talk-to-figma-design

talk-to-figma-design is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from richardplg2/figma-annotations. It costs 28 tokens per session (1,586 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A design-planning helper for Figma, a collaborative interface-design tool. It reads an exported Figma design prompt, combines it with information from Figma and the codebase, and produces a design specification for brainstorming.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to gather requirements from Figma, inspect related code, and prepare a design specification; it does not implement the code.
Why use it?
It turns design notes and existing project context into a clearer plan before implementation begins.

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

talk-to-figma-design 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 — 164 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

talk-to-figma-design

Collect Figma design requirements, enrich them with live Figma data and codebase analysis, then hand off to the brainstorming pipeline for implementation planning.

Trigger

User invokes /talk-to-figma-design after pasting a markdown prompt exported from the figma-annotations VS Code extension.

Arguments (all optional):

  • --channel <id> — override channel ID from prompt
  • --collection "<name>" — process only the named collection's items
  • <topic> — free text topic name for the spec file (default: derived from first frame name)

Prerequisites

  • cursor-talk-to-figma MCP server running (bun socket on port 3055)
  • Figma plugin active in the Figma file
  • GitNexus index available in the current project (optional — skipped gracefully if missing)

Workflow

Follow these steps in order. Do NOT skip steps. Do NOT implement any code — this skill only collects, enriches, and generates a spec.

Step 1: Parse Prompt

  1. Scan the conversation for the <!-- talk-to-figma-design --> marker
  2. If no marker found, tell the user: "No Figma design prompt found. Export collections from the figma-annotations VS Code extension first using 'Export Collections as Prompt'."
  3. Extract from the prompt:
    • Channel ID from the ## Connection section
    • Design frames with their nodeIds, names, types, dimensions, notes, and collection names
    • Code references with file paths, line ranges, language, code, notes, and collection names
  4. If --channel argument provided, use it instead of the prompt's channel ID
  5. If --collection argument provided, filter to only items from that collection

Step 2: Enrich from Figma MCP

Use the cursor-talk-to-figma MCP tools to gather detailed design data.

  1. Connect: Call join_channel with the resolved channel ID
  2. For each design frame nodeId:
    • Call get_node_info(nodeId) — capture children hierarchy, layout properties, auto-layout settings
    • Call scan_text_nodes(nodeId) — capture all text content within the frame
  3. Global design data:
    • Call get_styles() — capture color tokens, typography, effects
    • Call get_local_components() — capture available component library
