openpencil/CHANGELOG.md

Changelog

Unreleased

Breaking changes

• The desktop app now requires macOS 13 or later; the web app supports Chrome 111, Edge 111, Firefox 128, and Safari 16.4 or later.
• sceneNodeToJSX and selectionToJSX in @open-pencil/core produce only OpenPencil JSX, and JSXFormat and JSXExportOptions are removed. For Tailwind JSX, use sceneNodesToTailwindJSX(graph, nodeIds) from @open-pencil/dom-css or the browser-safe @open-pencil/dom-css/export.
• Color conversion and management and text/layout direction helpers moved from @open-pencil/core/color and @open-pencil/core/text to @open-pencil/scene-graph/color and @open-pencil/scene-graph/text-direction, and @open-pencil/core/bytes is removed in favor of js-base64; the @open-pencil/core root exports are unchanged. @open-pencil/dom-css no longer requires @open-pencil/core, and exportHTMLBundle takes a font resolver in fonts instead of 'assets'; pass one built on exportWebFontFaceAssets from @open-pencil/core/text/web-font/assets to keep font files in standalone exports.

Added

• Swap the component behind an instance with instance.swapComponent(component) in the plugin API, as in Figma.
• Detach an instance from its component with detachInstance() in the plugin API, as in Figma, from scripts run through eval.
• Run scripts written for Figma's dynamic-page mode that call figma.getNodeByIdAsync() or getMainComponentAsync(); both resolve to the same nodes as their synchronous forms.
• Export components to Storybook with openpencil export -f storybook: one CSF3 story file per component set or component for React, Vue, or HTML, with a story and select controls per variant, a design image per variant, and an openpencil:// link that opens the variant in OpenPencil. --watch re-exports on every save and removes stories of deleted components (#727).
• Export HTML and Tailwind JSX from the app's export options and through the IO registry, and export Tailwind JSX from the CLI with -f tailwind-jsx (-f jsx --style tailwind still works). HTML export of a single layer now includes the layer itself, as other formats do.
• Choose PPTX in the Export panel's format list, alongside PNG, JPG, WEBP, SVG, and PDF.

Changed

• openpencil:// and web ?node= links select the layer on another page when the current page has none, switching to that page.
• Generate Tailwind JSX with the same class mapping as Tailwind HTML export, so both describe a design the same way, and write opaque colors as hex in HTML, CSS, and Tailwind output. openpencil export -f jsx --style tailwind now exports a whole page when no --node is given.
• Show download progress with a percentage and transferred size while installing a desktop update, instead of an indeterminate message that lasted until the restart.

Fixed

• Warn about options the paint and effect helpers ignore when rendering JSX instead of dropping them silently, and point blur in effect helpers at radius, the name Figma uses (#736).
• Size groups and boolean operations made through the AI and MCP group_nodes and boolean_* tools to what they contain, as the editor's commands already do, instead of a default 100 × 100 box or the first operand's box (#738).
• Keep a layer where it is drawn when it moves into or out of a rotated or flipped parent, instead of shifting it and leaving it at its old angle (#737).
• Size auto-width text from .pen files to its content in CLI exports, instead of a 10000px placeholder that stretched hugging frames in HTML and Storybook output, and keep narrow widths a .pen file sets explicitly instead of widening multi-character text.
• Keep grid layouts, rotation, inner shadows, every shadow of a layer, layer and background blur, flex grow, right-to-left direction, and sections in HTML export, which previously turned grids into columns and dropped the rest.
• Show what to update instead of a blank window when the browser or system WebView is too old, naming the detected macOS, Safari, Chrome, Edge, Firefox, WebKitGTK, or WebView2 version and linking a prefilled bug report, and explain a failed start the same way (#744).
• Start on macOS 13 with WebKit older than Safari 17.4, which previously failed with Promise.withResolvers is not a function (#744).
• Evaluate the ** operator in the AI and MCP calc tool, which its own description advertised but which the tool rejected. calc now accepts exactly the arithmetic it documents — + - * / % **, parentheses and min max floor ceil round abs sqrt pow — and no longer evaluates undocumented expressions such as random(), factorials, trigonometry, strings, arrays, or property access.
• Show Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Arabic characters in a fallback font when the text's own font is unavailable and another font substitutes for it, instead of drawing missing-glyph boxes (#746).
• Explain in the font issues banner when an installed font, such as PingFang on macOS 15 and later, stores outlines in a format OpenPencil cannot draw yet, instead of spending over a second trying to load each of its styles (#746).
• Render the Medium, Semibold, Bold, and other styles of variable fonts at their named weights instead of drawing Regular or a synthetic bold.
• Load the Bold, Medium, and other styles of macOS system fonts packaged as font collections, such as Menlo, Helvetica Neue, and Avenir Next, instead of reporting them as substituted or drawing a different style (#746).
• Load the Medium, Semibold, Bold, and other styles of installed variable fonts such as SF Pro on macOS instead of reporting them as substituted (#752).
• Ship the MIT license text in every published npm package, and add READMEs for @open-pencil/core, @open-pencil/cli, and @open-pencil/mcp on npm.

