Figma UI Skills
Opinionated constraints for building Figma-style interfaces with AI agents.
When to Apply
Reference these guidelines when:
-
Building light-mode interfaces
-
Creating Figma-inspired design systems
-
Implementing UIs with Inter font and 4px grid
Colors
-
SHOULD use light backgrounds for primary surfaces
-
MUST use #FFFFFF as page background (surface-base )
-
MUST use #BEBAF6 for primary actions and focus states (accent )
-
SHOULD reduce color palette (currently 12 colors detected)
-
MUST maintain text contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 for accessibility
Semantic Tokens
Token HEX RGB Usage
surface-base
#FFFFFF rgb(255,255,255) Page background
surface-raised
#3A28FA rgb(58,40,250) Cards, modals, raised surfaces
surface-overlay
#E7E7E7 rgb(231,231,231) Overlays, tooltips, dropdowns
text-primary
#545454 rgb(84,84,84) Headings, body text
text-2
#262626 rgb(38,38,38) Additional text
text-tertiary
#656565 rgb(101,101,101) Additional text
border-default
#4D3ECF rgb(77,62,207) Subtle borders, dividers
accent
#BEBAF6 rgb(190,186,246) Primary actions, links, focus
Typography
-
MUST use Inter as primary font family
-
SHOULD use single font family for consistency
-
MUST use 57px / extra_bold for primary headings
-
MUST use 36px / 700 for body text
-
SHOULD reduce font weights (currently 5 detected)
-
MUST use text-balance for headings and text-pretty for body text
-
SHOULD use tabular-nums for numeric data
-
NEVER modify letter-spacing unless explicitly requested

Typography Reference
Font Families:
- Inter (used 23x)
Font Sizes: 13px, 14px, 15px, 16px, 17px, 18px, 20px, 22px, 26px, 28px, 30px, 36px, 57px
Spacing
-
MUST use 4px grid for spacing
-
SHOULD use spacing from scale: 2px, 4px, 5px, 9px, 10px, 11px, 37px, 67px
-
SHOULD use 5px as default gap between elements
-
NEVER use arbitrary spacing values (use design scale)
-
SHOULD maintain consistent padding within containers
Borders
-
MUST use border-radius from scale: 3px, 4px
-
MUST use 1px border width consistently
-
SHOULD use 3px as default border-radius
-
NEVER use arbitrary border-radius values (use design scale)
-
SHOULD use subtle borders (1px) for element separation
Border Radius Reference
Scale: 3px, 4px
Layout
-
MUST design for 1920px base viewport width
-
SHOULD use consistent element widths: 36px, 12px, 18px, 79px, 21px
-
SHOULD maintain text-heavy layout with clear hierarchy
-
NEVER use h-screen , use h-dvh for full viewport height
-
MUST respect safe-area-inset for fixed elements
-
SHOULD use size-* for square elements instead of w-*
- h-*
Detected Layout Patterns
-
Main Content: width: 1920px, height: 900px
-
Main Content: width: 1602px, height: 617px
-
Header: height: 81px
Components
Buttons
Variant Background Text Border Height Radius
Ghost transparent #BEBAF6 none
Interactive States
Focus
-
MUST use 2px outline with accent color (#BEBAF6 )
-
MUST use 2px outline-offset
-
NEVER remove focus indicators
Hover
-
Buttons (primary): lighten background by 10%
-
Buttons (secondary): use #3A28FA background
-
List items: use #3A28FA background
Disabled
-
MUST use opacity: 0.5
-
MUST use cursor: not-allowed
Interaction
-
MUST use an AlertDialog for destructive or irreversible actions
-
SHOULD use structural skeletons for loading states
-
MUST show errors next to where the action happens
-
NEVER block paste in input or textarea elements
-
MUST add an aria-label to icon-only buttons
Animation
-
NEVER add animation unless it is explicitly requested
-
MUST animate only compositor props (transform , opacity )
-
NEVER animate layout properties (width , height , top , left , margin , padding )
-
SHOULD use ease-out on entrance animations
-
NEVER exceed 200ms for interaction feedback
-
SHOULD respect prefers-reduced-motion
Performance
-
NEVER animate large blur() or backdrop-filter surfaces
-
NEVER apply will-change outside an active animation
-
NEVER use useEffect for anything that can be expressed as render logic
