/07-figma — Figma Creation

Construct screens in Figma via MCP following the design plan.

Sub-command Router

Parse $ARGUMENTS:

• Contains `[status]` → Jump to Status Report section
• Contains `[update]` → Jump to Force Status Update section
• Contains `[continue]` or empty → Jump to Execute section
• Other text → Treat as batch number or screen name to construct

Prerequisites

Hard dependencies:

1. Read docs/workflow-status.md — verify step 06 (Design Plan) status == completed
2. Verify docs/Design/figma-design-plan.md exists with screen inventory + frame tree specs

If prerequisites fail:

• Report: "Step 07 cannot start. Missing: design plan with construction specs. Run /06-design-plan first."
• Do NOT proceed.

Pre-flight checks (beyond dependency clearance):

1. Token sync check — Read design plan's Token Sync Log. Compare design doc modification date vs "Last Synced" date. If design doc is newer, warn: "Design tokens have changed since last Figma sync. Update Figma variables before constructing."
2. Corrections log check — Read docs/Design/corrections-log.md (if exists). Note active corrections and graduated rules to apply during construction.
3. Component health check — If continuing construction, verify source components in Figma are populated before instancing (lesson from correction C-002 pattern).
4. MCP connectivity — Test Figma MCP connection before starting a batch.

Execute

Phase 1: Determine Construction Scope

1. Read docs/Design/figma-design-plan.md — full plan
2. Read design plan execution checklists — what's already done?
3. If $ARGUMENTS specifies a batch or screen, scope to that
4. If continuing, pick up from the next unchecked batch
5. Read docs/Design/{{PROJECT_NAME}}-design-document.md — tokens and component specs
6. Read .impeccable.md — brand principles for design rationale

Phase 2: Foundation Setup (first run only)

If Figma file doesn't exist yet (Figma IDs table is empty):

1. Delegate to figma-designer agent to:

• Create Figma file
• Set up variable collections (colors, spacing from design doc)
• Create text styles (from design doc type scale)
• Build base components (from design doc component specs)
• Create pages for each batch

1. Update design plan with populated Figma IDs
2. Update Token Sync Log

Phase 3: Screen Construction

For each batch/screen in scope, delegate to figma-designer agent:

Construct [batch/screen] for {{PROJECT_NAME}} in Figma.

>

Design plan: [inline frame tree specs for this batch] Design tokens: [from design document] Consistency rules: [from design plan] Active corrections: [from corrections log] Graduated rules: [from design plan] Component reference: [node IDs from design plan]

>

Construction rules: - Batch 2-4 screens per MCP call (50KB JS capacity) - Use FILL sizing on children of auto-layout frames - Always use component instances (look up by node ID first) - Set padding on screen frame, not children - Return structured data (node IDs, names, dimensions) for each constructed element - Update design plan checklist on completion

Context Management

The Figma agent reads many large files. To prevent context rot:

• Pass only the current batch's frame tree specs from the design plan, not the full 42KB+ file
• Pass only the consistency rules and token sync log sections
• Pass the component instance reference table (compact)
• Summarize the design document's token tables — don't include full component prose
• Include the corrections log in full (typically small)

Phase 4: Post-Construction

1. Update design plan execution checklist (mark constructed screens)
2. Update design plan Figma IDs table with new frame references
3. If construction produced errors, apply Error Recovery below

Error Recovery

If construction fails or produces incorrect output:

1. Identify the specific failure (MCP error, wrong component, layout broken)
2. Feed the error + current frame state back to the agent:

"Construction failed/incorrect: [specific error or screenshot evidence]. Current state: [node IDs and observed properties]. Please fix: [specific instruction]."

1. The agent retries with the error context (batch fixes into one MCP call)
2. If retry also fails, mark step as blocked (reason) in docs/workflow-status.md

Phase 5: Human Review Gate

1. Update docs/workflow-status.md step 07 status to needs-review
2. Prompt: "Screens constructed. Please review in Figma and report any issues with /correct. Run /07-figma [continue] to approve this batch and proceed to the next."
3. Only [continue] after needs-review transitions to completed (or starts next batch)

Phase 6: Report

Step 07 — Figma Creation: [status]

Foundation: [complete/incomplete]
Screens constructed: [count]/[total]
  Batch 1: [count]/[total] — [status]
  Batch 2: [count]/[total] — [status]
  ...

Pre-flight:
  Token sync: [OK / STALE — update needed]
  Active corrections: [count]
  MCP status: [connected / not tested]

Next actions:
  - Review constructed screens in Figma
  - Run /correct for any visual issues
  - Run /07-figma [continue] for next batch

Status Report

1. Read docs/workflow-status.md — extract step 07 section
2. Read design plan execution checklists — count completed vs total
3. Check token sync freshness
4. Check corrections log for active items
5. Report per-batch progress

Force Status Update

1. Read design plan — count screens with "Last Verified" dates
2. Read corrections log — count active vs completed corrections
3. Check token sync log
4. Update docs/workflow-status.md step 07
