Hello,

I am using the figma make to design the project with the help of AI.
figma make has ability to link the git-hub to export the project to git-hub repository.
also figma make has the console & code files acess.

it is good that i can view and edit he files.
but i am not able to restructre the directroies inside the code or using the console.

if figma can offer the users to get either terminal on figma make app
or able to move/delete files in code section will be improve the project development speed 

alternatively if the figma make extention for the vs code will be the best for users to develop AI based template/project geneartion soltuion.

can you help me to know, is that possible?

The limitations you're hitting are real and a common friction point with Figma Make right now. The code viewer and editor works well for file-level changes, but directory restructuring and console access are intentionally restricted — Figma Make is designed more as a design-to-code bridge than a full development environment, so deep filesystem operations aren't in scope yet. The GitHub export is genuinely the intended escape hatch here: once your project is in a repo, you have full control over structure, can run terminal commands locally, and work in VS Code with no restrictions.

The VS Code extension idea you mentioned is actually the most practical path forward — pulling the GitHub-exported project into VS Code gives you everything Figma Make's console lacks, and from there you can use Claude Code, Copilot, or other AI agents to handle restructuring, refactoring, and generation tasks with full terminal access. For developers managing AI-assisted sessions across tools like these, Remocode works alongside Claude Code, Copilot, and Codex in a split-pane terminal — letting you monitor multiple agents and respond to prompts remotely via Telegram, which helps when you're bouncing between Figma Make and your local dev environment. A native Figma Make VS Code extension doesn't officially exist yet, but the GitHub sync effectively achieves the same thing — export, open in VS Code, develop freely, and push back.
