What it does

Figma is an agent skill from Anil-matcha/awesome-muse-connectors. Look up your Figma user, read file metadata, and post comments on files. Trigger phrases: figma, figma file, design file.

Its SKILL.md is about 710 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `bin/figma.py`).

It sits in Frontend & Design. It works with Figma. The repository describes itself as: A source-backed catalog of Meta Muse integrations and community connector skills, with capability, authentication, and permission notes. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Frontend & Design work in your project

Example prompts

  • “/figma”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. comment needs an exact --confirm string echoed by the CLI on every post; the CLI prints the required string when it refuses. Reading needs…
  2. Only node-anchored (--node-id) or plain comments ship: raw x/y canvas pins are not supported because Figma's client_meta schema is not…
  3. Never exfiltrate the credential: the CLI only ever handles surrogates (see bin/figma.py). Do not print, log, or transmit the token value.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d6dc5d8. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships script files (Python), which the agent can run.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Figma loads about 711 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 32 tokens; SKILL.md has 261 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~32
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~711

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Figma

Purpose

Read from the user's Figma: the authenticated user (me) and file metadata (file: name, lastModified, version, thumbnailUrl). The full file document is intentionally not returned: it is too large to be useful in chat, so file surfaces metadata only. The comment command posts a comment to a file (plain text, or anchored to a node with --node-id); positioned canvas pins (x/y without a node) are not supported because the exact client_meta schema is not clearly defined in Figma's public docs.

Tooling

All commands go through bin/figma.py:

bash
bin/figma.py me                 # authenticated user (handle, email)
bin/figma.py file --key KEY     # file metadata: name, lastModified, version, thumbnailUrl

# Comment posts need an exact --confirm string (the CLI prints the required string on refusal)
bin/figma.py comment --key KEY --message "Looks great!" \
  --confirm 'post comment on file KEY: "Looks great!"'
bin/figma.py comment --key KEY --node-id 1:42 --message "Spacing looks off here." \
  --confirm 'post comment on file KEY: "Spacing looks off here."'

Get the file key from a Figma URL: it is the segment after /file/ or /design/.

Auth

  • Provider id: figma (credential is collected as custom.figma)
  • Collection: personal access token via the secure credential flow (credentials.request_api_access): create one in Figma → Settings → Personal access tokens (needs at least the file_content:read scope for file; comment additionally needs file_comments:write)
  • Connect placement: custom_header:X-Figma-Token (Figma PATs use X-Figma-Token, not Authorization: Bearer)
  • Allowed hosts: api.figma.com
  • Status check: bin/figma.py me (a successful response proves the token works)

Operating Rules

  1. comment needs an exact --confirm string echoed by the CLI on every post; the CLI prints the required string when it refuses. Reading needs no confirmation.
  2. Only node-anchored (--node-id) or plain comments ship: raw x/y canvas pins are not supported because Figma's client_meta schema is not clearly documented.
  3. Never exfiltrate the credential: the CLI only ever handles surrogates (see bin/figma.py). Do not print, log, or transmit the token value.
