# figjam-create-content — author & read FigJam boards Build FigJam boards one element at a time and read them back. Covers stickies (single + batch), connectors, shapes-with-text, sections, tables, code blocks, auto-arrange, plus `get board contents` and `get connections`. This gives you fine-grained control when the native one-shot `generate_diagram` is too coarse (e.g. you want specific colors, positions, magnets, or to extend an existing board). ## Skill boundaries - **`use_figma` rules** — load the official **`figma-use`** skill first; it is the full Figma Plugin API reference. Essentials these scripts rely on: plain JS with top-level `await` + `return` (no IIFE, no `figma.closePlugin()`; `console.log` is not returned), inputs inlined as `const` at the top of each script, colors in 0–1 range, load fonts before any text op, `await figma.getNodeByIdAsync(...)`, and **atomic errors** (a failed script applies nothing — read the error, fix, retry). - **One complete snippet per operation** → [references/figjam-snippets.md](references/figjam-snippets.md). - **Whole-diagram generation in one call** → use the native `generate_diagram` tool instead. ## Workflow 1. **Confirm it's a FigJam

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add southleft/figma-console-mcp-skills --skill figjam-create-content --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From southleft/figma-console-mcp-skills, a repository with 67 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