Security

• Evaluate calc expressions through jsep and an arithmetic allowlist that never compiles input into JavaScript, replacing the expr-eval dependency and its unpatched critical code-execution advisory (GHSA-q9v2-7m5w-4693).
• Escape layer names and other text properties in JSX and Tailwind JSX export, so text from a document can no longer add attributes or JavaScript expressions that the AI and MCP render and replace tools would execute, and names containing & no longer change when the JSX is rendered back.

0.15.1 — 2026-09-18

Added

• Configure built-in AI and local MCP tool access independently on a Tool access page, including optional extended AI tools, searchable read-only and side-effect groups, and per-target defaults (#584).
• Set the built-in AI's maximum steps per message in Chat settings, including a custom number, with consistent stopping and remaining-step warnings (#573).
• Open documents and jump to a named layer from openpencil://open?file=&node= links, resolving the file against open tabs or a one-time file picker. Path segments match the way the filesystem does: case-insensitively on macOS and Windows, exactly on Linux.
• Open documents and jump to a named layer in the web app from ?file=&node= links, fetching the file from an https: URL without credentials, ignoring the URL fragment, and refusing a document larger than 64 MiB — a ceiling the automation bridge's openFile now shares.

Changed

• Create new documents with the sRGB colour profile, so Display P3 is reserved for documents that declare it.
• Export diagnostics from Settings only, with a retention count you choose. AI requests and tool activity now carry conversation and request identifiers, while chat no longer offers a separate diagnostic log or includes transcript content.
• Replace the demo's legacy reference page with a component library on the first page, including component sets, linked instances, component properties, and the variable collections, and show the standard canvas loading overlay and tab indicator while it is generated instead of an empty canvas.

Fixed

• Store colours edited in the colour picker in the document's colour profile, and convert them on the way to the display, so a Display-P3 document no longer looks different on an sRGB display than on a wide-gamut one.
• Keep Display-P3 documents rendering correctly in wide gamut where the browser supports it and in sRGB elsewhere, fixing the black rectangles and incorrect blend colours, with a dismissible notice when wide gamut is unavailable.
• Classify MCP open_file and close_file operations as read-only hints, and close opened document tabs through the new close_file tool with the usual unsaved-change prompt.
• Let the desktop app use an MCP server you started yourself by allowing the app's own origin by default, instead of requiring OPENPENCIL_MCP_CORS_ORIGIN.
• Explain why the local MCP server did not start — a missing @open-pencil/mcp install, a denied command, an early exit, or an unreachable address — with translated guidance, and find a globally installed server when the desktop app is launched from the system shell.
• Animate the AI chat tool-call disclosure, which expanded and collapsed without motion because its animation classes were misspelled.
• Mark unsaved documents and ask whether to save before closing a tab, the desktop window, or the application, rather than relying on recovery alone.
• Defer AI provider connections and system credential reads until you send a message or use a connected feature, so opening documents and browsing chat history no longer trigger unexpected credential prompts.
• Save and recover documents whose text uses disabled numeric, fraction, or small-caps OpenType features, which previously failed to write a .fig file.
• Update instance text properties on the canvas while typing, with grouped undo for rapid edits.
• Point Homebrew installation instructions to the official openpencil cask and document separate CLI installation.
• Reach the custom model option in the model picker for providers with large model catalogs instead of requiring a search for it.

Performance

• Reduce editor pauses while generating recovery snapshots and exporting text-heavy .fig documents.
• Recompute layout only for the pages an edit affects, instead of every page, when editing a component or its instances.

0.15.0 — 2026-09-16

Breaking changes

• Use MCP SDK v2 server/client types for programmatic MCP integrations. Define custom tools with native Valibot input schemas and execution metadata instead of params, ParamDef, or paramToZod().
• Replace Scene Graph overrides records with instanceOverrides, using separate self and descendants maps. Rename figmaDerivedLayout, figmaDerivedTextGlyphs, and FigmaDerivedTextGlyph to derivedLayout, derivedTextGlyphs, and DerivedTextGlyph.
• Update custom Vue SDK binding providers to implement getBindingId() and handle unresolved. Replace setValue() with prepareEdit(), returning a stable edit key, captured value, setter, and restoration callback.
• Replace Vue SDK useDialogMessages(), dialogMessages, and their catalog keys with the corresponding product-domain message composables and catalogs.
• Use Vue 3.5.41 or newer within Vue 3 for the Vue SDK, and CanvasKit 0.41.1 or newer when supplying its optional CanvasKit peer. Update custom CanvasKit integrations to use PathBuilder and immutable Path operations.

