use_figma — Figma Plugin API Skill

Use the use_figma tool to execute JavaScript in Figma files via the Plugin API. All detailed reference docs live in references/.

Always include figma-use in the comma-separated skillNames parameter when calling use_figma. If this skill was loaded via an MCP resource, you MUST prefix the name with resource: (e.g. resource:figma-use). This is a logging parameter used to track skill usage — it does not affect execution.

If Figma MCP tools appear as deferred tools, batch-load all their schemas in a single ToolSearch call using the select: syntax — e.g. ToolSearch query="select:use_figma,get_screenshot,get_metadata,create_new_file". One round trip beats six.

If the task involves building or updating a full page, screen, or multi-section layout in Figma from code, also load figma-generate-design. It provides the workflow for discovering design system components via search_design_system, importing them, and assembling screens incrementally. Both skills work together: this one for the API rules, that one for the screen-building workflow.

If the task involves creating or building a component in Figma (even a single component), also load figma-generate-library. It provides the component creation workflow — variable foundations, variant sets, design token bindings — that figma-use alone doesn't cover.

Before anything, load plugin-api-standalone.index.md to understand what is possible. When you are asked to write plugin API code, use this context to grep plugin-api-standalone.d.ts for relevant types, methods, and properties. This is the definitive source of truth for the API surface. It is a large typings file, so do not load it all at once, grep for relevant sections as needed.

IMPORTANT: Whenever you work with design systems, start with working-with-design-systems/wwds.md to understand the key concepts, processes, and guidelines for working with design systems in Figma. Then load the more specific references for components, variables, text styles, and effect styles as needed.

