Maximo Design: AI Design Studio for Decks, Pages, Prototypes & Brand Systems
Maximo Design is the AI design studio inside MyTabulon. From your workspace chat, you can design, build, preview, version, and share on-brand design artifacts — pitch decks, landing pages, one-pagers, UI mockups and clickable prototypes, posters, social graphics, and reusable brand/design systems. Artifacts are plain HTML/CSS/JS rendered live, stored on your workspace cloud, and also mirrored in the File Manager. The Design plugin is activated by typing @design in the composer.

- Ask Maximo to create a new design, write file code step-by-step, update assets, or apply a brand system. The Design plugin is activated by typing @design (or /design) in the composer; its tools and guidelines are added to the model context only while active, so an idle plugin costs zero tokens.
- Workflow: design_create once per artifact (set kind to deck, page, prototype, poster, social, image, video, or brand_system) -> optionally design_list_design_systems then design_apply_design_system so a brand contract guides the look -> design_write_files to build while you watch a live preview -> design_save_version for a reviewable snapshot -> design_publish only when you want to share, which returns a public /d/{slug} link. Use design_unpublish to take a design offline.
- Before any design work, Maximo calls design_list (or design_get if the design is known) to see what already exists instead of recreating it.
- Design systems are reusable brand contracts: a DESIGN.md plus design tokens. Apply one to a design and Maximo reads its colors, typography, spacing, and component rules for every artifact instead of inventing styling. A built-in library of seeded global design systems is available out of the box, and you can create custom systems for your company.
- Editing files: design_edit_file is the default for small targeted changes (a copy tweak or a CSS rule) — it replaces old_string with new_string and leaves the rest untouched. design_write_files is for new files, full rewrites, and the initial build. design_read_file_range reads a line range for long files.
- Build quality: Maximo writes complete, modern, self-contained files (for example index.html + styles.css, or slide-1.html through slide-n.html for a deck). It uses semantic HTML, responsive CSS, CSS variables, fluid type, a prefers-color-scheme dark mode where appropriate, and tasteful motion. No build steps — plain HTML/CSS/JS only, with fonts or libraries loaded from public CDNs when truly needed.
- For decks, each slide is a fixed 16:9 frame; for posters and social graphics, Maximo uses the artifact's fixed pixel dimensions so it exports cleanly.
- The design workspace panel has three tabs: Preview (a live iframe with desktop, tablet, and mobile device modes), Code (a file tree with a syntax-highlighted editor and inline edit mode), and Versions (save and restore immutable snapshots). A live 'Maximo is designing' indicator streams AI tool events as it works.
- Exports (PNG, PDF, PPTX, MP4, ZIP) and the visual canvas are available from the design workspace panel when you want a downloadable file. Exports count against the monthly render budget; design video (MP4) is metered in seconds.
- Design files are also synced to the File Manager as a browsable folder tree, so they count against the shared workspace cloud storage and per-file upload limits.
- Each design_write_files or design_edit_file call counts as one AI generation against the monthly budget; exports count against the monthly render budget.
- The visual canvas (a tldraw snapshot) is available on every plan; custom design systems are capped per plan (Free 1, Plus 5, Pro 20, Max 100).
- Limits are enforced by plan: Free gets 2 design projects, 30 AI generations, and 50 exports monthly; design video (MP4) starts on Plus. Plus gets 15 projects, 400 generations, 750 exports, and 2 minutes of video monthly. Pro gets 50 projects, 2,000 generations, 4,000 exports, and 10 minutes of video monthly. Max gets 200 projects, 8,000 generations, 15,000 exports, and 40 minutes of video monthly.
- Design follows the signed-in user's role. Owners, administrators, and members can create, edit, publish, and delete files; viewers can open the Design page but cannot activate the plugin or make changes. Only owners and administrators can delete a design entirely.
- Design content is the user's: Maximo builds what you describe and refuses phishing, malware, deceptive impersonation, or brand-counterfeit designs.
