# Academic Figure in Figma (Claude Code) Land a sketch, candidate image, or text description as an **editable, paper-exact vector figure in Figma**, drawn directly through the Figma MCP server. **Draw from this skill alone.** `references/figma-api-cheatsheet.md` + `scripts/figma_lib.js` contain the complete verified API subset — do NOT load the official figma-use skill, the Plugin API typings, or explore the API by trial: that is the slow path this skill replaces. Icons come from the local cache first (`scripts/assets/icons/icons.json`, pre-cleaned, injection-ready). ## Hard rules 1. **Correctness before aesthetics.** Grep the paper for every number, term, metric name, and section reference the figure will carry; show the audit table before drawing. Fix the reference image's errors, never reproduce them. Terminology must match the paper canon verbatim; when the paper is inconsistent, ask the user to pick. Never hard-code section numbers into a figure. 2. **Basic building blocks only.** Frame, Text, Line, Polygon, SVG import, absolute x/y, plus the component-reuse subset (createComponentFromNode / createInstance). Auto Layout, variant sets, Variables, Styles are banned (cheatsheet §Allowed). 3. **Design at final print size** (references/paper-canvas-specs.md). Never draw big and shrink — fonts fall below the 6pt floor. 4. **Figure grammar** (references/figure-grammar.md): evidence for every arrow, no false relays, variables on edges not boxes, opera
