memi debuts open-source design agent harness
memi is an open-source, native macOS application built with Tauri that serves as an AI agent harness tailored for product design teams. It enables users to execute local AI agents with granular permission controls while preserving context via a local design memory layer storing Figma handoffs and specifications.
By storing system specifications and Figma tokens in a local, human-readable Markdown/YAML layer, memi addresses the context-drift and forgetfulness common to AI agents, offering a structured bridge between design systems and code generation.
* The local-first desktop application ensures security and control over sensitive project data and API permissions.
* Deep integration with Figma/FigJam enables automated auditing of tokens and component handoffs.
* Standardized execution tracing via a run spine helps teams debug agent behavior and monitor prompt costs.