Added

• Expose design inspection and undoable layer-property and variable edits to browser agents through experimental WebMCP in supporting browsers, with explicit Off, Inspect, and Edit access controls in Settings.
• Control custom tool exposure independently through mcp, ai, and webmcp exclusions. Tools are included by default, subject to execution support and user permissions.
• Bind Design JSX spacing, sizing, corners, and typography directly to numeric document variables.
• Define component properties and assign instance values in Design JSX using stable property IDs.
• Save AI conversations and attachment previews locally, switch between chats, rename or delete them, and browse saved transcripts across documents. Choose whether reasoning stays collapsed, expands while thinking, or stays expanded, with animated disclosure controls that respect reduced motion.
• Add a searchable command palette for editor and application actions.
• Search current AI provider catalogs from model pickers, with curated recommendations, recent compatible models, and offline fallbacks.
• Render triangle and line arrow stroke caps on lines and open vector paths, and choose them from the stroke cap picker.
• Expose component properties and instance-swap targets through the Figma API and automation.
• Create, select, move, duplicate, transfer, and delete canvas and frame guides directly from rulers, with undoable edits, measurements, context-menu actions, and .fig round-trip fidelity.
• Open to a unified home with recent and configured storage documents in grid or list layouts, and open multiple selected design files in separate tabs.
• Snap vector points, moved layers, and resized edges to nearby geometry, guides, frame and canvas bounds, and whole-pixel coordinates, with visible alignment guides and persistent snapping preferences.
• Run Pi through AI SDK HarnessAgent as a configurable desktop provider with saved model profiles, secure credentials, existing MCP design tools, and per-profile thinking and permission settings.
• Combine components into variant sets through Figma API scripts and automation.
• Add local AI usage and technical diagnostics, including token telemetry, provider/model summaries, recent failures, configurable retention, export, and clear controls (#588).
• Import, render, edit, resize, select, and export Figma text-on-path layers while preserving their curved glyph layout.
• Show temporary Figma-style distance measurements between selected and Option/Alt-hovered layers (#491).
• Edit Design JSX and HTML/CSS previews in CodeMirror, with theme-aware highlighting, Tailwind viewing, completion, diagnostics, bounded execution, and session-level undo (#130).
• Set provider-specific reasoning effort on supported AI model profiles (#454).
• Show unavailable or substituted document fonts with affected-layer selection and retry actions, and expose font fidelity through the Figma API, MCP, and openpencil fonts [file] --json. Choose warn, strict, or allow font-substitution policies for file-backed CLI raster and PDF exports with --font-policy (#503, #625).
• Add reusable remote MCP connections for ACP agents, with Streamable HTTP endpoints and credential-backed bearer tokens.
• Author and manage multidimensional component variants and published component libraries, including revision previews, linked-instance updates, stable library identities, offline catalogs, storage-backed catalogs, and read-only library definitions (#239).
• Recover unsaved and pathless documents locally, including after closing their tabs, with options to disable recovery and restore or discard retained snapshots (#487, #505, #574).
• Inspect selected designs with a configured Vision model and attach images to AI chat with bounded analysis and previews (#232, #471).
• Pin selected layers as explicit AI chat context, show collapsible reasoning, copy individual responses, and grow the composer with multiline prompts (#13).

Changed

• Refresh the OpenPencil mark across the editor, documentation, browser tabs, installed web apps, and desktop icons, with small-size and dark-background adaptations.
• Explore editable component, typography, and paint comparisons in the demo, with the original examples preserved on a reference page.
• Use compact desktop Home search actions with consistent responsive layout and control sizing.
• Keep pixel-grid rounding invisible while showing alignment guides only for real geometry, objects, and canvas/layout guides.
• Embed images when copying selections into Figma, and preserve geometry, text sizing, component links, variables, modes, and shared styles when pasting within OpenPencil.
• Choose the app theme and whether animations follow the system or stay off under Appearance in General Settings, with live updates and persistent preferences.
• Simplify property panels with fill and stroke style pickers in section headers, concise effect style rows, and collapsed equal corner fields when all four share a variable. Preserve applied and missing styles and remove the redundant Dimensions heading for text layers.
• Open variable pickers below their trigger when space permits, flipping above near the viewport edge.
• Keep AI chat preferences with the model overview and edit models in a fixed-size Settings pane with explicit Save and Cancel actions.
• Match page-list density to the layer tree and add subtle, reduced-motion-aware dialog transitions.
• Fade in streaming Markdown list items and code lines without animating completed responses.
• Vertically center shaped section titles and allow renaming a section by double-clicking its canvas label.
• Load supported online fonts before revealing imported pages, preserve substituted text during editing, and shape canvas labels with Inter typography and shared Arabic/CJK font fallback.
• Complete translated app, accessibility, font, color, file, clipboard, collaboration, chat, vectorization, storage, recovery, component-library, and connection feedback across supported locales, and synchronize document language with the selected locale.
• Separate local MCP server controls, browser WebMCP access, and remote connections in Settings, with inline searchable tool permissions.
• Show translated field errors, hints, and consistent contextual alerts in Settings forms, focus the first invalid field on submission, and explain missing requirements instead of silently disabling Save or Test.
• Pan horizontally with Shift+wheel while preserving native horizontal trackpad movement.

Fixed

• Render four-point diamond gradients, preserve text layout across fill types, and keep image colors accurate on sRGB displays.
• Keep newly created and edited objects visible during zoom instead of replaying outdated scene content.
• Keep property fields and paint previews live during editing, rotated selection labels readable and aligned, and object edges stable when previews settle.
• Show compact bordered section labels with inset nested titles and clearer hover feedback.
• Keep Undo and Redo commands available as edit history changes, without requiring another scene edit.
• Avoid recursive desktop HTTP proxy requests when font downloads intercept Tauri IPC traffic.
• Keep FIT image fills proportional, centered, and fully visible without stretching or cropped edges.
• Preserve edited instance text, including cleared labels, when saving and reopening .fig files.

