Sync Variables from Figma
Sync CSS variables from Figma plugin variables2css export to globals.css.
Rules
- Only update existing variables - Never add new variables
- Keep code order - Only change values, not structure
- Direct mappings only - Only update if Figma has a matching variable
- Use Figma plugin export - Do NOT use Figma MCP for variables (incomplete data)
Source Files
- Source of truth: Figma plugin export (user provides)
- Target:
apps/web/src/styles/globals.css
Process
- Ask user for Figma CSS Variables plugin export
- Compare Figma values vs
globals.css existing variables
- Update only values that differ (use direct hex values)
- Verify:
yarn workspace @safe-global/web type-check
