Build / Update Screens from Design System

Use this skill to create or update full-page screens in Figma by reusing the published design system — components, variables, and styles — rather than drawing primitives with hardcoded values. The key insight: the Figma file likely has a published design system with components, color/spacing variables, and text/effect styles that correspond to the codebase's UI components and tokens. Find and use those instead of drawing boxes with hex colors.

MANDATORY: You MUST also load figma-use before any use_figma call. That skill contains critical rules (color ranges, font loading, etc.) that apply to every script you write.

Always pass skillNames: "figma-generate-design" when calling use_figma as part of this skill. This is a logging parameter — it does not affect execution.

Skill Boundaries

  • Use this skill when the deliverable is a Figma screen (new or updated) composed of design system component instances.
  • If the user wants to generate code from a Figma design, switch to figma-implement-design.
  • If the user wants to create new reusable components or variants, use figma-use directly.
  • If the user wants to write Code Connect mappings, switch to figma-code-connect-components.

Prerequisites

  • Figma MCP server must be connected
  • The target Figma file must have a published design system with components (or access to a team library)
