figma-build
Turn code or a description into a Figma design that looks like it belongs in the file: reuse the
components, variables, and styles that already exist, and only build what's genuinely missing. This
is the mirror image of figma-codegen — same "reuse beats regenerate / reference tokens not
literals" philosophy, pointed at the canvas instead of the codebase. This file is the router; deep
detail lives in references/ — load a reference when its step is in play.
You operate on the connected Figma file (the plugin's current session). There is no fetch-by-URL;
the user must have the target file open. Confirm a plugin is connected (ping) before building.
When to use
- The user wants to create or update something in Figma from code or a description — a screen, view, modal/dialog/drawer/sidebar/panel, a single component, or a design-system asset.
- Not for reading a Figma design into code — that's
figma-codegen.
