What it does
Figma Spacing System is an agent skill from mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills. Design a spacing and layout token system for a Figma design system. Use when asked to create a spacing system, define layout tokens, set up a grid system, build a spacing scale, or establish layout foundations for a Figma file. Produces a complete spacing scale, grid definition, component spacing conventions, and Figma implementation guide.
Its SKILL.md is about 940 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Frontend & Design, covering Design systems. It works with Figma. The repository describes itself as: 1255 professional Agent Skills for Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor & Codex — PRDs, postmortems, leases, medical bills, layoffs, go-bags, new countries. Plain markdown, MIT, in… The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Asked to create a spacing system
- Define layout tokens
- Set up a grid system
- Build a spacing scale
Example prompts
- “/figma-spacing-system”
Workflow steps
6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1cbf1f0. 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
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
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 Spacing System loads about 942 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 91 tokens; SKILL.md has 431 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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-spacing-system
- description
- Design a spacing and layout token system for a Figma design system. Use when asked to create a spacing system, define layout tokens, set up a grid system, build a spacing scale, or establish layout foundations for a Figma file. Produces a complete spacing scale, grid definition, component spacing conventions, and Figma implementation guide.
Figma Spacing System Skill
Produces a complete spacing and layout token system — the foundation that makes a design system consistent and developer handoff unambiguous.
Required Inputs
- Platform (iOS / Android / Web / Multi-platform)
- Base unit (4px / 8px — default to 8px)
- Design system name (for token naming)
- Component density (compact / standard / comfortable)
- Grid requirements (or "derive from platform standard")
Output Structure
1. Base Unit
[4px or 8px] with rationale. All values must be multiples.
2. Spacing Scale
| Token | Value | Use case |
|---|---|---|
| spacing.none | 0px | Removing space intentionally |
| spacing.xs | 4/8px | Icon padding, tight labels |
| spacing.sm | 8/12px | Internal component padding compact |
| spacing.md | 12/16px | Internal component padding standard |
| spacing.lg | 16/24px | Section padding, card internal |
| spacing.xl | 24/32px | Between components |
| spacing.2xl | 32/48px | Section separation |
| spacing.3xl | 48/64px | Page-level breaks |
| spacing.4xl | 64/96px | Hero sections |
3. Layout Grid
Mobile (375px): 4 columns, margin [value], gutter [value] Tablet (768px): 8 columns, margin [value], gutter [value] Desktop (1440px): 12 columns, margin [value], gutter [value], max content width [value]
4. Component Spacing Conventions
| Context | Token | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Button horizontal padding | spacing.md | Left/right |
| Button vertical padding | spacing.sm | Top/bottom |
| Card internal padding | spacing.lg | All sides |
| Input padding | spacing.sm vertical, spacing.md horizontal | |
| Icon gap from label | spacing.xs | |
| Section gap | spacing.xl |
5. Figma Implementation
- Create SPACING page documenting each token visually
- Resources > Variables > create Number collection named Spacing
- Apply variables to Auto Layout padding/gap values
- Share token names with engineers as-is or via Tokens Studio
6. Anti-Patterns to Avoid
- Values not on the scale (13px, 22px) — round to nearest token
- Absolute pixel values in components instead of tokens
- Mixing 4px and 8px base units in the same product
Show full SKILL.md (169 more words)Show less
Quality Checks
- All token values are multiples of the base unit
- Scale covers xs through 4xl
- Grid defined for all relevant breakpoints
- Component conventions cover common decisions
- Figma implementation steps included
Anti-Patterns
- Do not create a spacing scale with arbitrary values — the scale must follow a consistent mathematical ratio (e.g. 4px base, 8-4-2 system)
- Do not define spacing tokens without Figma implementation instructions — token names alone are not actionable
- Do not create a spacing system that doesn't account for component-level spacing conventions — global tokens and component usage must both be documented
- Do not skip grid definitions — spacing without a grid system is incomplete layout foundation documentation
- Do not produce a spacing system that ignores responsive behaviour — define how spacing adapts across breakpoints
Example Trigger Phrases
- "Create a spacing system for our Figma design system"
- "Define our spacing tokens for Figma"
- "Set up a grid and spacing scale for [product]"
- "What spacing values should we use in our design system?"
- "Help me build the layout foundation for our Figma file"
