figma-canon
Read-only knowledge base of Figma canon for AI agents: a routing table of on-demand references (Plugin API core, data and anomalies, write atomicity, auto layout, inspection, handoff format, naming, state coverage, quality rubric, AI slop signatures, security, rate limits) plus hard rules learned in production (the canvas mutates under you, null-guard before operating, hex versus token). Use on any mention of Figma, a node id, a design system, a token, a component or auto layout, and before any figma_execute call. It informs writes and never performs one.

- Knowledge only: no scripts, no network, no credentials. Written for agents that work on Figma files through figma-console-mcp (Southleft) and its Desktop Bridge plugin in Figma Desktop, or through the official Figma MCP server (use_figma for writes, get_metadata and its other read tools for reads). The other skills in this set link to its references, so install it with them.
