Question

Too high AI credits used for creating a plugin, even for all failed attempts, and final out is unusable

I was trying to create a simple plugin with the Figma Agent after having viewed your tutorial on how to create generative plugins with the Figma Agent. Unfortunately I lost total 2500+ AI credits, i.e. I had balance of 3242 AI credits before giving the prompt for creating the plugin. 

After 3 unsuccessful attempts by the Agent (each time the generated Plugin threw up errors which did not make sense, but still consumed a lot of AI) each generated version never gave me a proper output wherein I could use the plaugin. My AI balance reduced from 3242 to 690, which is a total of 2,552 credits being used for an output plugin which is a complete waste of time & credits. 

I request the support team to please look into this issue, and reverse my AI credits balance. 

Thanks & Regards,

Andrews

Hi ​@Andrews Joseph, welcome to Figma Forum and thank you for taking the time to lay this out.

This is worth a closer look. Since each version of the plugin threw errors, I’ve connected you with our Technical Quality team so they can dig into the plugin issue and the credits used. I’ve opened case: 2204836, and emailed you with steps for sharing your file securely.

For reference, these articles cover how generative plugins are built and tested with the Figma agent, along with best practices for AI credits:

 

Again, thanks for your report and for your patience as we follow up on this. 🙏🏻
