Changelog

Attach any file to agent chat with the paperclip, or drop or paste it in, and your agent opens it as it works.

• Pages that agents create in parallel land in separate spots on the canvas.
• Pages and components created at the same time get distinct names.
• The component editor highlights what your agent changes as it works.
• Fixed issues with agent edits to components applying one variant's styles to every variant.
• In the desktop app, Claude can save temporary files and its own memory while working in your codebase.

Place pages anywhere on the canvas, marquee selection by dragging to select several pages at once, and hold ⌥ while dragging to duplicate a page.

Agents now create and edit your components directly, starting from a template or an existing component, the same way they work on pages. Works with Subframe MCP.

• Fixed issues with exported images cutting off content that overflows the page.
• Agents apply your theme's corner, shadow and typography styles correctly.

We've revamped how agents design on the canvas to support parallel, direct editing that you can watch in real-time. Start a new chat in Subframe or via the Subframe MCP to see agents create multiple design variations side-by-side and make targeted edits directly on the canvas.

• Fixed issues with very tall pages repeating in exported images.
• Fixed issues with agent chat replies going missing after your agent runs a command in the background.
• In the desktop app, Claude finishes requests that commit and push your code.
• In the desktop app, stopping Codex also stops the commands it started.

Select an element on the canvas and ask agent chat to change it, and the agent edits exactly what you selected.

• Fixed issues with pages designed by agents crashing the editor when opened.
• When capturing designs from browser, bold or colored text inside links and labels keeps its style.
• Requesting a canvas name when working with an agent now applies it over Subframe MCP.

Ask the agent to export a design as an image, then preview and download it straight from the conversation.

Opening a Subframe link from an external app now opens directly in the desktop app in that project's window.

• Improved canvas performance on large designs.
• Page actions show when you hover a page's title bar on the canvas.
• Page links from Subframe MCP open on the canvas with the page selected.
• Codex models load in the desktop app even with a long Codex history.

The motion library has 21 new animation examples and liquid WebGL shaders for your agent to build with.

• Switching tabs keeps your selection in the desktop app.

• Fixed "Request too large" errors in long agent chats with many screenshots.
• Quitting the desktop app while an agent works now shows as stopped instead of running with no output.

When a new version of the desktop app is ready, click Update in the title bar to restart and install it.

• Agent edits to a component with variants keep the other variants' styling instead of resetting them.
• Agents edit designs faster over Subframe MCP.
• The desktop app now reconnects on its own after a network drop.
• Sign-in links, like connecting an MCP client, open the page directly when you're already signed in.

• Improved load times when opening Subframe.
• Connecting your Codex agent in the desktop app now works even if you've never run the Codex CLI.

Open more than one window in the desktop app to work on several projects side by side. Choose File → New Window or press ⌘⇧N (Ctrl+Shift+N on Windows). A link to another project opens in that project's window, and your windows reopen where you left them after a restart.

You can now use MCP servers, skills, plugins and CLAUDE.md/AGENTS.md connected through your Claude or Codex subscription directly in Subframe. Run more powerful, personalized workflows in Subframe and maintain context when working with agents across apps.

Give your agent a library of open-source React animations, Motion components and WebGL shaders to build from. Install the Motion MCP in Claude, Codex or Cursor, no account required. Works with Subframe MCP.
