# Figma Design Handoff Figma dominates design tooling in 2026, with the majority of product teams using it as their primary design tool. A structured handoff workflow eliminates design drift — the gap between what designers create and what developers build. This skill covers the full pipeline: Figma Variables to design tokens, component spec extraction, Dev Mode inspection, Auto Layout to CSS mapping, and visual regression testing. ## Quick Reference | Rule | File | Impact | When to Use | |------|------|--------|-------------| | Figma Variables & Tokens | `rules/figma-variables-tokens.md` | CRITICAL | Converting Figma Variables to W3C design tokens JSON | | Component Specs | `rules/figma-component-specs.md` | HIGH | Extracting component props, variants, states from Figma | | Dev Mode Inspection | `rules/figma-dev-mode.md` | HIGH | Measurements, spacing, typography, asset export | | Auto Layout → CSS | `rules/figma-auto-layout.md` | HIGH | Mapping Auto Layout to Flexbox/Grid | | Visual Regression | `rules/figma-visual-regression.md` | MEDIUM | Comparing production UI against Figma designs | **Total: 5 rules across 1 category** ## Figma Dev Mode MCP Server (2026 default path) The Figma Dev Mode MCP Server replaces most manual REST + Dev Mode inspection. Configure it once and any Claude Code session with Figma access can pull design context, tokens, and code mappings directly.

figma

Use the Figma MCP server to fetch design context, screenshots, variables, and assets from Figma, and to translate Figma nodes into production code. Trigger when a task involves Figma URLs, node IDs, design-to-code implementation, or Figma MCP setup and troubleshooting.
