Create Figma plugins

This is real work, not a feature someone invented — it comes from real job ads and real questions people asked. Below are four ready AI prompts: get it done, make it easy for the next person to say yes to, work out the right move when you are stuck, and stop it coming back.

Create a plugin that lets me quickly swap out all instances of a selected component with another component from a specified library, maintaining its position and overrides.

I need a plugin that helps me check for accessibility issues before I share designs with the QA team. It should flag low-contrast text, missing alt text on images, and any text layers that are too small for readability, so we catch problems earlier.

The marketing team keeps asking for custom image dimensions for every social media platform.
The marketing team keeps asking for custom image dimensions for every social media platform, and I'm spending hours manually resizing and exporting. I'm afraid I'm missing a more efficient way to handle this, but I don't know enough about automation to build a robust solution. There are 10 platforms, and each needs 3 variants. What's the best approach to automate this tedious task without a huge development effort?

I frequently repeat the same small, tedious actions across many design files.
I frequently repeat the same small, tedious actions across many design files, like renaming layers based on specific conventions or updating component properties in bulk. These little tasks add up and steal focus from creative work. What habit should I change to identify and automate these repetitive micro-tasks, so I can spend more time on actual design problems?

Questions people actually ask

honest answers, no sign-up

Every task here was seen in the real world. Someone doing the job named it, a real job ad asked for it, or a lot of people asked about it online.

If nothing real showed a task, it is not on the page. That is the whole rule.

They are the same job approached four ways, because what you need depends on where you are.

Get it done today. Make it easy for the next person to say yes to. Work out the right move when you are stuck. Learn the pattern so the job stops coming back.

For most of these jobs it can carry the heavy thinking - draft it, sort it, check it, rehearse it with you.

It cannot sit in your chair, take the blame when a number is wrong, or notice what nobody wrote down. Let it do the first 80%. Keep the last 20% that is truly yours.

No. Copy any prompt and paste it into the AI you already use. No account, no score, no wall in the way.

Any of them. The prompts describe the work rather than naming a product, so they are not tied to one assistant.

That is also why they keep working when you switch.

Change it freely. Every prompt is a starting line, not a rule.

Put in your real numbers, your real names and your real deadline. The more you make it yours, the better the answer comes back.

The tasks come from real job ads, published job data and the questions people ask in public forums.

The steps come from Figma's own documentation, with practitioner sources for the traps the manual does not mention.

Push once. Ask it to sharpen the weakest part and to say what it assumed.

Most wrong answers come from a missing detail rather than a bad prompt - tell it the thing it could not know.
