Watch a new design take shape before its first page exists
New
Watch the first build take shape. While a new design builds and there is nothing to preview yet, the preview area shows "Build so far": the files the agent wrote this run, newest first with their size and age, and the first lines of the latest file it wrote. A line above the list says whether the main page is not written yet, is still the template's starter, or is written and loading. Runs past five minutes add a note that long builds are normal for multi-screen designs.
See the design before its first page exists. Once the agent has saved stylesheets, "Design so far" appears beside the file list: the palette, typefaces and components such as buttons, cards, chips, inputs and toggles that those stylesheets define, drawn with the agent's own styles. It is labeled as a sample composed from the saved stylesheets, not a screen the agent wrote, and stays hidden until there is something to show.
Improved
Template sample content no longer stands in for your design. A new design keeps showing the build until the agent's own work lands, instead of flashing the template's sample content. This now covers editor-based design types such as Pixel Sprite, Diagram and Map, where the agent adds files rather than rewriting the main page. If a run ends without the agent making anything, the preview says so and names what is missing, such as the sprite or the diagram.
Pixel Sprite opens on the sprite being drawn. During a run the editor follows the newest sprite the agent wrote, rather than the sample sprite. It stays on a file you opened yourself and never switches away from unsaved edits.
Fixed
No false preview warnings before the first preview. Until a design has displayed once, the preview no longer shows "The update didn't answer in time", "Apply pending update" or the live strip, and it no longer tries to load a main page that does not exist yet.
Slow first previews get time to load. A heavy first page is no longer reloaded over and over while the agent keeps writing. Each retry waits longer before trying again.
