session history is off limits entirely. Settings automation also covers
the design check preferences that landed on master.
* feat(core): add visual diff and patch apply tools
diff_visual renders two nodes at one scale through the existing raster export, compares them with pixelmatch, and returns the diff PNG with the changed ratio and region in source-node coordinates. It takes export_image's scale and maxEdge inputs. FigmaAPI gains a CanvasKit-backed raster codec and a pageId export option, so the app and headless CLI decode pixels and render nodes off the current page.
diff_apply applies diff_create and diff_show patches through the Figma API, validates every node before changing any, and supports dryRun and force. diff_show now simulates changes on a detached copy with the same property code. One serializer and parser back all three. diffDocuments compares two documents page by page by name path.
Image tool results now reach models as media with their metadata as text, for any tool rather than export_image alone. diff_create, diff_jsx, and diff_visual join the default AI tool set, and the diff tools are no longer hidden from WebMCP.
* feat(cli): add diff commands and agent diff guidance
openpencil diff create, jsx, show, apply, and visual run the Core diff tools on a file or the running app; apply writes back with --write or --output like eval. diff files compares two documents page by page and exits 1 when they differ.
The chat prompt asks the agent to edit in place and to verify risky edits against a reference copy with diff_jsx, diff_create, and diff_visual. The skill, CLI reference, MCP tool table, and a new Comparing Designs page document the commands and tools.
* feat(core): diff and patch node trees as JSX attributes
diff_create, diff_show, diff_apply, and diffDocuments used a hand-rolled
`key: value` property format that covered about fifteen properties,
matched children by name path, and could not see moves.
Nodes are now projected to the attributes the JSX export prints, and
jsondiffpatch matches children (by ID or by name path) and detects
moves. Patches list `-`/`+` attribute lines per node plus moved, added,
and removed children. diff_apply checks every hunk first, applies
attribute changes through the renderer's prop handling, and changes only
the fields an attribute moves, so IDs, instance links, and other state
survive. diff_show takes JSX attributes instead of a JSON props object.
design-jsx gains sceneNodeAttributes, parseJSXAttributes, and
jsxNodeFields for this, and the export round-trip property table is
shared so every case is also diffed and applied. `diff files` loads its
documents in order so node IDs, and so its patches, are deterministic.
* fix(core): keep diff_apply atomic and diff files honest about differences
- Added nodes render before anything else changes; if one fails, for
example on a missing component, the rendered ones are deleted and
nothing else is committed.
- A hunk with an attribute the renderer ignores fails instead of
reporting "unchanged".
- diffDocuments reports `changed` from page statuses, and a page only
one document has gets its status but no patch, since patches do not
add or remove pages. diff files uses it, so an added empty page no
longer reads as a match.
- diff files rejects a --page neither document has and a --depth that
is not a non-negative integer, exiting 2; diff_create's depth is
validated the same way.
* feat(cli): export Storybook stories beside many documents
Accept several documents, or a quoted glob such as 'src/**/*.pen', and add --beside to write each document's stories, design images, and manifest into the document's own folder, next to the component's code. Documents export one after another, since documents in one folder share its manifest; a failed document is reported and the rest still export. --watch covers every matched document through one queue. Several documents need --beside or --output, and --page takes a single document.
Refs #727
* fix(cli): resolve Storybook export documents by existence, not glob syntax
Deciding between a path and a pattern by looking for glob characters missed
extglobs, so 'src/+(a|b).pen' was opened as a literal filename, and it flagged
an escaped star, so a file genuinely named that way went to the matcher. The
character list also could not agree with Node's matcher: is-glob rejects a
bare '?', picomatch accepts a parenthesised directory name.
An existing path is now that file, and everything else goes to glob(), which
matches a plain path to itself and expands every pattern it supports.

* feat(cli): export components as Storybook stories
Add `openpencil export -f storybook`, which writes one CSF3 `.stories.ts`
file per component set or component. Each variant becomes a story and the
variant properties become select controls, so the story renders the matching
variant; an unknown combination throws instead of showing another variant.
Stories embed the existing inline-style HTML projection, so consumers need no
OpenPencil runtime. `--framework react|vue|html` only changes the render
wrapper and the Meta/StoryObj import. When the document sits under the current
directory, stories carry an `openpencil://` design link for
@storybook/addon-designs.
Refs #727
* fix(pen): size auto-width text from its content on import
Text without a width in an auto-layout parent was imported 10000px wide, a placeholder the app's text measurer replaces. Headless layout keeps stored sizes, so CLI HTML and Storybook exports stretched hugging frames to over 10000px. Import the width as 0 so the importer's existing text-length estimate applies, and headless layout estimates the rest.
* feat(app): follow layer links to other pages
openpencil:// and web ?node= links only searched the current page, so a Storybook story linking to a component on another page reported it missing. When the current page has no match, load the other pages without showing them and switch to the first that carries the name.
* feat(cli): add design images and watch mode to Storybook export
Each story now links to its own variant when the layer name is unique, and carries a 2x PNG of the variant for @storybook/addon-designs, imported so Vite bundles it. --watch re-exports on every save. Re-exports replace the stories a previous export of the same document generated, including those of deleted components, and refuse to overwrite hand-written stories or another document's.
Refs #727
* fix(cli): reference Storybook design images without ambient PNG types
Import design images with new URL(..., import.meta.url) instead of an import declaration, so consumers need no vite/client types to typecheck the stories. Document that exports should run from the same directory.
* fix(app): search other pages for a link without cancelling page switches
The cross-page layer search prepared each page with preparePage, which advances the page-switch generation, so a page switch the user had in progress could be dropped, and every searched page paid for fonts and layout. Add loadPageNodes, which populates a page's layers through the same worker path without touching the switch generation, and report a failed search as an error instead of a missing layer.
