Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00158 | $0.01177 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00079 | $0.00589 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00032 | $0.00235 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00016 | $0.00118 |
Grade A, and why
figma-deep-component 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 — 59 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
figma-deep-component — unlimited-depth tree with resolved tokens
Walk one node (usually a COMPONENT / COMPONENT_SET / INSTANCE, but any node works) recursively
to a depth you choose, capturing at every level: layout (auto-layout, padding, spacing, sizing),
visual properties (fills, strokes, stroke weight, corner radius, effects, opacity), typography for
text nodes, boundVariables resolved to token names + code syntax, INSTANCE main-component
references (including whether the main is a variant and its set), prototype reactions, and dev-mode
annotations. This is the richest single-component read for high-fidelity code generation.
Skill boundaries
use_figmarules — load the officialfigma-useskill first; it is the full Figma Plugin API reference. Essentials these scripts rely on: plain JS with top-levelawait+return(no IIFE, nofigma.closePlugin();console.logis not returned), inputs inlined asconstat the top of each script, colors in 0–1 range, load fonts before any text op,await figma.getNodeByIdAsync(...), and atomic errors (a failed script applies nothing — read the error, fix, retry).- Whole-file inventory (all tokens/components/styles at once) → use
figma-design-system-inventory. - Variant set as a CSS state machine (per-state diffs, pseudo-class mapping) →
use
figma-analyze-component-set. - This depth of tree + resolved tokens + reactions is not what the native MCP's
get_design_context(rendered single-selection summary) orget_metadata(flat structure) return — it is a design-system code-gen capability layered on top.
Workflow
- Get the node id. From selection (
figma_get_selection), search, or a pasted id. - Choose a depth. Set
const DEPTH(default 10). Deep design components rarely exceed ~6 levels; use a smaller number first to keep the payload manageable, then go deeper if needed. - Run
scripts/deep-component.jsviause_figma(skillNames: "figma-deep-component"). Setconst NODE_IDandconst DEPTHat the top. - Generate code. The returned tree mirrors the DOM you should build. Prefer
boundVariablestoken names (and theircodeSyntax) over raw hex; usemainComponentrefs to reuse imported components; usereactionsto wire up interaction/navigation. - If the payload is too big, lower
DEPTH(nodes past the limit are summarized with achildCount+_depthLimitReachedmarker) or target a smaller sub-node id.
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.
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.

figma-deep-component is a skill published in the GitHub repository southleft/figma-console-mcp-skills (80 stars, last pushed 25d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 158 tokens to every session and 1,177 once invoked, about $0.0008 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