• Honor explicit Design JSX instance dimensions and preserve authored overrides through component synchronization.
• Route browser Command/Ctrl plus and minus shortcuts to canvas zoom instead of page zoom.
• Resolve $name references in imported .pen fills, stroke fills, font families, dimensions, and spacing without requiring a -- prefix (#563).

• Stop showing a misleading desktop-only warning when web font loading or catalog lookup fails.
• Resolve fallback fonts reliably for cached characters, mixed-language text, and text-case transformations.

• Preserve a frame's auto-layout HUG sizing, variable bindings, and variable modes when converting it into a component through the Figma API or automation (#595).
• Run openpencil import on Node so npm-installed CLI users no longer encounter Bun is not defined (#575).
• Generate recent-file previews from the conventional Cover page without modifying the source file.

• Prevent Windows desktop crashes when loading large system fonts for non-Latin text.
• Preserve open vector segments when the same vector network also contains filled regions (#450).
• Match Figma Plugin API behavior for rescale(), page backgrounds, and nullable visual absoluteRenderBounds (#442).
• Keep imported and pasted Figma instances linked to their remapped source components so later component edits update existing instances (#385).
• Restore native copy, cut, and paste shortcuts in desktop text inputs while preserving design clipboard handling on the canvas.

• Stop local MCP servers after the app disconnects instead of leaving orphaned background processes (#494).
• Prevent unbounded instance duplication when editing Figma-imported or pasted components with serialized or renamed children, keep extra instance children in their intended order, and avoid pasted instances re-linking pre-existing instances during clipboard import.

Performance

• Reduce pauses after repeated frame creation without leaving hidden property edits or popups active.
• Reduce repeated text shaping and scene invalidation while moving and resizing objects, and reuse fitting canvas labels during zoom.
• Reduce unnecessary layout work after automation and Figma API edits by updating only affected layers and containers.
• Keep rapid trackpad zoom reversals and effect-heavy document navigation responsive by cancelling obsolete reconstruction and reusing safe raster snapshots.
• Show the FIG page list from a lightweight Kiwi scan before materializing the full document.
• Avoid redundant collaboration writes when synchronized node fields have not changed.
• Release completed streaming-response state to reduce retained chat memory (#544).
• Open large documents faster by reducing repeated position calculations when finding layers under the pointer (#527).

• Reduce peak memory during .fig export by sharing immutable binary resources with the isolated export graph.

Security

• Protect new real-time collaboration sessions with stronger invitation credentials.

0.14.0 — 2026-08-10

Breaking changes

• Core SDK: Import scene graph types, geometry, coordinate, matrix, snapping, undo, and path helpers from @open-pencil/scene-graph; import .pen parsing from @open-pencil/pen; import synchronous Kiwi decompression from @open-pencil/kiwi instead of the @open-pencil/core compatibility barrel; use uppercase acronym casing in exported identifiers, including JSONObject, JSONArray, JSONValue, RPCCommand, and executeRPCCommand; and use the renamed tool exports importSVG, exportSVG, exportPDF, getJSX, diffJSX, and setPexelsAPIKey.
• Vue SDK: Replace the removed color-picker model helpers with useColorModel(); replace the deprecated FillPickerRoot and useFillPicker() APIs with FillRoot, FillSwatch, useFill(), and a consumer-owned popover; rename FontPickerUi to FontPickerUI; and remove the exported testId prop helper types in favor of semantic component anatomy.
• CLI and MCP SDKs: Use uppercase acronym casing in exported identifiers, including AppTargetCLIArgs, appTargetRPCArgs, loadRPCData, prepareDocumentForRPC, RPCSender, createBrowserRPCBridge, createMCPSessionManager, and createStdioRPCBridge.

Added

• Export selections, pages, and documents as editable PowerPoint (.pptx) files from the File menu, CLI, and SDK. Text, rectangles, ellipses, and lines remain editable; visually complex layers are embedded as images.

• Let AI and MCP tools create arbitrary vectors from SVG path data, validating input without leaving blank layers behind. (#440).

• Improve AI design accuracy by exposing every supported shape, including visible stroke colors and weights in visual descriptions, and accepting supported inline SVG attributes without false warnings. (#445, #447, #448).

• Restore Anthropic AI connections in the web app instead of failing with a browser endpoint error. (#438).

• Reconnect live CLI and automation sessions automatically after an unexpected bridge disconnection.

• Make group and boolean-operation children scale with their parent during resize.

• Edit vectors in opened documents at the correct position, with live fill updates and working undo and redo. (#390).

• Keep duplicated layers independent instead of sharing mutable fills, strokes, bindings, overrides, or vector data, and remove stale bindings when paints are deleted.

• Share public app links from the desktop collaboration panel and send the current document to newly joined collaborators.

