Figma MCP Usage

When the Figma MCP server is connected, use it to translate Figma designs into production-ready Vue components for this monorepo.

Workflow

1. Get the design context

Use get_design_context with the node ID from a Figma URL. If the URL is https://figma.com/design/:fileKey/:fileName?node-id=1-2, the node ID is 1:2.

get_design_context(nodeId: "1:2", clientLanguages: "typescript,html,css", clientFrameworks: "vue")

This returns reference code, a screenshot, and metadata. Always start here.

2. Get a screenshot for visual reference

Use get_screenshot if you need to see the design without full code context:

get_screenshot(nodeId: "1:2")

3. Get variable definitions

Use get_variable_defs to see what design tokens are applied to a node:

get_variable_defs(nodeId: "1:2")

4. Get metadata for structure overview

Use get_metadata to get an XML overview of node IDs, layer types, names, positions and sizes — useful for understanding the structure of a complex frame before diving into individual nodes.

Adapting Figma Output

The Figma MCP returns generic reference code. Adapt it to match the Modrinth codebase:

  1. Read packages/ui/CLAUDE.md for color usage rules, surface token mapping, and component patterns.
  2. Map Figma color variables to surface-* tokens — never use Figma's aliased names like bg/default or bg/raised directly. The CLAUDE.md has the full mapping table.
  3. Check packages/assets/styles/variables.scss for tokens not exposed in Figma (brand highlights, semantic backgrounds, shadows).
  4. Check for existing components in packages/ui/src/components/ before building from scratch.
  5. Match spacing exactly — do not approximate values from the design.
