Skill: Figma Integration

SkillMedia

Keep Figma and code in sync — map the 3-tier DTCG tokens to Figma Variables (collections + modes), sync in either direction, use the Figma MCP when connected, and verify component parity (variants/states). Use when the user wants to push tokens/components to Figma, pull a design into code, set up token↔Variable sync, or check design-code drift.

Bridge design (Figma) and code (this repo) in both directions. The token JSON stays the source of truth; Figma Variables mirror it.

Steps

  1. Read workflows/figma-integration.md (token↔Variable mapping, sync directions, MCP usage, parity).
  2. Map the 3-tier hierarchy → three Figma collections (Primitives → Semantic → Component) with aliasing; dark/brand/density → Figma Modes (tokens/theming.json).
  3. Choose ONE authoritative sync direction (code→Figma publish, or Figma→code extract via Tokens Studio / Variables REST API). The other side is generated — never hand-edit both.
  4. If a Figma MCP server is connected: prefer its tools/skills (load its mandatory prerequisite skill first). Use it to read frames/variables/screenshots into code, build Variables/components from our tokens, or wire Code Connect to components/*.
  5. Check component parity: Figma variants/properties must cover our variants + sizes + the 8 states; flag gaps.

Verification (definition of done)

  • Every Figma Variable resolves to a token in tokens/*.json (no orphan hex in designs).
  • One authoritative direction; the generated side has zero hand edits.
  • Variant sets cover all 8 states; Code Connect points to the right components/* file.
  • After any token import: python3 scripts/validate_tokens.py passes.
