What it does

Translates Figma designs into production-ready application code with 1:1 visual fidelity. Use when implementing UI code from Figma files, when user mentions "implement design", "generate code", "implement component", provides Figma URLs, or asks to build components matching Figma specs. For Figma canvas writes via `use_figma`, use `figma-use`.

Implement Design

Overview

This skill provides a structured workflow for translating Figma designs into production-ready code with pixel-perfect accuracy. It ensures consistent integration with the Figma MCP server, proper use of design tokens, and 1:1 visual parity with designs.

Skill Boundaries

  • Use this skill when the deliverable is code in the user's repository.
  • If the user asks to create/edit/delete nodes inside Figma itself, switch to figma-use.
  • If the user asks to build or update a full-page screen in Figma from code or a description, switch to figma-generate-design.
  • If the user asks only for Code Connect mappings, switch to figma-code-connect-components.
  • If the user asks to author reusable agent rules (CLAUDE.md/AGENTS.md), switch to figma-create-design-system-rules.

Prerequisites

  • Figma MCP server must be connected and accessible
  • User must provide a Figma URL in the format: https://figma.com/design/:fileKey/:fileName?node-id=1-2
    • :fileKey is the file key
    • 1-2 is the node ID (the specific component or frame to implement)
  • OR when using figma-desktop MCP: User can select a node directly in the Figma desktop app (no URL required)
  • Project should have an established design system or component library (preferred)

Required Workflow

Follow these steps in order. Do not skip steps.

Step 1: Get Node ID

Option A: Parse from Figma URL

When the user provides a Figma URL, extract the file key and node ID to pass as arguments to MCP tools.

URL format: https://figma.com/design/:fileKey/:fileName?node-id=1-2

Extract:

  • File key: :fileKey (the segment after /design/)
  • Node ID: 1-2 (the value of the node-id query parameter)
