Figma
A Cowork plugin that helps **product designers and engineers ship design-to-production React apps** — translating Figma mockups into accessible, production-ready components with best-practice enforcement for React 19, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS v4, and shadcn/ui.

What its author says it does
Copied from the file, not written here
This skill should be used when the user provides Figma URLs or node IDs, asks about design-to-code implementation, or needs to set up or troubleshoot the Figma MCP server. It uses the Figma MCP server to fetch design context, screenshots, variables, and assets from Figma and translate Figma nodes into production code.

Figma MCP
Use the Figma MCP server for Figma-driven implementation. For setup and debugging details (env vars, config, verification), see references/figma-mcp-config.md.
Figma MCP Integration Rules
These rules define how to translate Figma inputs into code for this project and must be followed for every Figma-driven change.
Required flow (do not skip)
- Run get_design_context first to fetch the structured representation for the exact node(s).
- If the response is too large or truncated, run get_metadata to get the high-level node map and then re-fetch only the required node(s) with get_design_context.
- Run get_screenshot for a visual reference of the node variant being implemented.
- Only after you have both get_design_context and get_screenshot, download any assets needed and start implementation.
- Translate the output (usually React + Tailwind) into this project's conventions, styles and framework. Reuse the project's color tokens, components, and typography wherever possible.
- Validate against Figma for 1:1 look and behavior before marking complete.
Implementation rules
- Treat the Figma MCP output (React + Tailwind) as a representation of design and behavior, not as final code style.
- Replace Tailwind utility classes with the project's preferred utilities/design-system tokens when applicable.
- Reuse existing components (e.g., buttons, inputs, typography, icon wrappers) instead of duplicating functionality.
- Use the project's color system, typography scale, and spacing tokens consistently.
- Respect existing routing, state management, and data-fetch patterns already adopted in the repo.
- Strive for 1:1 visual parity with the Figma design. When conflicts arise, prefer design-system tokens and adjust spacing or sizes minimally to match visuals.
- Validate the final UI against the Figma screenshot for both look and behavior.
Asset handling
- The Figma MCP Server provides an assets endpoint which can serve image and SVG assets.
- IMPORTANT: If the Figma MCP Server returns a localhost source for an image or an SVG, use that image or SVG source directly.
- IMPORTANT: DO NOT import/add new icon packages, all the assets should be in the Figma payload.
- IMPORTANT: do NOT use or create placeholders if a localhost source is provided.
Link-based prompting
- The server is link-based: copy the Figma frame/layer link and give that URL to the MCP client when asking for implementation help.
- The client cannot browse the URL but extracts the node ID from the link; always ensure the link points to the exact node/variant you want.
Arguments
When invoking this skill with arguments:
$ARGUMENTS- Flexible handling of Figma URLs or node IDs- Full URL:
https://figma.com/design/:fileKey/:fileName?node-id=1-2 - File key only:
abc123(skill will extract design context for entire file) - Node ID:
10-25(when file context is already established) - Example:
/figma https://figma.com/design/abc123/MyDesign?node-id=10-25 - Example:
/figma abc123
- Full URL:
The skill parses $ARGUMENTS to determine what Figma data to fetch (design context, screenshot, assets, or variables) based on the user's intent and the format provided.
