# The Future of UI Design is Agentic Design

**[UX Planet](https://daily.dev/sources/uxplanet)** · 7 min read · 21 upvotes · 1 comments

## Summary

Anima Agent is a Figma plugin that uses AI (defaulting to Claude Sonnet) to generate UI designs from text prompts. Three practical scenarios are covered: creating a new mobile app design from scratch, generating variants of an existing design, and building screens using components from an existing design system. The tool produces auto-layout-ready Figma frames quickly, though outputs may have visual defects requiring manual cleanup, and components generated from a design system are detached rather than true Figma component instances.