1. Critical Rules

Use return to send data back. The return value is JSON-serialized automatically (objects, arrays, strings, numbers). Do NOT call figma.closePlugin() or wrap code in an async IIFE — this is handled for you.
Write plain JavaScript with top-level await and return. Code is automatically wrapped in an async context. Do NOT wrap in (async () => { ... })().
figma.notify() throws "not implemented" — never use it 3a. Return node IDs and keep workflow state outside the Figma file. Put human-readable component purpose and usage in the component's description.
console.log() is NOT returned — use return for output
Work incrementally in small steps. Break large operations into multiple use_figma calls. Validate after each step. This is the single most important practice for avoiding bugs.
Colors are 0–1 range (not 0–255): {r: 1, g: 0, b: 0} = red
Fills/strokes are read-only arrays — clone, modify, reassign
Every text edit follows the canonical recipe: load font → await → mutate → return affected node IDs. Skipping the load throws Cannot write to node with unloaded font "<family> <style>". The rule covers more than characters — it applies to any operation on nodes with unloaded fonts (appendChild, insertChild, setBoundVariable, setExplicitVariableModeForCollection, setValueForMode, findAll callbacks touching text). When mutating existing text, load the node's current fonts via getStyledTextSegments(['fontName']), not a hardcoded default. Inter is preloaded in most environments so other families surface this bug more often — the recipe is the same for every font. Use await figma.listAvailableFontsAsync() first if the style string is unverified. See Canonical text-edit recipe.
Pages load incrementally — use await figma.setCurrentPageAsync(page) to switch pages and load their content. The sync setter figma.currentPage = page does NOT work and will throw (see Page Rules below)
setBoundVariableForPaint returns a NEW paint — must capture and reassign
createVariable accepts collection object or ID string (object preferred)
layoutSizingHorizontal/Vertical is value-restricted by structural context — FIXED always works, HUG and FILL do not. 'HUG' is valid only on an auto-layout frame itself OR on a TEXT child of one. 'FILL' is valid only on a child of an auto-layout frame that is also not absolute-positioned, not inside an immutable frame, and not a canvas-grid child. Practical consequence: append to an auto-layout parent FIRST, then set HUG/FILL — a newly-created or unparented node can't satisfy the rule yet. The property itself exists on every SceneNode; the error is value-rejection, not "no such property". See Gotchas. 12a. Use auto-layout for containers that hold related children. When children have a structural relationship — stacked, side-by-side, aligned, gapped, hugged — wrap them in figma.createAutoLayout(), not figma.createFrame() with absolute x/y. Absolute coordinates govern where a container sits on the canvas; auto-layout governs how its children relate inside it. Skipping the container leaves no protection against text reflow, content changes, or overlap. 12b. layoutSizing* and *AxisSizingMode are different enums — don't cross them. layoutSizingHorizontal/layoutSizingVertical (set on a child) take 'FIXED'|'HUG'|'FILL'; primaryAxisSizingMode/counterAxisSizingMode (set on the frame itself) take 'FIXED'|'AUTO'. So layoutSizingVertical = 'AUTO' is invalid (use 'HUG'), and counterAxisSizingMode = 'FILL' throws Expected 'FIXED' | 'AUTO', received 'FILL' (use 'FIXED'/'AUTO'). Two more errors from the same setter — Error: in set_layoutSizingHorizontal: node must be an auto-layout frame or a child of an auto-layout frame and Error: in set_layoutSizingHorizontal: FILL can only be set on children of auto-layout frames — mean the node isn't in an auto-layout context yet; recommendation: make the parent auto-layout (figma.createAutoLayout()) and appendChild the node before setting (see Rule 12). See Gotchas.
Position new top-level nodes away from (0,0). Nodes appended directly to the page default to (0,0). Scan figma.currentPage.children to find a clear position (e.g., to the right of the rightmost node). This only applies to page-level nodes — nodes nested inside other frames or auto-layout containers are positioned by their parent. See Gotchas.
On use_figma error, STOP. Do NOT immediately retry. Failed scripts are atomic — if a script errors, it is not executed at all and no changes are made to the file. Read the error message carefully, fix the script, then retry. See Error Recovery.
MUST return ALL created/mutated node IDs. Whenever a script creates new nodes or mutates existing ones on the canvas, collect every affected node ID and return them in a structured object (e.g. return { createdNodeIds: [...], mutatedNodeIds: [...] }). This is essential for subsequent calls to reference, validate, or clean up those nodes.
Always set variable.scopes explicitly when creating variables. The default ALL_SCOPES pollutes every property picker — almost never what you want. Use specific scopes like ["FRAME_FILL", "SHAPE_FILL"] for backgrounds, ["TEXT_FILL"] for text colors, ["GAP"] for spacing, etc. See variable-patterns.md for the full list.
await every Promise. Never leave a Promise unawaited — unawaited async calls (e.g. figma.loadFontAsync(...) without await, or figma.setCurrentPageAsync(page) without await) will fire-and-forget, causing silent failures or race conditions. The script may return before the async operation completes, leading to missing data or half-applied changes.

For detailed WRONG/CORRECT examples of each rule, see Gotchas & Common Mistakes.

2. Page Rules (Critical)

Page context resets between use_figma calls — figma.currentPage starts on the first page each time.

Switching pages

Use await figma.setCurrentPageAsync(page) to switch pages and load their content. The sync setter figma.currentPage = page does NOT work — it throws "Setting figma.currentPage is not supported" in use_figma. Always use the async method.

// Switch to a specific page (loads its content)
const targetPage = figma.root.children.find((p) => p.name === "My Page");
await figma.setCurrentPageAsync(targetPage);
// targetPage.children is now populated

Call `setCurrentPageAsync` at most once per `use_figma` invocation — fan multi-page work out in parallel

One script must switch pages at most once. Never loop over figma.root.children and switch pages inside the loop.

If the work spans multiple pages, split it into N use_figma calls (one per target page) and emit them in parallel — a single assistant message containing N use_figma tool-use blocks. The harness runs them concurrently; each script sets currentPage exactly once.

Explicit instruction: when fanning out, you MUST issue the N tool calls in one message. Do not send them across multiple turns. Do not await one before issuing the next. Sequential per-page calls are slower than the in-loop pattern this rule replaces and waste the entire benefit of splitting.

