Claude Code now carries notices about standalone Claude Design (claude.ai\/design) shutting down.\n\n- A message says standalone Claude Design closes by December 14, 2026 and now lives in Claude.\n\n- A sign-in notice, shown when signing in for `\/design-sync` or `\/design` consent, says the standalone sign-in still works until then and points to a support article.\n\n- The description of the Claude Design project tool now tells Claude that if the server refuses a call because standalone Claude Design or the project has closed or moved, it should give you the server's message as written and stop.\n\n**Why**\n\nIf you use Claude Design from Claude Code, you now get a dated warning, and when a project is unavailable you see the server's own explanation instead of Claude retrying or guessing.\n\n- Area: Notices\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 3\/5\n- Signal: 3\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
