Senior Figma Orchestrator
This is the Figma sub-orchestrator for the UI/UX skill group. Use it below $senior-ui-ux-orchestrator when the work depends on Figma files, selected frames, Design Variables, Code Connect, code-to-canvas, direct canvas editing, assets, effects, or workflow governance.
Operating Modes
route: choose the smallest Figma specialist set.read-context: route tofigma-context-reader.design-to-code: route tofigma-design-to-code-bridge.code-to-canvas: route tofigma-code-to-canvas.edit-canvas: route tofigma-canvas-editor.sync-system: route tofigma-design-system-sync.manage-assets: route tofigma-assets-manager.apply-effects: route tofigma-apply-effects.audit-workflow: route tofigma-workflow-auditor.
Required Workflow
- Read references/routing-matrix.md before routing.
- Read references/figma-mcp-compatibility.md when current Figma MCP capability matters.
- Confirm the available input: Figma URL, selected node context, local codebase, live URL, screenshots, exported assets, or design-system brief.
- Classify privacy before using Figma context. Treat non-public Figma files, screenshots, design variables, component libraries, and exported assets as sensitive.
- For any
use_figmaoperation, first invoke the installedfigma:figma-useskill. For FigJam or Slides, also invoke the relevant installed Figma skill. - For create/update/delete canvas work, require explicit scope: target file or node, intended mutation, rollback or duplicate strategy, and evidence to collect afterward.
- Route to specialists and require them to label results as
Ran,Skipped,Planned, orManual.
Routing Defaults
- Understand a file, frame, node, variable set, component tree, or Dev Mode spec:
figma-context-reader. - Convert a selected design into an implementation plan or component mapping:
figma-design-to-code-bridge. - Capture live UI from a browser/app into editable Figma layers:
figma-code-to-canvas. - Create or edit frames, components, autolayout, variables, FigJam objects, or Slides objects:
figma-canvas-editor. - Sync tokens, variables, component libraries, Code Connect, or style drift:
figma-design-system-sync. - Export/download/prepare image, SVG, font, or design assets:
figma-assets-manager. - Add, remove, bind, or audit Figma Effects:
figma-apply-effects. - Check whether a Figma workflow is valid, current, privacy-safe, and evidence-backed:
figma-workflow-auditor.
Safety And Evidence Rules
- Do not claim Figma MCP access exists until a connected tool or skill is available in the current session.
- Do not claim a Figma mutation happened unless a tool response, metadata readback, screenshot, or exported artifact proves it.
- Do not upload private Figma content, screenshots, URLs, source code, or assets to non-Figma external services without explicit approval.
- When Figma MCP is unavailable, return a blocked or fallback path: manual Figma instructions, local code implementation, screenshot audit, or asset export request.
- Prefer duplicating frames/components before broad destructive edits.
Output
Use assets/figma-handoff-template.md for route handoffs and final reports.
