Figma is a collaborative platform that brings design, code, and AI together in one workspace. Teams use its tools to brainstorm, design and prototype apps, websites, and other products; collaborate on feedback and presentations; and connect design work with development through to production. Figma also offers AI-powered creative tools, developer features, templates, and community resources to help teams move from early ideas to shipped products.

Agent skills
**MANDATORY prerequisite** — load this skill before calling `create_generative_plugin` or `update_generative_plugin`. Use when the user asks to create, author, change, fix, or extend a reusable generative Figma plugin.
Translates Figma motion and animations into production-ready application code. Use when implementing animation/motion from a Figma design — user mentions "implement this motion", "add animation from Figma", "animate this component", provides a Figma URL whose node is animated, or when `get_design_context` returns motion data or instructs you to call `get_motion_context`.
Add or edit 3D transforms — depth, perspective, z-axis rotation, tilt, isometric, and parallax looks that flat 2D rotation cannot express. Use whenever a request reaches into the third dimension — "make it 3D", "add depth/perspective", "tilt/rotate it back", "z-plane", "isometric", "flip it like a card", "parallax", "vanishing point", "receding into the distance", "make it pop out".
Use this skill alongside figma-use when the task involves translating an application page, view, or multi-section layout into Figma. Triggers: 'write to Figma', 'create in Figma from code', 'push page to Figma', 'take this app/page and build it in Figma', 'create a screen', 'build a landing page in Figma', 'update the Figma screen to match code', 'convert this modal/dialog/drawer/panel to Figma'. This is the preferred workflow skill whenever the user wants to build or update a full page, modal, dialog, drawer, sidebar, panel, form, dashboard, list, table, card, header, message preview, or othe
SwiftUI ↔ Figma translation. Use whenever the user mentions Swift, SwiftUI, iOS, iPhone, or iPad — in EITHER direction — translating a Figma design into SwiftUI (design → code), or pushing SwiftUI views / screens / tokens back into a Figma file (code → design). Triggers on phrases like 'implement this Figma design in SwiftUI', 'build this screen in Swift', 'push this SwiftUI view to Figma', 'mirror my Swift code in a Figma file', or whenever a Figma URL appears alongside `.swift` files / an `.xcodeproj`. Routes to a direction-specific reference doc; loads alongside `figma-use` for the code → d
Creates and maintains Figma Code Connect template files that map Figma components to code snippets. Use when the user mentions Code Connect, Figma component mapping, design-to-code translation, or asks to create/update .figma.ts or .figma.js files.
Import or upload local HTML or project files into Figma, choose editable Design frames, runnable Code Layers or standalone Code (also known as Make), and repair imported previews. Use only when the user explicitly names editable Design layers, a runnable Code Layer, or a standalone Code/Make file, or supplies a Figma file key/link as the import destination. Generic code or code-component requests need output clarification before using this workflow.
MANDATORY prerequisite — load this skill BEFORE every `generate_diagram` tool call. NEVER call `generate_diagram` directly without loading this skill first. Trigger whenever the user asks to create, generate, draw, render, sketch, or build a diagram — flowchart, architecture diagram, sequence diagram, ERD or entity-relationship diagram, state diagram or state machine, gantt chart, or timeline. Also trigger when the user mentions Mermaid syntax or wants a system architecture, decision tree, dependency graph, API call flow, auth handshake, schema, or pipeline visualized in FigJam. Routes to type
Build or update a professional-grade design system in Figma from a codebase. Use when the user wants to create variables/tokens, build component libraries, create individual components with proper variant sets and variable bindings, set up theming (light/dark modes), document foundations, or reconcile gaps between code and Figma. Also use when the user asks to create or generate any component in Figma — even a single one — since components require proper variable foundations, variant states, and design token bindings to be production-quality. This skill teaches WHAT to build and in WHAT ORDER
**MANDATORY prerequisite** — load this skill before calling `create_shader` or `update_shader`. Use when the user asks to create, author, change, fix, or iterate on a shader effect, shader fill, custom effect, custom fill, or procedural shader in Figma.
This skill is required to create, read, edit, review, or comment on Figma specs. You must read it when working on a PRD, brief, RFC or any kind of document in either a standalone Figma spec or a Figma spec embedded in a Figma Design or Figjam file.
**MANDATORY prerequisite** — you MUST invoke this skill BEFORE every `use_figma` tool call. NEVER call `use_figma` directly without loading this skill first. Skipping it causes common, hard-to-debug failures. Trigger whenever the user wants to perform a write action or a unique read action that requires JavaScript execution in the Figma file context — e.g. create/edit/delete nodes, set up variables or tokens, build components and variants, modify auto-layout or fills, bind variables to properties, or inspect file structure programmatically.
