What it does

Translate Figma nodes into production-ready code with 1:1 visual fidelity using the Figma MCP workflow (design context, screenshots, assets, and project-convention translation). Use when the user provides Figma URLs or node IDs and asks to implement designs or components that must match Figma specs. Requires a working Figma MCP server connection. Do NOT use for general Figma data fetching, variable exploration, or MCP troubleshooting (use figma instead).

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.

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 0: Set up Figma MCP (if not already configured)

If any MCP call fails because Figma MCP is not connected, pause and set it up:

  1. Add the Figma MCP server to your agent's MCP configuration:
    • URL: https://mcp.figma.com/mcp
  2. Enable remote MCP client if required by your agent.
  3. Log in with OAuth following your agent's authentication flow.

After successful login, the user will have to restart their agent. You should finish your answer and tell them so when they try again they can continue with Step 1.

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)

Note: When using the local desktop MCP (figma-desktop), fileKey is not passed as a parameter to tool calls. The server automatically uses the currently open file, so only nodeId is needed.
