Question

The Figma agent isn't reading comments

The Figma agent isn't reading comments. I used to use the Figma agent to change text in the layout; it was convenient when the agent would read a comment and replace the text automatically. Now, it just says there are no comments, even though there are actually plenty of comments in the frame. The agent doesn't see them—have you encountered this situation?

Hey ​@Ozhet Dosmakov, welcome to the Figma Forum — happy to dig into this with you.

Thanks for flagging this. Reviewing comments is indeed something Figma agent is meant to do: "summarize, sort, and take action on comments in the design file" is listed as supported in Work with the Figma agent in design files.

I tried to reproduce what you described in a test file on my end and couldn't hit that “there are no comments” error. This may mean the cause is something specific to your setup or the way the prompt is landing.

A few things that would help me narrow it down:

  1. How are you pointing Figma agent at the comments? Selecting the frame and using the on-canvas prompt box, or the Agents panel in the left sidebar? And are you describing the comments in your prompt (something like "apply the comments on this frame"), or pasting comment links into the chat?
  2. Can you provide the prompt you're using — the one that worked before and doesn't now? Even roughly worded is useful.
  3. Is it every file, or just this one? And roughly when did it last work for you — this week, last month?

 

If you can grab a short screen recording of it happening, that'll help me get on the same page as well.

Completely understand if you'd rather not share file details on a public thread. Our Customer Support team can look at the file directly as an alternative. To share the file securely, head to the Support Hub →  type “Report a bug” → Start a chat, and include your impacted file by sharing it with support-share@figma.com with “Can View” access.

Keep me posted on how it goes. 🙏🏻