• Show only the most specific tooltip when property controls contain nested actions.

• Match regional browser languages to supported locales without selecting a lower-priority language. (#417).

0.13.0 — 2026-05-29

Fixed

• Fix the published CLI package so Bun global installs run the built openpencil binary instead of raw TypeScript sources.

• Greatly improve importing Figma .fig files with complex component systems: badges, avatars, icons, links, input fields, lists, date pickers, nested instances, component swaps, and variant properties now open much closer to their original Figma appearance.

• Fix missing or white content in imported .fig files caused by unresolved Figma variable bindings, including image/avatar badges, icon colors, text colors, and variable-backed component overrides.

• Preserve more Figma document details when opening and saving .fig files, including internal component pages, component ordering, page metadata, canvas backgrounds, text layout, glyph rendering, vector geometry, effects, shadows, and instance overrides.

• Keep user edits after opening an imported .fig file: changing size, position, fills, text, or layout now wins over preserved Figma round-trip data when the document is saved again.

• Fix .fig exports so files reopened in Figma or OpenPencil keep their pages, components, instances, text wrapping, icons, avatars, and preview thumbnail intact.

• Fix live canvas updates during move/resize/edit previews so visible scene changes repaint immediately.

• Fix accidental duplicate creation when Alt-clicking without dragging.

• Fix MCP startup in the browser.

• Fix CanvasKit loading outside the browser when project paths contain spaces.

• Render imported Figma layer and fill blend modes such as multiply, screen, overlay, difference, hue, saturation, color, and luminosity.

• Render common imported Figma mask stacks so visible layers above alpha, vector, or luminance masks are clipped by the mask shape, including consecutive mask layers.

• Render Figma-style smoothed rectangle corners, including independent corner radii, and effect blend modes from imported Figma files.

• Improve imported tiled image fills by applying Figma image transforms when repeating image patterns.

• Keep imported Figma boolean operations editable as boolean-operation nodes instead of flattening them to vectors.

• Apply imported variable font axes from Figma fontVariations when rendering text.

• Render more imported Figma visual metadata, including text decoration styles, leading trim, pattern fills, layout grids, page guides, and deterministic fallbacks for raw noise effects.

Performance

• Open large .fig files faster by deferring work for pages you have not viewed yet while still preparing all needed content before export.
• Improve canvas responsiveness during zooming, panning, dragging, and editing by reusing cached scene backing where safe.
• Speed up .fig export for documents with many preserved Figma paint and variable payloads.

0.12.2 — 2026-05-19

Added

• Allow OpenRouter users to enter any model ID from provider settings with cached autocomplete suggestions for tool-capable models, while keeping the curated dropdown as the default when no custom model is set.

Changed

• Use localized app tooltips instead of native browser titles across editor controls, panels, and menus.
• Update Claude Code MCP setup documentation and the docs landing screenshot.
• Ignore non-source Markdown files in the app dev watcher so documentation edits do not reload the running editor.

Fixed

• Route Claude Code stdio MCP requests through the live OpenPencil app connection, including immediate disconnected errors when no document is connected.
• Keep MCP disconnected guidance focused on starting OpenPencil and opening a document.
• Improve agent-rendered JSX compatibility with Figma-style text, alignment, and rotation aliases; strip HTML comments; and report unsupported props from render tools.
• Load exact text font styles after MCP and AI tool mutations so newly created bold/weighted text renders immediately.
• Include text style fields in MCP get_node output so agents can verify generated text accurately.
• Keep provider settings tooltip/popover composition working in WebKit.

0.12.1 — 2026-05-19

Fixed

• Report desktop/MCP package version mismatches explicitly and include package-manager-aware install guidance from the MCP server.
• Support scoped MCP save_file({ path }) workflows while keeping file saving in the desktop app.
• Use native Tauri path handling for save parent directories so Unicode and Windows paths are handled correctly.
• Fix the web font picker so Google Fonts remain available in Safari, local font access is requested on first open when supported, font sources are labeled, and Google font previews load lazily for visible rows.
• Fix background blur rendering so it blurs the backdrop behind a layer instead of applying a no-op content filter, and keep effect parameter controls visible in the properties panel.

0.12.0 — 2026-05-18

Added

• Assets panel — browse, search, and insert document components directly from the left sidebar.
• Component variants — switch instance variants from the right inspector; default variant respects property definitions.
• Figma library metadata — component keys, source libraries, version IDs, descriptions, and docs links are preserved on import/export.

• Text-to-vector conversion now uses shared loaded-font outline geometry across Boolean, flatten, and outline commands.

Fixed

• Fix .fig export of component variant properties and text stretch alignment so designs round-trip correctly through Figma.
• Fix CJK and Arabic text rendering — fallback fonts now load before the first paint instead of showing blank text.
• Fix large .fig files freezing on open — parsing runs in a worker, and the viewport fits to content after loading.
• Improve Figma import fidelity — variable aliases, nested instances, avatar swaps, badge internals, and input text alignment are preserved.
• Improve Figma export fidelity — flipped vectors, stroke geometry, visual overflow, and stroked-shape drop shadows are preserved.
• Fix variant switching so instances update their contents, not just the component reference.

