create_new_file — Create a New Figma File

MANDATORY: load this skill before every create_new_file tool call. It encodes the plan-resolution decision tree, the editor-type contract, and the post-creation handoff to use_figma.

Use the create_new_file MCP tool to create a new blank Figma file in the user's drafts folder. This is typically used before use_figma when you need a fresh file to work with.
