figma
This Claude Code skill enables interaction with the Figma MCP server to retrieve design context, screenshots, variables, and assets from Figma files, and to convert Figma nodes into production-ready code. Use it when tasks involve Figma URLs, specific node IDs, design-to-code translation, or troubleshooting Figma MCP configuration, but not when the objective is pixel-perfect implementation from a design file.

# 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) 1. Run get_design_context first to fetch the structured representation for the exact node(s). 2. 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. 3. Run get_screenshot for a visual reference of the node variant being implemented. 4. Only after you have both get_design_context and get_screenshot, download any assets needed and start implementation. 5. 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. 6. 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. ## References - `references/figma-mcp-config.md` — setup, verification, troubleshooting, and link-based usage reminders. - `references/figma-tools-and-prompts.md` — tool catalog and prompt patterns for selecting frameworks/components and fetching metadata.
Finds duplicate business logic spread across multiple components and suggests consolidation. Use when asking "where is this logic duplicated?", "find common code between services", "what can be consolidated?", "detect shared domain logic", or analyzing component overlap before refactoring. Do NOT use for code-level duplication detection (use linters) or dependency analysis (use coupling-analysis).
Detects misplaced classes and fixes component hierarchy problems — finds code that should belong inside a component but sits at the root level. Use when asking "clean up component structure", "find orphaned classes", "fix module hierarchy", "flatten nested components", or analyzing why namespaces have misplaced code. Do NOT use for dependency analysis (use coupling-analysis) or domain grouping (use domain-identification-grouping).
Maps architectural components in a codebase and measures their size to identify what should be extracted first. Use when asking "how big is each module?", "what components do I have?", "which service is too large?", "analyze codebase structure", "size my monolith", or planning where to start decomposing. Do NOT use for runtime performance sizing or infrastructure capacity planning.
Analyzes coupling between modules using the three-dimensional model (strength, distance, volatility) from "Balancing Coupling in Software Design". Use when asking "are these modules too coupled?", "show me dependencies", "analyze integration quality", "which modules should I decouple?", "coupling report", or evaluating architectural health. Do NOT use for domain boundary analysis (use domain-analysis) or component sizing (use component-identification-sizing).
Creates step-by-step decomposition plans and migration roadmaps for breaking apart monolithic applications. Use when asking "what order should I extract services?", "plan my migration", "create a decomposition roadmap", "prioritize what to split", "monolith to microservices strategy", or tracking decomposition progress. Do NOT use for domain analysis (use domain-analysis) or component sizing (use component-identification-sizing).
Maps business domains and suggests service boundaries in any codebase using DDD Strategic Design. Use when asking "what are the domains in this codebase?", "where should I draw service boundaries?", "identify bounded contexts", "classify subdomains", "DDD analysis", or analyzing domain cohesion. Do NOT use for grouping existing components into domains (use domain-identification-grouping) or dependency analysis (use coupling-analysis).
Groups existing components into logical business domains to plan service-based architecture. Use when asking "which components belong together?", "group these into services", "organize by domain", "component-to-domain mapping", or planning service extraction from an existing codebase. Do NOT use for identifying new domains from scratch (use domain-analysis) or analyzing coupling (use coupling-analysis).
AI frontend specialist and design consultant that guides users through a structured discovery process before generating any code. Collects visual references, design tokens, typography, icons, layout preferences, and brand guidelines to ensure the final output matches the user's vision with high fidelity. Use when the user asks to build, design, create, or improve any frontend interface — websites, landing pages, dashboards, components, apps, emails, forms, modals, or any UI element. Also triggers on "build me a UI", "design a page", "create a component", "improve this layout", "make this look better", "frontend", "interface", "redesign", or when the user provides mockups, screenshots, or design references. Do NOT use for backend logic, API design, database schemas, or non-visual code tasks.
