# figma-generate-library Builds or updates a Figma design system library directly from your codebase. It keeps design files in sync with shipped components. - skill · `type=skill` · Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI, OpenCode · 2700 installs · ★ 104031 - Author: nexu-io - License: Apache-2.0 · policy=mirror · the beginning of the file is at the end of this page - Source: https://github.com/nexu-io/open-design/tree/HEAD/skills/figma-generate-library/SKILL.md - Updated: 2026-10-25 - HTML: https://affpapa.org/en/nevibecode/skills/nexu-io-figma-generate-library ## What it does This skill builds or updates a design system library in Figma using the project codebase. The entry in OpenDesign exposes the skill to the AI agent during task planning. It originates from the Figma MCP server guide. Running the complete workflow with original assets, scripts, and references requires installing the upstream bundle from `https://github.com/figma/skills`. Without that repository, the agent only holds catalogue metadata. It will lack the actual automation scripts. You can trigger the workflow by referencing `figma-generate-library` directly or asking the agent to sync Figma with code. ## Requirements - Works with: Figma ## Install ### Claude Code (native platform) 1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add nexu-io/open-design --skill figma-generate-library -a claude-code ``` 2. **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `~/.claude/skills/figma-generate-library/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/figma-generate-library/ ### Codex 1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add nexu-io/open-design --skill figma-generate-library -a codex ``` 2. **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `.agents/skills/figma-generate-library/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/ ### Cursor 1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add nexu-io/open-design --skill figma-generate-library -a cursor ``` 2. **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `.cursor/skills/figma-generate-library/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/ ### GitHub Copilot 1. **GitHub CLI** ```bash gh skill install nexu-io/open-design figma-generate-library ``` 2. **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `.github/skills/figma-generate-library/SKILL.md` ### Gemini CLI 1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add nexu-io/open-design --skill figma-generate-library -a gemini-cli ``` 2. **Platform CLI** ```bash gemini skills install https://github.com/nexu-io/open-design --path skills/figma-generate-library ``` ### Windsurf (Devin Desktop) **Manually: put the files in place** - File: `.devin/skills/figma-generate-library/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works ### OpenCode **Skills CLI (Vercel)** ```bash npx skills add nexu-io/open-design --skill figma-generate-library -a opencode ``` ### Claude.ai **Claude.ai** - Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/nexu-io/open-design/tree/HEAD/skills/figma-generate-library/SKILL.md ## When to use it - generate a Figma design system library from codebase components - keep Figma library components in sync with shipped code - update existing Figma design assets after UI code changes - let the agent discover design system workflows during planning ## Example prompts - Run figma-generate-library to sync design system components from the codebase - Update our figma library with the latest changes from the UI components - Build a design system library in Figma from this codebase ## Source text · SKILL.md · Apache-2.0 Below is the content of a third-party file.

To run the full upstream workflow with its original assets, scripts, and references, install the upstream bundle into your active agent's skills directory: ```bash # Inspect the upstream README for exact paths open https://github.com/figma/skills ``` Then ask the agent to invoke this skill by name (`figma-generate-library`) or with one of the trigger phrases listed in this skill's frontmatter. ```` END THIRD-PARTY FILE 3b3cbb818104ae1b The third-party file has ended.
