figma-variables-generator

figma-variables-generator is a skill for Claude Code from bacchus-labs/wrangler. It costs 97 tokens per session (4,866 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A generator that creates JSON files describing Figma variables. Figma variables are reusable values for things such as colors, spacing, font settings, and light or dark themes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to prepare color, number, text, and true-or-false variables, including multiple modes and references between variables.
Why use it?
It removes the manual work of converting design-token data or written descriptions into the format that Figma import plugins expect.

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-variables-generator 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 9d 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 Variables Generator

Generate properly formatted JSON files for creating Figma variable collections from text descriptions, existing design token data, or images showing design systems.

Core Capabilities

This skill helps designers create Figma variable collections by generating the JSON format required by Figma variable import/export plugins. The output can be directly imported into Figma using plugins like "Variables Import Export" or similar tools.

Supported Variable Types

Figma supports only 4 core variable types:

  • Color ($type: "color") - RGB hex values, rgba, or variable references
  • Number ($type: "number") - Numeric values (spacing, sizes, radius, weights, etc.)
  • String ($type: "string") - Text values (font families, names, etc.)
  • Boolean ($type: "boolean") - True/false values

Important: Types like spacing, borderRadius, fontSize, fontWeight should use number type. Use semantic naming in your variable paths to indicate their purpose (e.g., spacing.xs, radius.md, fontSize.body)

Key Features

  1. Multiple Modes: Support for different modes (e.g., Light/Dark themes)
  2. Variable References: Use {collection.subcategory.variableName} syntax to reference other variables
  3. Code Syntax: Optional platform-specific naming conventions (WEB, iOS, ANDROID)
  4. Hierarchical Organization: Group variables into collections, categories, and subcategories
  5. Flexible Input: Accept design tokens from text, structured data, or images

Workflow

Step 0: Check for Existing JSON (For Updates or Reformatting)

CRITICAL: When the user asks to update, add to, or reformat an existing JSON file, you MUST:

  1. Read the existing file first - Use the Read tool to load the current JSON
  2. Preserve all naming exactly - Collection names, category names, subcategory names, and variable names must match EXACTLY
  3. Understand Figma's behavior: Figma uses names as unique identifiers:
    • Same name = overwrites/updates the variable
    • Different name = creates a new variable/collection/category
  4. Maintain hierarchy - Keep the exact same nesting structure
  5. Reorder for readability - If JSON is messy or poorly organized, reorder it following the guidelines in Step 2.5

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.
