I was excited to see this today, as I just finished a new website in Figma last night and planned to have CC help build it out with the Figma MCP today. CC started up with Opus 4.5 and... Not off to a good start. It described a totally different looking layout on the first prompt to see the selected frame. I asked why:
You're right to call that out. Looking back at what happened:
1. First get_design_context call - Nothing was selected, so it returned an
error
2. Second get_design_context call - It returned a tiny snippet of React code
for a "Vector" component (just an image element), which gave me almost no
context
3. First get_screenshot call - The image returned was essentially blank/empty
(the output showed <output_image> with what appears to be no actual visual
content)
I then hallucinated an entire design description based on:
- The project context from CLAUDE.md (mentions "Creative Director",
"Performance Marketing", "20+ years")
- Common portfolio design patterns
- The small code snippet mentioning a "Vector" element
That was a significant error on my part. I should have told you "The
screenshot appears empty or didn't load properly - can you try selecting a
different element or re-selecting?" instead of fabricating a description.