// AVOID — switches pages N times in one script, reloads the file each time
for (const page of figma.root.children) {
  await figma.setCurrentPageAsync(page);
  // ... touch this page ...
}

// PREFER — read-only discovery call to get page IDs, then in the NEXT message
// emit N parallel use_figma tool calls (one per page), each setting currentPage once.

Default to parallel fan-out for any multi-page work — reads and writes alike. See gotchas.md → Set current page once per use_figma call for the full rationale.

Across script runs

figma.currentPage resets to the first page at the start of each use_figma call. If your workflow spans multiple calls and targets a non-default page, call await figma.setCurrentPageAsync(page) at the start of each invocation.

You can call use_figma multiple times to incrementally build on the file state, or to retrieve information before writing another script. For example, write a script to get metadata about existing nodes, return that data, then use it in a subsequent script to modify those nodes.

3. `return` Is Your Output Channel

The agent sees ONLY the value you return. Everything else is invisible.

Returning IDs (CRITICAL): Every script that creates or mutates canvas nodes MUST return all affected node IDs — e.g. return { createdNodeIds: [...], mutatedNodeIds: [...] }. This is a hard requirement, not optional.
Progress reporting: return { createdNodeIds: [...], count: 5, errors: [] }
Error info: Thrown errors are automatically captured and returned — just let them propagate or throw explicitly.
console.log() output is never returned to the agent
Always return actionable data (IDs, counts, status) so subsequent calls can reference created objects

4. Editor Mode

use_figma works in design mode (editorType "figma", the default). FigJam ("figjam") and Slides ("slides") have different sets of available node types — most design nodes are blocked in FigJam, and FigJam-only nodes are blocked in Slides.

Tell the editor from the URL: Design = figma.com/design/..., FigJam = figma.com/board/..., Slides = figma.com/slides/.... Confirm before assuming an API is available.

Available in design mode: Rectangle, Frame, Component, Text, Ellipse, Star, Line, Vector, Polygon, BooleanOperation, Slice, Page, Section, TextPath.

Blocked in design mode: Sticky, Connector, ShapeWithText, CodeBlock, Slide, SlideRow, SlideGrid, InteractiveSlideElement, Webpage.

Available in Slides mode: Rectangle, Frame, Component, Text, Ellipse, Star, Line, Vector, Polygon, BooleanOperation, Slice, Section, TextPath, Slide, SlideRow, SlideGrid, InteractiveSlideElement.

Blocked in Slides mode: Sticky, Connector, ShapeWithText, CodeBlock, Webpage, Page.

Design-only APIs (not just node types): figma.createPage() is available only in Design files (figma.com/design/...). In both FigJam (figma.com/board/...) and Slides (figma.com/slides/...) it throws TypeError: figma.createPage no such property 'createPage' on the figma global object. Do not emit figma.createPage() in FigJam or Slides workflows.

Slides note: There is no dedicated read tool for Slides files yet. Use use_figma with read-only scripts for inspection (see Section 6 "Inspect first" pattern), and get_screenshot / await node.screenshot() for visual context. For Slides-specific API guidance, load the figma-use-slides skill.

5. Efficient APIs — Prefer These Over Verbose Alternatives

These APIs reduce boilerplate, eliminate ordering errors, and compress token output. Always prefer them over the verbose alternatives.

`node.query(selector)` — CSS-like node search

Find nodes within a subtree using CSS-like selectors. Replaces verbose findAll + filter loops.

// BEFORE — verbose traversal
const texts = frame.findAll(n => n.type === 'TEXT' && n.name === 'Title')

// AFTER — one-liner with query
const texts = frame.query('TEXT[name=Title]')

Selector syntax:

