What figma-use-motion does

figma-use-motion extends figma-use for time-based work in Figma. With use_figma, an agent can read and change manual keyframe tracks, animate fills and strokes, apply or remove animation styles, and set a timeline duration. Pass skillNames: "figma-use-motion" alongside figma-use for motion calls.

The skill covers easing choices, including cubic and spring forms, plus resolved animation data. For motion checks, use export_video and extract frames with ffmpeg; get_screenshot shows the resting state only. The motion API is gated by the user feature flag metronome, so a not a supported API error is a stop condition rather than a reason to retry.

Creating new figma:motion preset modules is outside its scope. Animate descendants instead of a top-level frame, and check that structure before editing keyframes.

What it helps with

  • add keyframes to a Figma node
  • animate fill or stroke colors
  • apply a discovered animation style
  • set a timeline duration
  • inspect motion phases frame by frame

Example prompts for the agent

  • Call `use_figma` with `skillNames: "figma-use-motion,figma-use"` and add `TRANSLATION_X` keyframes to the selected node.
  • Apply an animation style to this node and use `EASE_IN_AND_OUT` for its easing.
  • Export the top-level frame with `export_video`, then inspect selected frames with `ffmpeg`.
