@Mentions & Mobile Generate

This release is a big one. FAUNA's rebuilt narrator onboarding goes live, you can now reference any node directly in your prompts with @, a mobile Generate page ships, and canvas color tags arrive for organizing large workflows.

📦 New

    in Prompts — type @ anywhere in a prompt box to reference another node on your canvas.

    A searchable picker appears, and dropping in a chip creates an animated edge from source to target. Chips are click-to-navigate, copy/paste-safe, and resolve correctly across image, text, and video models.

  2. Mobile

    Generate — a standalone generate flow built for phones, with full-screen model picker, mode switcher, client-side credit checks, and a 4-image default (everything tuned for thumbs).

  3. Canvas

    Color Tagging — tag blocks with colors, filter the canvas with glow and border highlights, and bulk-download everything sharing a tag.

  4. Model

    & Parameter Badges in FAUNA chat — see at a glance what's running on each response.

  5. Seedance

    2.0 Fast video models available on the model picker.