Type: FRAME, TEXT, RECTANGLE, ELLIPSE, COMPONENT, INSTANCE, SECTION (case-insensitive)
Attribute exact: [name=Card], [visible=true], [opacity=0.5]
Attribute substring: [name*=art] (contains), [name^=Header] (starts-with), [name$=Nav] (ends-with)
Dot-path traversal: [fills.0.type=SOLID], [fills.*.type=SOLID] (wildcard index)
Instance matching: [mainComponent=nodeId], [mainComponent.name=Button]
Combinators: FRAME > TEXT (direct child), FRAME TEXT (any descendant), A + B (adjacent sibling), A ~ B (general sibling)
Pseudo-classes: :first-child, :last-child, :nth-child(2), :not(TYPE), :is(FRAME, RECTANGLE), :where(TEXT, ELLIPSE)
Node ID: #nodeId or bare GUID
Comma: TEXT, RECTANGLE (union)
Wildcard: * (any type)

QueryResult methods:

Method	Description
`.length`	Number of matched nodes
`.first()`	First matched node (or `null`)
`.last()`	Last matched node (or `null`)
`.toArray()`	Convert to regular array
`.each(fn)`	Iterate with callback, returns `this` for chaining
`.map(fn)`	Map to new array
`.filter(fn)`	Filter to new QueryResult
`.values(keys)`	Extract property values: `.values(['name', 'x', 'y'])` → `[{name, x, y}, ...]`
`.set(props)`	Set properties on all matched nodes (see `node.set()` below)
`.query(selector)`	Sub-query within matched nodes
`for...of`	Iterable — works in `for` loops

Scope: node.query() searches within that node's subtree. To search the whole page: figma.currentPage.query('...'). There is no global figma.query().

Examples:

// Recolor all text inside cards
figma.currentPage.query('FRAME[name^=Card] TEXT').set({
  fills: [{type: 'SOLID', color: {r: 0.2, g: 0.2, b: 0.8}}]
})

// Get names and positions of all frames
return figma.currentPage.query('FRAME').values(['name', 'x', 'y'])

// Find the first component named "Button"
const btn = figma.currentPage.query('COMPONENT[name=Button]').first()

// Find all instances of a specific component
figma.currentPage.query(`INSTANCE[mainComponent=${compId}]`)

// Find nodes with solid fills using dot-path traversal
figma.currentPage.query('[fills.0.type=SOLID]')

`node.set(props)` — batch property updates

Set multiple properties in one call. Returns this for chaining.

// BEFORE — one line per property
frame.opacity = 0.5
frame.cornerRadius = 8
frame.name = "Card"

// AFTER — single call
frame.set({ opacity: 0.5, cornerRadius: 8, name: "Card" })

Priority key ordering: layoutMode is always applied before other properties (like width/height) regardless of object key order. This prevents the common bug where resize() behaves differently depending on whether layoutMode is set.

Width/height handling: width and height are routed through node.resize() automatically — setting { width: 200 } calls resize(200, currentHeight).

Chaining with query:

// Find all rectangles named "Divider" and update them
figma.currentPage.query('RECTANGLE[name=Divider]').set({
  fills: [{type: 'SOLID', color: {r: 0.9, g: 0.9, b: 0.9}}],
  cornerRadius: 2
})

`figma.createAutoLayout(direction?, props?)` — auto-layout frames

Creates a frame with auto-layout already enabled and both axes hugging content. This is the default container whenever children have a structural relationship to each other (see Rule 12a).

// BEFORE — manual setup, easy to get ordering wrong
const frame = figma.createFrame()
frame.layoutMode = 'VERTICAL'
frame.primaryAxisSizingMode = 'AUTO'
frame.counterAxisSizingMode = 'AUTO'
frame.layoutSizingHorizontal = 'HUG'
frame.layoutSizingVertical = 'HUG'

// AFTER — one call, layout ready
const frame = figma.createAutoLayout('VERTICAL')

Children can immediately use layoutSizingHorizontal/Vertical = 'FILL' after being appended — no need to set sizing modes manually.

Accepts an optional props object as the first or second argument:

figma.createAutoLayout({ name: 'Card', itemSpacing: 12 })               // HORIZONTAL + props
figma.createAutoLayout('VERTICAL', { name: 'Column', itemSpacing: 8 })  // VERTICAL + props

`node.placeholder` — shimmer overlay for AI-in-progress feedback

Sets a visual shimmer overlay on a node indicating work is in progress. Always remove the shimmer when done — leftover shimmers confuse users and indicate incomplete work.

