What it does

“Always use this skill when the user wants to create a new Figma Design, FigJam, or Slides file. You MUST invoke this skill BEFORE every `create_new_file` tool call.”
The author's description, from SKILL.md

Generated summary from the skill's own text

This skill enables agents to create new Figma files, including Design, FigJam, and Slides projects. It handles plan selection, determines the appropriate editor type, and calls the create_new_file tool with required parameters, with special handling for initializing empty Slides files.

When to use it

  • User requests creation of a new Figma Design, FigJam, or Slides file
  • User wants to set up a new file in a specific Figma team plan
  • Workflow requires initializing a fresh Figma project before editing
  • User needs to create a Slides file and then add content

When not to

  • User wants to modify or edit an existing Figma file instead
  • User has no active Figma plans or team access available
  • Only reading or viewing existing files is needed
