I noticed a usability issue with the Figma Agent placement. Since the Agent icon appears on the right side of every frame, it often overlaps the area where users expect to grab the resize handle. While resizing frames today, my cursor repeatedly landed on the Agent instead of the transform handle, which disrupted the interaction.

Possible improvements:

  • Move the Agent to a corner of the transform bounding box.
  • Keep the current alignment but add more spacing between the frame edge and the Agent icon.
