CD figma-use

**MANDATORY prerequisite** — you MUST invoke this skill BEFORE every `use_figma` tool call. NEVER call `use_figma` directly without loading this skill first. Skipping it causes common, hard-to-debug failures. Trigger whenever the user wants to perform a write action or a unique read action that requires JavaScript execution in the Figma file context — e.g. create/edit/delete nodes, set up variables or tokens, build components and variants, modify auto-layout or fills, bind variables to properties, or inspect file structure programmatically.

The skillemall take

The skill promises to prepare context before any Figma API call — without it the tool fails with hard-to-debug errors. Designed for node operations, variables, components, and file structure work.

Checks show: grade C, quality 66 percent, process 42 percent. No critical issues, but broken references and missing files detected — 22 files in the folder, zero scripts. Code never ran on models, untested in sandbox.

Use it for basic Figma operations, but don't treat it as a universal solution. Verify dependencies are intact before running.

How to improve

  1. The SKILL.md body is over 5,000 tokens: move reference detail into references/ and load it when needed.
  2. The text references files that are not there: add them or drop the references.
For the model run — optional
  • Your own cases (evals/evals.json, 4–6 real requests with expected answers): the full check would then run those instead of a model-drafted suite.
  • A spec.yaml with trigger phrases and assertions — a behaviour contract for CI; `skilltest init` writes a template.

Everything here is measured from the skill text rather than judged by a model, so the numbers are checkable. A parameter weighs more when it is a more common reason for the process to stall.
