SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill enables teams to create a live link between Figma design components and their code implementations using Code Connect, simplifying the process of mapping designs to code in a scalable way.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Establish mappings between Figma symbols and code components using add_code_connect_map.
  • Support both URL-based MCP flows and figma-desktop MCP workflows.
  • Guide through identifying components, verifying mappings, extracting design context, and locating best-matching code components to connect.

Quick Start

Say: "Connect this Figma component to code: https://figma.com/design/:fileKey/:fileName?node-id=1-2".

FAQPage Schema
How do I link Figma components to code implementations?

To map Figma symbols to code, you identify the component, verify existing mappings, extract design context, locate the matching code component, and generate an add_code_connect_map with nodeId, source file, componentName, languages, and frameworks.

What is Code Connect used for in design-to-code workflows?

Code Connect creates a live link between Figma design components and code implementations, allowing teams to scale design-to-code mapping by connecting unconnected Figma symbols directly to existing React/TS or other framework components.

Do I need an MCP server to connect Figma designs to my codebase?

Yes, using Code Connect to map Figma components to your codebase requires a connected MCP server. You can execute this via URL-based MCP flows or through the figma-desktop MCP workflow.

Can I map Figma components to React and TypeScript code?

Yes, you can map unconnected Figma symbols to existing React/TS components. The skill creates mappings across React/TS or other frameworks by specifying the target languages and source file.

How do I start connecting a Figma component using a URL?

To start connecting a Figma component via URL, provide a link like https://figma.com/design/:fileKey/:fileName?node-id=1-2. The skill extracts the nodeId and file context to locate the matching code component.
