What probably matters to youSection of the release

A full design-canvas skill publishing pan-and-zoom artboards with an in-page editor needs a flag that falls back to false plus a capability-advertising Artifact tool.

What

A large new bundled skill drafts designs as .dc.html artboards laid out on a single pan-and-zoom canvas and publishes them as an Artifact, with an editor built into the published page. Saving republishes for everyone only where the artifact grants the self-write capability; otherwise the page is view plus PNG and PDF export. It registers a design slash command. Off in this build: it needs tengu_ethereal_nova, which falls back to false, and an Artifact tool that advertises capabilities.

Details
  • ships as a skill document plus a canvas seeding script and a precompiled editor page payload

Feature flag
tengu_ethereal_nova Off in both readings

The flag server returned off for the account this site reads and for the anonymous baseline. A reading of off cannot rule out a rollout these two readings sit outside of.

These values were read against a different version of Claude Code, so treat them as the nearest reading available instead of one taken on this release.

Since it was published

The entry above is what we published on the day. These lines were added later, as Anthropic's own pages caught up, and they sit beside the original rather than replacing it.

Added since A small documentation edit on Claude apps gateway for Amazon Bedrock, Claude Platform on AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Foundry touched a line naming /design after this was published. | [`/design-sync`](/docs/en/commands#all-commands) and `/design-login` | Not available | Both need claude.ai, which the CLI doesn't contact on gateway sessions, so neither command appears there | claude-apps-gateway see the edit
What has happened since
Flag reading moved The flag server now returns off for tengu_ethereal_nova, read as this account. A reading is one sample. Claude Code evaluates its flags remotely, so no client sees the targeting rule behind a value and this says nothing about your account.
