Implement a Figma Design as Code (Design → Code)

Use this skill to turn a Figma design into code in a target codebase. This is the read-FROM-Figma direction: pull design context out of Figma with get_design_context, then adapt it into the project's real stack. For the reverse direction — building or updating a design in Figma from code — use figma-generate-design instead.

This skill owns the workflow for design-to-code. Parameter mechanics (nodeId / fileKey / branchKey extraction, URL parsing, format/query options, response shape) live on the get_design_context tool description itself — follow them there.

Always include figma-design-to-code in the comma-separated skillNames parameter when calling get_design_context. If this skill was loaded via an MCP resource, you MUST prefix the name with resource: (e.g. resource:figma-design-to-code). This is a logging parameter used to track skill usage — it does not affect execution.

Direction and Scope

• You MUST use this skill for design → code: implementing, translating, or porting a Figma node into code.
• You MUST NOT use this skill to write to Figma.

Workflow

1. Call get_design_context first

• You MUST call get_design_context on the target node before writing any code. It is your primary tool — a single call returns reference code, a screenshot, and contextual hints.
• You MUST NOT reach for get_metadata or get_screenshot as a substitute. Use them only to orient (e.g. picking a node) or to validate, not in place of get_design_context.
