## Entries

### 1. `.fig` files can't be opened
|
||||
- **Missing:** a reader for Figma's native document (`com.figma.document`, extensions `fig`, `jam`,
|
||||
`deck` in the installed app's `Info.plist`). Figma's files live in the cloud; "Save local copy"
|
||||
writes a `.fig`. Today the only way in is the REST API file JSON (`file.open` / `file.import`),
|
||||
which needs an access token and a separate download of images and variables.
|
||||
- **Evidence:** no `.fig` code anywhere in `crates/format` (searched 2026-10-10); ROADMAP listed
|
||||
".fig import (best effort)" as left.
|
||||
- **Impact:** blocks beta by definition: a designer can't bring existing work across. The single
|
||||
biggest gap.
|
||||
- **Estimate:** 30–60 h for a best-effort reader written from public format knowledge (a
|
||||
compressed binary schema plus a message per node; mapping onto the existing REST importer's
|
||||
model), with a corpus of synthetic `.fig` files saved from the installed Figma. Export to `.fig`
|
||||
is a further 15–30 h and lower priority.
|
||||
### 1. `.fig` files: the import's tail
|
||||
- **Landed (2026-10-11):** `.fig` files open (best effort): the zip, its deflate/zstd chunks and the kiwi schema are decoded generically and mapped by field name onto the REST importer, so pages, the layer tree, geometry, paints (styles resolved), strokes, effects, text with styled runs, vectors (as outlines), auto layout (grid included), constraints, components, sets, instances (expanded from their main with overrides, derived layout and property values), styles, variables with modes and bindings, prototyping and image fills from the archive come across; anything else is a warning (`crates/format/src/fig`). `file.open`,
|
||||
`file.import`, drag and drop, the CLI and MCP's `open_file` read `.fig`; the file is never saved
|
||||
over.
|
||||
- **Missing:** vectors come in as their outlines (fill or stroke geometry), not editable vector
|
||||
networks with per-vertex caps; sticky notes, connectors, tables, slides and other non-design layer
|
||||
kinds are skipped; set-variable and conditional prototype actions, variables bound to fields other
|
||||
than the common ones, non-flexible grid tracks and video fills aren't read; text lays out again with
|
||||
local fonts. Nothing has been checked against real-world files yet (gap 3). Export to `.fig` is
|
||||
not started.
|
||||
- **Evidence:** fixtures generated in code (`crates/format/src/fig/tests.rs`: kiwi round trips,
|
||||
every mapped feature, truncation, bit flips and junk never panic); `crates/engine/src/fig_import_tests.rs`.
|
||||
- **Impact:** existing work can be brought across, but only real files will show how much of it.
|
||||
- **Estimate:** 8–15 h for the read tail (vector networks, the skipped layer kinds that matter,

real-file fixes); export to `.fig` a further 15–30 h and lower priority.

Why the canvas still shows sRGB: wgpu 30 can present Display P3 or extended-range sRGB surfaces (Metal, DX12, Vulkan, WebGPU canvases), but eframe/egui-wgpu 0.36 configure an 8-bit sRGB surface with no option for the format or colour space, and egui's renderer writes sRGB-encoded UI colours; showing P3 needs those two upstream (or a patched egui-wgpu).
