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-use-design-system 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 12d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 481 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

use_figma — Design System Skill

Context for using the use_figma MCP tool with 's design system. The figma-use skill provides the foundational Plugin API rules (return-as-output, 0–1 colors, font loading, page switching, incremental workflow, atomic errors). Load both together — this skill is the what ( libraries, tokens, components, conventions); figma-use is the how (the API surface).

MANDATORY: load figma-use before any use_figma call. If the task is a full screen/view, also load figma-generate-design; if it is new components or a design-system build, also load figma-generate-library. Those workflow skills tell you how to assemble screens / components; this skill tells you which assets to assemble them from.

Always include figma-use-design-system in the comma-separated skillNames parameter when calling use_figma as part of this skill. If this skill was loaded via an MCP resource, you MUST prefix the name with resource: (e.g. resource:figma-use-design-system). This is a logging parameter — it does not affect execution.

1. The Three Libraries

ships as three published Figma libraries. These are the authoritative source of truth — never recreate their tokens, styles, or components by hand.

Library What it provides File key
Variables Design tokens, primitives, semantic variables, theming (collections + modes) <variables-file-key>
UI Kit Foundations, components, patterns, text styles, effect/elevation styles, layout guides <ui-kit-file-key>
Icons Icon set + symbols (stroke default; fill only for critical/warning/success) <icons-file-key>

These are file keys, not per-asset publish keys. The keys you pass to importComponentSetByKeyAsync / importVariableByKeyAsync / importStyleByKeyAsync are resolved at runtime from these files — see Appendix A — Libraries & Discovery for the resolution recipe.

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.
