FAQPage Schema
Why does running use_figma fail when I try to execute JavaScript in a Figma file?▼

Invoking use_figma fails because the figma-use skill must be loaded first to prevent hard-to-debug failures. This prerequisite ensures the required environment is initialized for executing JavaScript actions like creating or inspecting nodes.

How do I properly initialize use_figma workflows for editing Figma components?▼

To initialize use_figma workflows, load the figma-use skill before invoking the command, and pass the required skillNames parameter set to "figma-use". This safely prepares the environment for editing components.

Do I need to pass specific parameters when calling use_figma to inspect nodes?▼

Yes, you must pass the skillNames parameter with the value "figma-use" when calling use_figma. This enforces the mandatory prerequisite loading required to safely inspect file structures and nodes.

What Figma actions require loading the figma-use skill beforehand?▼

Actions requiring JavaScript in a Figma file, such as creating, editing, or inspecting nodes and components, require loading the figma-use skill beforehand. This coordination prevents debugging failures.

Can I configure design systems in Figma without initializing the figma-use skill?▼

No, configuring design systems requires JavaScript actions that depend on the figma-use skill. Loading it first provides contextual guidance and enforces the required skillNames parameter for complex workflows.
