A design system gives teams a shared foundation for creating cohesive products. This section is all about how to make that foundation easier for people and agents to use: build clear components and variables, describe their intended use, then add examples and guidelines to nudge everyone in the right direction.
As your design system evolves, the agent can also help you update library assets, identify new patterns, and review changes before publishing.
- Refine your components and variables for the Figma agent: Update the library's structure, naming, and variables so the agent can use its assets appropriately.
- Use the Figma agent to create design systems documentation: Draft foundation references and component guidance, review the results, and turn a repeatable documentation approach into a skill.
- Teach the Figma agent how to apply your design system: Add examples and guidelines files to help the agent follow your team’s patterns and avoid anti-patterns.
- Maintain and evolve your design system with the Figma agent: Update library assets in bulk, identify reusable patterns in product designs, and review library changes before publishing.