* fix(pen): never import width-less text zero wide
Text without a width now imports at width 0 and relies on the importer's text-length estimate, which skipped single-glyph text. Estimate zero-width text of any length.
* fix(cli): harden Storybook export ownership, titles, and links
- A --page export replaces only its own stories, and names files as a full export does, so it cannot delete or overwrite other pages' stories.
- Same-named components on a page get distinct titles, so Storybook story ids do not collide.
- Read the generated header through CRLF line endings, and refuse a source containing a line break, which would end the header comment and start code.
- Link a story only to a layer name no other layer carries.
- Document the --page default for Storybook export.
Refs #727
* fix(app): let a page switch overtake a link's layer search
A link search that loads other pages could resume after the user started switching pages and move them to the matching page. Expose pageSwitchCount, which advances whenever a page switch starts, and abandon the search when it changes. An overtaken search reports neither a match nor a missing layer.
* fix(pen): estimate only omitted text widths
Estimate a width-less text node's width when it is imported, instead of estimating every zero-width text node afterwards, so an explicit width of 0 is kept.
* fix(cli): track Storybook story ownership by document path and page
- Identify the document by its path relative to the output directory rather than a basename or cwd-relative path, so same-named documents do not share stories and the export no longer depends on the working directory.
- Record the page in each story's header; a --page export replaces all of that page's stories and asks for a full export when renumbered file names land on another page's.
- Check every target, including design images, before removing anything, and refuse to overwrite files this export does not own.
- Quote the header fields as JSON with U+2028/U+2029 escaped, so any path stays inside the comment, instead of refusing line breaks.
- Deduplicate titles by Storybook id, which ignores case and punctuation.
Refs #727
* fix(app): focus a searched page only after its switch committed
A page switch the user starts while the link search's own switch is pending can keep that switch from committing. Check that the search's switch was the only one and landed on its page before focusing; otherwise report the search as superseded.
* fix(pen): keep empty text without a width at zero
* fix(cli): remove only the design images a Storybook export generated
Replacing a story removed its whole .design folder, including files someone else put there. Read the images each owned story references, remove just those, and remove a .design folder only once it is empty.
Refs #727
* test(app): cover a page switch still pending during a link search
The previous test committed the overtaking switch, so the page check alone caught it. Advance the switch count without committing, so the test fails without the count check.
* fix(cli): stage Storybook exports and refuse linked design folders
- Write every file to a staging folder inside the output before removing the previous export, then move them into place, so a failed write no longer leaves the export half replaced.
- Refuse a .design path that is not a real folder, such as a symbolic link, before removing or writing images through it, so an export cannot reach outside the output directory.
Refs #727
* refactor(dom-css): print Storybook stories from a parsed template
Story modules were assembled from string fragments, so quoting and
layout were an implicit contract: the CLI found design images with a
regex that only matched double-quoted `new URL("…")` paths.
A story module is now one TypeScript template, parsed once with acorn
and its TypeScript plugin. Data is filled into `$placeholder` nodes and
the module is printed with esrap, which owns quoting and escaping. The
CLI reads referenced design images back through `storyImagePaths()`
instead of matching text. Tests import generated modules and assert
values rather than formatting.
* refactor(storybook): track generated files in a manifest
The export recovered which files it owned by parsing its own output: a
header regex over JSON-quoted strings, line-separator escaping, CRLF
handling, an AST walk for design images, and a path regex in the CLI.
A `.openpencil-stories.json` manifest now records the document and page
behind each generated file. The CLI validates it with Valibot, including
that every listed path stays inside the output folder, and the story
header is a plain note. Story ids use a copy of Storybook's `sanitize`,
tested against the installed Storybook; the previous rule treated `A§B`
and `A-B` as the same story. Export names use es-toolkit's `pascalCase`.
The CLI export command moves into `commands/export/`, dom-css splits
grouping and naming out of the Storybook exporter, and the CLI takes the
framework list from dom-css.
* fix(pen): keep explicit narrow text widths
A post-import pass widened every multi-character text narrower than two
font sizes, including widths the `.pen` file set on purpose, such as
`width: 0`. Omitted widths are now estimated when the text node is
created, so the pass only overrode explicit widths and is removed.

* refactor!: register HTML and Tailwind JSX as IO formats
HTML and Tailwind JSX went around the IO registry: the CLI appended
`html` to its format list and had its own HTML and Tailwind export paths,
so the app's export options offered neither.
Core now registers `html` and `tailwind-jsx` adapters built on a new
browser-safe `@open-pencil/dom-css/export` entry. Export results can
carry assets written next to the main file, which covers standalone HTML
with external images and fonts, and the CLI writes every format the same
way. The CSS object model and Node file access load only when an export
needs them, so the app bundle stays free of the headless CSS runtime.
BREAKING CHANGE: `sceneNodesToTailwindJSX` and `designDocumentToTailwindJSX`
moved from `@open-pencil/dom-css/browser` to `@open-pencil/dom-css/export`.
* refactor(core): share export support and fixed-size options across IO formats
Five adapters export every target and six have no scale or quality
options; the new HTML and Tailwind JSX adapters repeated those blocks
again. Both are now named once and shared.
* fix(core): keep HTML asset paths relative for Windows output paths
The CLI passed the absolute output path as the export file name, and the
HTML adapter only split it on `/`, so on Windows the page referenced
absolute `C:\...\card.assets` paths and assets were written to a doubled
location. The CLI now passes the file name, and the adapter accepts
either separator.
