Excerpt

Figma variable audit

A skill for auditing Figma variable collections against three-tier token architecture principles. Produces a structured report with severity-rated findings and a prioritised remediation list. For teams whose source of truth lives in Figma variables rather than code.

Context

This skill applies the three-tier token architecture model to Figma variables: primitives encode raw values, semantic variables encode intent, and component-tier variables map intent to specific UI contexts. Figma-native teams treat variables as their token source of truth — this audit reads Figma directly and validates the same structural dimensions as the code-based token-audit: naming conventions, tier separation, alias chains, mode coverage, orphaned variables, and DTCG readiness.

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
