What it does
Figma Variant Matrix is an agent skill from mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills. Define component variants and states systematically for Figma. Use when asked to plan component variants, define states for a component, set up a Figma variant matrix, or work out what properties a component needs before building it. Produces a complete variant matrix with all properties, values, and combinations needed.
Its SKILL.md is about 870 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. 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 plan component variants
- Define states for a component
- Set up a Figma variant matrix
- Work out what properties a component needs before building it
Example prompts
- “/figma-variant-matrix”
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 Variant Matrix loads about 870 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 86 tokens; SKILL.md has 384 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-variant-matrix
- description
- Define component variants and states systematically for Figma. Use when asked to plan component variants, define states for a component, set up a Figma variant matrix, or work out what properties a component needs before building it. Produces a complete variant matrix with all properties, values, and combinations needed.
Figma Variant Matrix Skill
Defines all variants, properties, and states a component needs before building it in Figma — preventing missing variants discovered after the component is already used across 40 screens.
Required Inputs
- Component name (Button, Card, Input, Badge, Navigation item, etc.)
- Component purpose (what does it do, where is it used?)
- Platform (iOS / Android / Web / Multi-platform)
- Design system context (standalone / part of existing system)
Output Structure
1. Component Overview
Name, category (Interactive/Display/Layout/Form/Navigation/Feedback), used in contexts.
2. Variant Properties
| Property | Values | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Type | Primary, Secondary, Tertiary, Destructive | |
| Size | Large, Medium, Small | |
| State | Default, Hover, Active, Disabled, Loading | |
| Icon | None, Leading, Trailing, Only |
Total combinations: [N]. Flag if over 50 — consider splitting into multiple components.
3. State Definitions
For each state, list only what changes from Default:
- Default: [Full visual spec]
- Hover (web): [Delta from default]
- Active/Pressed: [Delta]
- Disabled: [Delta — use layer-level properties, not opacity on whole component]
- Loading: [What replaces label, interactive during loading?]
- Error (forms): [Border colour, helper text, icon changes]
4. Anatomy Breakdown
| Layer name | Purpose | Required? | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| container | Background and bounds | Yes | |
| label | Text | Conditional | Hide when icon-only |
| icon-leading | Leading icon slot | No |
5. Token Mapping
| Property | Token | Fallback |
|---|---|---|
| Background default | color.brand.primary | #hex |
| Border radius | radius.medium | 8px |
6. Build Order
- Default state, most common variant
- Convert to component, add properties
- Size variants
- State variants
- Type variants
- Icon slot variants last
Show full SKILL.md (155 more words)Show less
Quality Checks
- All interactive states defined
- Total variant count calculated, flagged if over 50
- Every layer named semantically
- Token mapping covers all visual properties
- Disabled state uses layer-level properties not opacity
Anti-Patterns
- Do not create a variant matrix with properties that overlap or conflict — each property must be independently variable
- Do not use opacity for disabled states — disabled states must use layer-level properties, not opacity
- Do not enumerate every mathematical combination if many are invalid — document only valid, buildable combinations
- Do not define variants without considering responsive behaviour — specify which properties change across screen sizes
- Do not produce a matrix without Figma implementation guidance — variant naming conventions must follow Figma's property system
Example Trigger Phrases
- "Define the variants for a [component] in Figma"
- "What states does my [component] need?"
- "Help me plan the variant matrix for [component]"
- "Set up the Figma properties for a [button/card/input]"
- "What are all the combinations I need for my [component]?"