• Fix asset insertion coordinates inside entered containers.
• Fix MCP stdio handshake and eval return values.
• Fix @open-pencil/vue npm imports referencing an unexported core subpath.
• Fix Figma clipboard text compatibility — pasted OpenPencil text keeps editable fixed bounds, line wrapping, baselines, glyph offsets, and Figma edit-mode layout.
• Fix local font matching so requested upright and weighted faces do not fall back to italic or regular faces.
• Fix CanvasKit paragraph rendering to preserve requested text weights and slants.
• Fix nested text editing interactions — drill double-click enters nested text edit mode, and clicking another text node switches edit targets while editing.
• Fix auto-height text edit commits so text bounds and undo state stay in sync.
• Fix Boolean, flatten, and outline operations to reject unsupported image/complex-script sources safely instead of silently dropping geometry.
• Fix outline stroke enablement for stroked descendants inside groups and containers.

Performance

• Event-driven canvas rendering — scene and overlay layers only repaint when their inputs change, replacing continuous polling.
• Shared RAF scheduler coalesces scene and overlay frames into a single animation frame per editor.
• Font-family fallback arrays and downloaded remote fonts are cached to avoid repeated work.
• WebGL draw-call instrumentation only runs while the profiler is active.

• Nested container navigation — each double-click goes one level deeper.
• Dashed border around entered container for visual feedback.
• Layer panel click syncs canvas scope automatically.
• Vue SDK internationalization primitives — useI18n(), locale detection, persisted locale selection, lazy-loaded locale JSON files, and exported locale metadata for custom editor shells.
• Vue SDK docs and public API audit — documented advanced exports (useOkHCL(), variables helpers, viewport and locale APIs), aligned docs with the actual provideEditor() injection model, and expanded release-ready SDK guidance.
• npm release pipeline now publishes @open-pencil/core, @open-pencil/cli, @open-pencil/mcp, and @open-pencil/vue together on version tags.

• Open… now supports .pen Pencil documents through the shared document reader pipeline while keeping .fig as the native save format.
• Display‑P3 document color space pipeline — documents now default to Display‑P3, .fig import/export preserves document color profiles, the live canvas requests P3 surfaces with sRGB fallback, and raster/SVG export paths accept explicit color-space targets.
• Color picker overhaul — unified RGB / HSL / HSB / OkHCL field formats, slider-space-aware track/thumb previews, and better neutral-color editing behavior for fills, strokes, gradient stops, and component fills.
• OkHCL metadata now round-trips through .fig plugin data and integrates directly into the main fill/stroke color workflow with preview gamut diagnostics.
• Vue SDK now exposes reusable color-picker model helpers and solid fill/stroke commit helpers for custom editor shells.
• Update built-in Z.ai and MiniMax model lists — Z.ai now uses the Anthropic-compatible endpoint for GLM coding models, adds GLM-5.1, and MiniMax adds M2.7 / M2.7-highspeed.
• Arabic and RTL support across text rendering, editing, layout, export, and AI tooling — text nodes support Auto/LTR/RTL, auto-layout frames support Auto/LTR/RTL flow, and JSX/AI prompts/tools can now generate and edit both explicitly.

Fixed

• Normalize more visible UI strings for localized app chrome — menus, panels, variables dialog, code panel, chat setup, and editor controls now respect the selected locale instead of falling back to English in common flows.
• Fix imported text rendering in browser and headless export — preserve stored bounds until fonts are ready, restore missing font-loaded guards, use natural width for WIDTH_AND_HEIGHT text, and clip text to node bounds.
• Fix browser/headless rendering mismatch for imported toolbar/instance content by correcting runtime imported layout recomputation instead of diverging browser rendering behavior.
• Fix set_layout tool not defaulting to HUG sizing when enabling auto-layout — frames now shrink/grow to fit children instead of keeping fixed dimensions.
• Normalize font family names on .fig export — strip optical size suffixes (e.g. "DM Sans 9pt" → "DM Sans") so Figma recognizes the font.
• TEXT nodes now default to a solid black fill — previously exported with no fill, making text invisible when opened in Figma.
• Fix save crash when COLOR variable is missing alpha channel.
• Fix console error spam on deployed web app from automation WebSocket reconnect loop.
• Fix headless CLI font fallback — bundled Inter font now ships with @open-pencil/core and loads without a web server.

• Add instance index (componentId → Set<nodeId>) — getInstances() is O(1) instead of scanning all nodes.
• Defer graph event subscription until after layout computation during file open — eliminates redundant syncInstances calls.
• Cache label collection (sections/components) per scene mutation instead of walking the full tree every frame.
• Blocking font loading — fonts load before first render to ensure correct glyphs.

• CLI-to-app RPC bridge — all CLI commands work against the running app when no file is specified. Start the app, then run bun open-pencil tree to inspect the live document.
• VitePress docs site — user guide, reference, architecture, and development docs at openpencil.dev with 6 locales (en, de, fr, es, it, pl), SEO (OG tags, hreflang, JSON-LD, sitemap), and dark theme.

