figma-plugin-api

figma-plugin-api is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from memi-design/design-skills. It costs 46 tokens per session (255 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A reference workflow for checking the current Figma Plugin API, the programming interface used to inspect or change Figma files. It covers the exact objects, operations, permissions, and limits involved.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to verify how to work with Figma nodes, variables, components, styles, and editor operations before implementing or testing a change.
Why use it?
It reduces errors caused by relying on memory about an API that can change or behave differently across editors and object types.

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-plugin-api 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 8d 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.

What it actually says

Figma Plugin API Reference Router

Do not answer exact API questions from memory when current official reference material is available.

Procedure

  1. Identify the exact API concept, editor type, node type, and operation involved.
  2. Search the current official Figma Plugin API documentation and typings for the relevant symbol.
  3. Verify method availability, asynchronous behavior, permissions, supported editors, and documented limitations.
  4. Build the smallest test or read-only inspection needed before attempting a write.
  5. Keep writes incremental and validate the resulting file state.
  6. Cite the official symbol or page and access date.
  7. If the official reference is unavailable or ambiguous, stop before destructive writes and report the unresolved contract.

Official sources:

Return the verified API contract, minimal implementation approach, validation, and any version-sensitive uncertainty.

Files

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
