Zeplin
Developers ask about design specs, color values, and typography. Your AI agent pulls the answers directly from Zeplin projects, eliminating back-and-forth with designers. Screen annotations, styleguide tokens, and component details served up instantly.
Your AI agent navigates Zeplin projects, fetches design tokens, manages screen annotations, and keeps styleguides in sync during live conversations with your team.
Zeplin
Real scenarios where AI agents eliminate the friction between designers and developers, turning Zeplin into an always-available design reference desk.
A frontend developer asks 'What are the exact color values for the primary buttons in Project X?' Your AI Agent queries the Zeplin project colors API, retrieves the full color palette with RGBA values and token names, and presents them in a copy-paste ready format. The developer gets accurate specs without pinging the design team or searching through Zeplin manually.
A QA engineer preparing for a sprint review asks 'What notes did the designer leave on the checkout screen?' Your AI Agent fetches all annotations for that screen from Zeplin, lists each note's content and position, and flags any unresolved comments. The engineer builds their test cases from designer intent without leaving their workflow.
A design system manager says 'Add a new color called Warning Orange with RGB 255, 152, 0 to our shared styleguide.' Your AI Agent creates the styleguide color in Zeplin with the exact values and name provided. The color appears in the shared styleguide immediately, available to every project that inherits from it.

FAQs
The agent uses Zeplin's Project Colors API to fetch all defined color tokens for a given project. Each color includes its red, green, blue, and alpha channel values, plus its assigned name and optional source ID from Sketch or Figma. The agent can also access styleguide-level colors that are shared across multiple projects.
The agent supports both read and write operations. It can update color RGBA values, modify text style properties, create new styleguide colors, and update screen annotations. You control which write operations are allowed through your Tars tool configuration and Zeplin API key permissions.
The API key needs access to the projects and styleguides you want the agent to reference. Zeplin API keys inherit the permissions of the account that created them. For read-only access to specs, a standard member key works. For write operations like color creation, admin-level access is recommended.
No. Tars queries Zeplin's API in real time during conversations. Screen data, color tokens, text styles, and annotations are fetched live and used only to generate the agent's response. No design assets or project data are cached or stored in Tars databases.
The agent retrieves all annotations on a given screen, including content, position, and type. While the API returns annotation metadata, filtering by specific author requires post-processing. The agent can list all notes and you can identify authorship from the annotation details provided.
Opening Zeplin means navigating projects, finding the right screen, and manually copying values. Through Tars, your developers ask in plain language and get precise answers instantly. The agent handles project navigation, data extraction, and formatting. It works inside Slack or your existing chat tools, no context switching required.
Yes. The agent can query different project IDs within the same conversation. Ask about colors in one project, then switch to screen annotations in another. Each API call targets the specific project ID you reference, so cross-project queries work seamlessly.
In your Tars dashboard, navigate to Tools and select Zeplin. Enter your API key from the Zeplin developer settings page. Once connected, attach the Zeplin tool to your AI Agent Gambit. The agent will call Zeplin's API whenever team members ask design-related questions during conversations.
Don't limit your AI Agent to basic conversations. Watch how to configure and add powerful tools making your agent smarter and more functional.
