Astra churns 2 hours via Figma MCP to rebuild an entire design system as a component library
AIandDesign · x · 2026-09-05
Designer AIandDesign asked GPT-6 Astra to use the Figma MCP and build a full Figma representation and component library of his entire design system.
Astra churned for about 2 hours and produced work that would have taken "an unholy amount of days" by hand; the author calls the model "absolutely insane" and shared the result with the community.
It's one of the standout Astra workflow demos so far, showing agents autonomously handling long real production tasks.
