A startup tip pointing at /design for UI work

A startup tip pointing at a /design command for mocking up UI is present but nobody sees it.

A tip suggesting /design before building UI needs an allow_design_sync entitlement plus a flag defaulting false, so it is inert.

What

A new startup tip with the internal id claude-design-command suggests running the /design command before building UI, reading "Working on UI? Run /design to mock up a few directions before you build". It is present but inert in this build: showing it needs the allow_design_sync account entitlement and then a feature flag whose fallback is false, so no one sees it yet. Alongside it, the tip engine gained two general behaviours that apply to all tips.

Details
  • The tip carries priority 1 and will not reappear for 15 sessions once shown.
  • The second gate is tengu_omelette_fouet, and with its fallback of false nothing in this build turns the tip on; the gate function itself shipped in 2.1.235, and only the tip is new here.
  • Tips that advertise a command are now shown only when that command actually exists in the running build.
  • The tip engine skips any tip recorded in its failed-tips list, so a tip that could not be displayed is not retried.
  • This is a distinct tip from the existing claude-design-contextual, which links to a claude.ai URL and is gated by tengu_cedar_plume.

Feature flag
tengu_cedar_plume 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.

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_cedar_plume, 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.