// Mark as in-progress
frame.placeholder = true

// ... build out the content ...

// MUST remove when done — never leave shimmers on finished nodes
frame.placeholder = false

When building complex layouts, set placeholder = true on sections before populating them, then set placeholder = false on each section as it's completed.

`await node.screenshot(opts?)` — inline screenshots

Capture a node as a PNG and return it inline in the response. Eliminates the need for a separate get_screenshot call.

// Take a screenshot of a frame (returned inline in the tool response)
await frame.screenshot()

// Custom scale (default auto-scales: 0.5x or capped so max dimension ≤ 1024px)
await frame.screenshot({ scale: 2 })

// Include overlapping content from sibling nodes
await frame.screenshot({ contentsOnly: false })

When to use: After creating or modifying nodes, call screenshot() to visually verify the result within the same script. No need for a separate get_screenshot call.

Auto-naming: The image caption includes node metadata — "Card (300x150 at 0,60).png" — giving spatial context without parsing the image.

Default scaling: Uses 0.5x scale, but automatically caps so the largest output dimension never exceeds 1024px. Explicit { scale: N } bypasses the cap.

6. Incremental Workflow (How to Avoid Bugs)

The most common cause of bugs is trying to do too much in a single use_figma call. Work in small steps and validate after each one.

Key rules

At most 10 logical operations per use_figma call. A "logical operation" is creating a node, setting its properties, and parenting it. If you need to create 20 nodes, split across 2-3 calls. Slides override: in Slides files, slides are isolated subtrees — the relevant limit is complexity per slide, not total nodes across slides. Building 3–5 new slides in one call is safe, and so is applying the same edit (e.g. adding a footer, recoloring a heading) across every slide in the deck in a single call. See figma-use-slides for the deck-building workflow.
Build top-down, starting with placeholders. Create the outer structure first with placeholder = true on each section, then incrementally replace placeholders with real content in subsequent calls.

The pattern

Inspect first. Before creating anything, run a read-only use_figma to discover what already exists in the file — pages, components, variables, naming conventions. Match what's there.
Build the skeleton. Create the top-level structure with placeholder sections. Set placeholder = true on each section so the user sees progress.
Fill in sections incrementally. In each subsequent call, populate one section and set its placeholder = false when done. Take a screenshot() to verify.
Return IDs from every call. Always return created node IDs, variable IDs, collection IDs as objects (e.g. return { createdNodeIds: [...] }). You'll need these as inputs to subsequent calls.
Validate after each step. Use get_metadata to verify structure (counts, names, hierarchy, positions). Use await node.screenshot() inline or get_screenshot after major milestones to catch visual issues.
Fix before moving on. If validation reveals a problem, fix it before proceeding to the next step. Don't build on a broken foundation.

Suggested step order for complex tasks

Step 1: Inspect file — discover existing pages, components, variables, conventions
Step 2: Create tokens/variables (if needed)
       → validate with get_metadata
Step 3: Create individual components
       → validate with get_metadata + get_screenshot
Step 4: Compose layouts from component instances
       → validate with get_screenshot
Step 5: Final verification

What to validate at each step

After...	Check with `get_metadata`	Check with `get_screenshot`
Creating variables	Collection count, variable count, mode names	—
Creating components	Child count, variant names, property definitions	Variants visible, not collapsed, grid readable
Binding variables	Node properties reflect bindings	Colors/tokens resolved correctly
Composing layouts	Instance nodes have mainComponent, hierarchy correct	No cropped/clipped text, no overlapping elements, correct spacing

7. Error Recovery & Self-Correction

use_figma is atomic — failed scripts do not execute. If a script errors, no changes are made to the file. The file remains in the same state as before the call. This means there are no partial nodes, no orphaned elements from the failed script, and retrying after a fix is safe.

When `use_figma` returns an error

STOP. Do not immediately fix the code and retry.
Read the error message carefully. Understand exactly what went wrong — wrong API usage, missing font, invalid property value, etc.
If the error is unclear, call get_metadata or get_screenshot to understand the current file state.
Fix the script based on the error message.
Retry the corrected script.