Changed

• Refactor mobile drawer tabs, layout sizing dropdowns, and inline rename to use Reka UI primitives.

• Add shared UI style helpers with tailwind-variants for menus, selects, buttons, and surfaces.

• Unified tool definitions — define once in packages/core/src/tools/, automatically available in AI chat, CLI, and MCP.

• Harden FigmaAPI — hide internals via Symbols, freeze arrays, fix layoutSizing, 30+ new properties and methods.

• Split tools into domain files (read, create, modify, structure, variables, vector, analyze) — easier to navigate and extend.

• Replace inline type definitions with named types (Color, Vector, SceneNode) across the codebase.

• Split 3200-line renderer.ts into packages/core/src/renderer/ with 10 focused files (scene, overlays, fills, strokes, shapes, effects, rulers, labels).

• Add geometry.ts with shared rotation math (degToRad, radToDeg, rotatePoint, rotatedCorners, rotatedBBox).

• Extract isArrayMixed() helper for multi-selection property panels.

• Add motion-v for declarative animations — used in mobile drawer (spring-animated height with pan gestures) and toolbar (layout-animated category switching with directional slide transitions).

• Mobile drawer: replace useSwipe + manual rAF animation with motion.div :animate + @pan/@panEnd; always-on tab state (no more null activeRibbonTab); content stays rendered when closed.

• Mobile toolbar: replace manual scrollWidth measuring + inline CSS transitions with motion.div layout + AnimatePresence directional slide variants.

• Mobile UI cleanup: extract shared colorToCSS util to core, initials to src/utils/text, toolIcons to src/utils/tools; replace hand-rolled dropdowns with reka-ui Popover/DropdownMenu; narrow mobileDrawerSnap type to string union; move magic numbers to constants; disable PWA service worker in dev mode.

• 83 new E2E tests (57 → 140): design panel, code panel, components, copy/paste, multi-page, text editing, keyboard shortcuts, context menu.

• 150 new unit tests (588 → 738): color, undo, snap, vector, style-runs, text-editor.

• 48 new E2E tests (9 spec files) + 26 mutation unit tests + store/canvas test helpers.

• Add data-test-id attributes to AppearanceSection, LayoutSection, TypographySection, VariablesDialog, EditorView.

Fixed

0.7.0 — 2026-03-05

Added

• SVG export — export selections as SVG from the export panel, context menu, CLI (bun open-pencil export --format svg), or MCP/AI tools (export_svg). Supports rectangles, ellipses, lines, stars, polygons, vectors, text with style runs, gradients, image fills, effects, blend modes, clip paths, and nested groups (#46).
• Copy/Paste as submenu in context menu — Copy as text, Copy as SVG, Copy as PNG (⇧⌘C), Copy as JSX.
• Stroke align (Inside/Center/Outside) with clip-based rendering matching Figma behavior.
• Individual stroke weights per side (Top/Right/Bottom/Left) with side selector dropdown.
• Google Fonts fallback — automatically loads fonts from Google Fonts API when not available locally.
• Auto-save toggle in File menu — disable to prevent automatic writes to the opened .fig file.
• Renderer profiler with in-canvas HUD overlay, GPU timing, and phase instrumentation.

Changed

• Replace custom color picker with Reka UI Color components (ColorArea, ColorSlider, ColorField) — adds keyboard navigation and accessibility to the color area, hue, and alpha controls.

Fixed

• CJK text rendering — load a system CJK font (PingFang SC, Microsoft YaHei, Noto Sans CJK) as fallback; falls back to Noto Sans SC from Google Fonts when no system font is available (#48).
• Font registration errors no longer cache invalid font data — loadFont only caches after successful CanvasKit registration.
• Fix render tool failing on Windows + Bun with "Cannot find module" error (#43).
• Fix hover highlighting nodes from internal component pages — scope hit-test to current page.
• Fix hit-testing on transparent frames and groups — empty containers without fills or strokes are now click-through, clipping parents reject hits outside their bounds, matching Figma behavior.
• Fix instance overrides on .fig import and clipboard paste — resolve guidPaths by overrideKey, handle component swaps (overriddenSymbolID), propagate through nested clone chains. Import and paste now share a single override engine.
• Apply Figma component property assignments on import — boolean visibility toggles and instance swaps via componentPropRefs/componentPropAssignments.
• Apply derivedSymbolData sizes on import — containers now shrink correctly when component properties hide children.
• Fix override resolution for nested instance targets — check the current node before searching descendants.
• Fix component property assignments for nested instances — resolve scoped componentPropAssignments inside symbolOverrides via guidPath, handle guidValue for instance swaps, reorder phases so transitive sync doesn't clobber visibility.
• Pixel-perfect vector rendering using pre-computed fillGeometry/strokeGeometry blobs from .fig files — eliminates white gaps between adjacent stroked shapes.
• Stroke outlines on clipboard paste — convert vectorNetwork paths to filled outlines via CanvasKit when geometry blobs are unavailable.
• Apply derivedSymbolData transforms and geometry during import — instance children render at correct scale and position.
• Fix internal pages becoming visible after .fig round-trip — preserve internalOnly flag on export.
• Scope layout recomputation to current page for paste/undo/font-load (major speedup on large multi-page files).
• Show loading overlay until all document fonts are loaded (no more partially rendered text).
• Load fonts when switching pages (previously only loaded for the first page).
• Always show visibility toggle on fill, stroke, and effect rows (matches Figma).
• Fix renderer crash on double destroy when closing files quickly.
• Fix .fig page ordering — use deterministic byte comparison for fractional index positions.
• Fix text truncation using textTruncation field instead of textAutoResize.
• Fix horizontal scrollbar on design and pages panels.
• Style scrollbars for Tauri (thin dark overlay instead of default OS chrome).
• Enable file watcher in Tauri — watch feature was missing from tauri-plugin-fs.

