What This Skill Does

Connect to Figma via MCP (Model Context Protocol) to fetch design context, screenshots, variables, and assets. Translates Figma nodes into production code — bridging design and implementation.

When to Use It

  • Implementing UI from Figma designs (design-to-code)
  • Fetching design tokens, colors, typography from Figma variables
  • Extracting assets and screenshots from Figma files
  • Understanding component structure from Figma node trees
  • Setting up or troubleshooting Figma MCP connections

Key Capabilities

Design Context Extraction

Pull component hierarchies, layout properties, spacing values, and visual properties directly from Figma files using node IDs or URLs.

Code Generation

Translate Figma designs into production-ready code with accurate spacing, colors, typography, and component structure.

Asset Management

Export images, icons, and other assets from Figma at various scales and formats.

Best Practices

  • Use Figma component IDs for precise node targeting
  • Extract design tokens (colors, spacing, typography) as variables rather than hardcoding values
  • Verify generated code against the original design visually
  • Keep Figma URLs and node IDs in project documentation for reproducibility