Common self-correction patterns

Error message	Likely cause	How to fix
`"not implemented"`	Used `figma.notify()`	Remove it — use `return` for output
`Error: in set_layoutSizingHorizontal: node must be an auto-layout frame or a child of an auto-layout frame` / `Error: in set_layoutSizingHorizontal: FILL can only be set on children of auto-layout frames` / `"HUG can only be set on auto-layout frames or text children of auto-layout frames"` / `"FILL cannot be set on absolute positioned auto-layout children"` / `"FILL cannot be set on canvas grid children"`	Tried to assign `HUG`/`FILL` to a node whose structural context doesn't allow it (e.g. parent isn't auto-layout, ran before `appendChild`, non-text child trying to `HUG`, absolute-positioned child trying to `FILL`)	Make the parent auto-layout via `figma.createAutoLayout()`; `appendChild` first; reserve `HUG` for the auto-layout frame itself or for TEXT children; for absolute/immutable/grid children use `FIXED` + `resize()`. See gotchas.md
`"Setting figma.currentPage is not supported"`	Used sync page setter (`figma.currentPage = page`) which does NOT work	Use `await figma.setCurrentPageAsync(page)` — the only way to switch pages
Property value out of range	Color channel > 1 (used 0–255 instead of 0–1)	Divide by 255
`"Cannot read properties of null"`	Node doesn't exist (wrong ID, wrong page)	Check page context, verify ID
Script hangs / no response	Infinite loop or unresolved promise	Check for `while(true)` or missing `await`; ensure code terminates
`"The node with id X does not exist"`	Parent instance was implicitly detached by a child `detachInstance()`, changing IDs	Re-discover nodes by traversal from a stable (non-instance) parent frame

When the script succeeds but the result looks wrong

Call get_metadata to check structural correctness (hierarchy, counts, positions).
Call get_screenshot to check visual correctness. Look closely for cropped/clipped text (line heights cutting off content) and overlapping elements — these are common and easy to miss.
Identify the discrepancy — is it structural (wrong hierarchy, missing nodes) or visual (wrong colors, broken layout, clipped content)?
Write a targeted fix script that modifies only the broken parts — don't recreate everything.

For the full validation workflow, see Validation & Error Recovery.

8. Pre-Flight Checklist

Before submitting ANY use_figma call, verify:

9. Discover Conventions Before Creating

Always inspect the Figma file before creating anything. Different files use different naming conventions, variable structures, and component patterns. Your code should match what's already there, not impose new conventions.

When in doubt about any convention (naming, scoping, structure), check the Figma file first, then the user's codebase. Only fall back to common patterns when neither exists.

Quick inspection scripts

List all pages and top-level nodes:

const pages = figma.root.children.map(p => `${p.name} id=${p.id} children=${p.children.length}`);
return pages.join('\n');

List existing components across all pages:

search_design_system is an option for published components. For on-canvas components, use the two-step fan-out — don't loop pages inside one script.

Step 1: one read-only use_figma to get page IDs:

return figma.root.children.map(p => ({ id: p.id, name: p.name }));

Step 2: in the next assistant turn, emit one use_figma per page in parallel (a single message containing N tool-use blocks). Each runs:

const page = await figma.getNodeByIdAsync(PAGE_ID);
await figma.setCurrentPageAsync(page);
// findAllWithCriteria uses an indexed type lookup — hundreds of times faster
// than the findAll(n => n.type === '…') side-effect-in-predicate antipattern.
const matches = page.findAllWithCriteria({ types: ['COMPONENT', 'COMPONENT_SET'] });
return matches.map(n => ({ page: page.name, name: n.name, type: n.type, id: n.id }));

List existing variable collections and their conventions:

const collections = await figma.variables.getLocalVariableCollectionsAsync();
const results = collections.map(c => ({
  name: c.name, id: c.id,
  varCount: c.variableIds.length,
  modes: c.modes.map(m => m.name)
}));
return results;
