What it does

Runs a structured questionnaire to understand your design system needs, then generates a W3C Design Token Community Group (DTCG) compliant ZIP archive. The ZIP contains JSON token files organized into collection tiers: Primitives (raw values), Semantic (contextual aliases), and Component (component-specific tokens). Also provides a companion Figma plugin that imports these JSON files into Figma Variables, respecting dependency order across tiers.

When NOT to use

  • Code-side token management and pipelines — use design-tokens-skill
  • Existing design systems not based in Figma
  • Figma design operations unrelated to tokens — use the Figma MCP (figma-official-skills)
