A container for your context that lives on the Figma canvas
Figma Specs is a collaborative Markdown document that can live on its own or beside your designs. Embed Figma frames and FigJam diagrams, work through comments with teammates and agents, and pass the full context to coding agents through MCP.
Figma actually used Specs to build Specs. One of its engineers documented edge cases, embedded FigJam diagrams, and handed the spec and his teammates' comments to a coding agent. As development progressed, he used MCP to keep the original doc updated.
Now you can drop a .md file onto the Figma canvas, embed actual frames or FigJam diagrams, and pull them back out to edit. Teammates and Figma's agent can work through comments together. Send the spec link to Codex via Figma MCP, and it gets the Markdown and the linked design context.
Of course Figma found a way to make .md files draggable!