0.6.0 — 2026-03-04

Added

• Multi-selection properties panel — edit position, size, appearance, fill, stroke, and effects across multiple selected nodes.
• Shared values display normally, differing values show "Mixed".

Fixed

• Fix Figma clipboard paste: extract shared kiwi→SceneNode conversion, fixing broken auto-layout, missing gradient/image fills, effects, style runs, and text properties.
• Fix vector rendering on paste — scale path coordinates from Figma's normalizedSize to actual node bounds.
• Fix pasted instances having no children — populate from component via symbolData when both are in clipboard.
• Detect component sets on import — promote FRAME nodes with VARIANT componentPropDefs to COMPONENT_SET.
• Skip internal canvas on paste — components on Figma's hidden internal page populate instances but are not pasted as visible nodes.
• Apply instance overrides on paste — text content, fills, visibility, layoutGrow, and textAutoResize from symbolOverrides.
• Fix auto-layout child ordering — sort by geometric position instead of z-order position strings.
• Load fonts on paste and .fig import — collect font families from text nodes and load into CanvasKit.
• Text measurement in auto-layout — use CanvasKit paragraph metrics for WIDTH_AND_HEIGHT text nodes.
• Recompute layouts after font loading completes.
• Fix PERCENT line height conversion — was stored as raw value instead of pixels.
• Fix InvalidCharacterError when copying nodes with non-ASCII text.
• Load all font weight/style variants needed by pasted text nodes.
• Fix font loading not registering in core cache.
• Fix halfLeading applied to text measurement — enable only for rendering.
• Clear hover on zoom/pinch to keep scene picture cache valid.
• Fix flip buttons using rotation math instead of actual mirroring.
• Fix flip transform encoding — scale first matrix column only (was incorrectly producing 180° rotation).
• Decode flip state from .fig transform matrix on import.

0.5.1 — 2026-03-03

Fixed

  • Boolean operations: boolean_union, boolean_subtract, boolean_intersect, boolean_exclude
  • Vector path tools: path_get, path_set, path_scale, path_flip, path_move
  • Create tools: create_page, create_vector, create_slice
  • Viewport: viewport_get, viewport_set, viewport_zoom_to_fit, page_bounds
  • Misc: flatten_nodes, list_fonts

Fixed

• Fix drop shadow rendering on top of fills — shadow now draws behind opaque content.
• Fix effect property changes not recorded in undo/redo history.
• Fix active tab text invisible against same-color background.
• Fix clipboard "Outside int range" error — pasteID used unsigned int exceeding Kiwi's signed 32-bit field.
• Error toasts are now sticky (don't auto-dismiss), with selectable text, copy button, and close button.
• Truncate long node names in export button.

Performance

• Per-node SkPicture cache for effect rendering — unchanged shadow/blur nodes replay from cache on scene redraws.
• Drop shadows use MaskFilter direct draw instead of saveLayer offscreen buffers.
• Cached ImageFilter, MaskFilter, reusable effect paint — zero per-frame WASM allocations for effects.
• Reuse GL context on panel resize — swap surface without recreating renderer, preserving all caches.

• 7 new clipboard import unit tests (14 total).

Fixed

• Fix Figma clipboard paste: skip non-visual node types (variables, widgets, stickies, connectors).

• Fix undo/redo for Figma paste — no undo entry was recorded; redo duplicated childIds.
• Center pasted Figma content in viewport instead of using original coordinates.
• Compute auto-layouts after clipboard paste (same as .fig import and demo creation).

0.4.1 — 2026-03-02

Changed

• openpencil-mcp and openpencil-mcp-http binaries — install globally via bun add -g @open-pencil/mcp.

Changed

• All packages emit JS via tsgo + fix-esm-import-path — @open-pencil/core and @open-pencil/mcp work on Node.js without Bun.
• Core package exports: bun condition → src (dev), import condition → dist (npm consumers).
• @open-pencil/mcp added to CI publish workflow.

0.3.2 — 2026-03-02

Changed

• Visual regression tests for SkPicture cache: hover on/off cycle, multiple cycles, mouse hover, scene change + hover.
• Type window.__OPEN_PENCIL_STORE__ globally, remove ad-hoc casts from tests.

0.3.0 — 2026-03-01

Fixed

• Fix npm publish: use pnpm for workspace dependency resolution with provenance.
• CLI version now reads from package.json instead of hardcoded value.
