Getting it into your agent
It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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 | $0.00114 | $0.08303 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00057 | $0.04151 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00023 | $0.01661 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00011 | $0.00830 |
Grade A, and why
figma-use 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 2d 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.
This is a copy
92% identical to figma-use — 31 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 431 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
use_figma — Figma Plugin API Skill
Use the use_figma tool to execute JavaScript in Figma files via the Plugin API. All detailed reference docs live in references/.
Always include figma-use in the comma-separated skillNames parameter when calling use_figma. If this skill was loaded via an MCP resource, you MUST prefix the name with resource: (e.g. resource:figma-use). This is a logging parameter used to track skill usage — it does not affect execution.
If Figma MCP tools appear as deferred tools, batch-load all their schemas in a single ToolSearch call using the select: syntax — e.g. ToolSearch query="select:use_figma,get_screenshot,get_metadata,create_new_file". One round trip beats six.
If the task involves building or updating a full page, screen, or multi-section layout in Figma from code, also load figma-generate-design. It provides the workflow for discovering design system components via search_design_system, importing them, and assembling screens incrementally. Both skills work together: this one for the API rules, that one for the screen-building workflow.
If the task involves creating or building a component in Figma (even a single component), also load figma-generate-library. It provides the component creation workflow — variable foundations, variant sets, design token bindings — that figma-use alone doesn't cover.
Before anything, load plugin-api-standalone.index.md to understand what is possible. When you are asked to write plugin API code, use this context to grep plugin-api-standalone.d.ts for relevant types, methods, and properties. This is the definitive source of truth for the API surface. It is a large typings file, so do not load it all at once, grep for relevant sections as needed.
IMPORTANT: Whenever you work with design systems, start with working-with-design-systems/wwds.md to understand the key concepts, processes, and guidelines for working with design systems in Figma. Then load the more specific references for components, variables, text styles, and effect styles as needed.

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-use is a skill published in the GitHub repository sutchan/Agent-Skills-Hub (2 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 114 tokens to every session and 8,303 once invoked, about $0.0006 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 92% identical to figma-use, differing in 31 lines, and is treated as a copy.
