What design token format does it support?

It extracts tokens using the W3C Design Tokens Community Group (DTCG) standard, ensuring compatibility with most modern design system tools and frontend frameworks.

Can it work without a Figma link?

While optimized for Figma, the skill includes a manual workflow that allows you to provide design information via chat to still benefit from structured implementation planning.

Does it support Tailwind CSS?

Yes, it specifically supports design token integration via Tailwind's @theme directive and can provide configuration recommendations based on Figma variables.

Does this skill require Figma Desktop to be running?

Yes, for the automated workflow, Figma Desktop must be running with the local MCP server enabled in preferences to securely bridge design data to Claude Code.

How does it handle component mapping?

It uses Figma Code Connect for 100% accuracy where available, and falls back to fuzzy name matching and UI kit inventory analysis to suggest the best component matches in your code.

Design Tools

Automates the design-to-code workflow by bridging Figma mockups and codebase implementation through intelligent token extraction and component mapping.

About

The Product Design skill for Claude Code transforms the traditional handoff process by integrating Figma directly into the development environment via a local MCP server. It handles complex tasks such as extracting W3C-standard design tokens, mapping Figma components to existing UI kits, detecting design system drift, and generating phased implementation plans. By automating the analysis and task creation phases, it reduces manual handoff time by up to 95%, ensuring pixel-perfect implementation while maintaining strict design system adherence across your project.
