figma-annotations: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

figma-annotations CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from richardplg2/figma-annotations. It costs 551 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Repository guidance for a VS Code extension that connects Figma design frames with code annotations and formats them into prompts for AI agents.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when developing annotation storage, Figma viewing or relay features, code-range tracking, or prompt export.
Why use it?
It explains the extension's architecture and shared concepts so design notes, code ranges, stored data, and Figma connections remain consistent.

Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions Claude Code.

This is richardplg2/figma-annotations's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on figma-annotations itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything figma-annotations configures →

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

figma-annotations CLAUDE.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Figma Annotations — VS Code Extension

A VS Code extension that connects to Figma via WebSocket relay, lets you annotate design frames alongside code, and exports structured prompts for AI-assisted implementation.

Architecture

src/
  extension.ts          — Entry point, command registrations
  types.ts              — Data models (Collection, DesignFrame, CodeAnnotation)
  storageService.ts     — Read/write .annotations.json at workspace root
  collectionProvider.ts — TreeView provider (Collections -> Frames/Code -> Notes)
  figmaService.ts       — WebSocket client for Figma relay (port 3055)
  figmaViewerPanel.ts   — Webview panel for design frame viewer
  rangeResolver.ts      — Relocates code ranges when source files change
  xmlFormatter.ts       — Format collections as XML
  markdownFormatter.ts  — Format collections as markdown prompt for AI agents
  webview/viewer.html   — Figma viewer webview HTML

Key Concepts

  • Collection: A named group of AnnotationItems (CodeAnnotation | DesignFrame)
  • DesignFrame: A Figma frame with nodeId, cached image, node tree, and notes
  • CodeAnnotation: A code selection with file path, range, and optional note
  • DesignNote: A note attached to a specific node within a DesignFrame

Commands

Command Description
createCollection Create a new named collection
connectFigma Connect to Figma relay via channel ID
loadSelection Import selected Figma frames into a collection
addCodeToCollection Add editor selection as code annotation
copyCollectionAsXml Copy collection as XML to clipboard
insertCollectionToTerminal Insert XML into active terminal
exportCollectionsAsPrompt Multi-select export as markdown prompt with MCP tools reference
openFigmaViewer Open design frame in webview panel

WebSocket Relay

The extension communicates with Figma through a WebSocket relay at ws://localhost:3055. This is the same relay used by cursor-talk-to-figma-mcp.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
