CHILI GraFx Environment API: Descriptions for Brand Kit text styles

CHILI GraFx icon

Brand Kit media and colors already carry an optional description — a short explanation of what the element is for. Paragraph styles and character styles now carry one too.

✨ New & Improved

  • Paragraph styles and character styles take an optional description, such as "body copy, for long-form text"
  • A description belongs to the element, not the theme: you set it on the default theme, and every theme of the Brand Kit shares it
  • It is returned in the resolved theme, so everything reading the Brand Kit sees the same guidance
  • It is optional — existing Brand Kits keep working unchanged, and styles without a description return none

What's next

Descriptions give AI-driven features the context that a name alone does not carry, so that GraFx Genie can pick the right style for a given design. That is not available yet.

🐛 What's Fixed

  • Fixed output generation failing on assets whose preview was reported as ready but never actually created. A preview that returns no result now counts as a failure instead of a success, so the problem surfaces straight away rather than breaking the output job later on.
