What

The /design command no longer has its "canvas" mode. That mode loaded design canvas files and let Claude start /design on its own. Now Claude can never start /design by itself; only you can run it.

Why

The design canvas path is gone from this command in the terminal, so /design runs only when you type it.

Something disagreesSomething we can check disagrees with this entry, or the writer said they could not settle it.
The writer flagged doubtIt is unclear whether the canvas mode moved somewhere else or was removed entirely.
