Figma AI Sync Tool

This tool integrates with the Figma API and AI models like OpenAI Codex to allow seamless export, transformation, and re-import of design elements. It enables developers to automate updates to design systems, optimize designs using AI, and sync changes back to Figma.

What It Does

  • Export Figma Design Elements: Programmatically fetch design elements from Figma files.
  • AI-Driven Optimization: Use OpenAI models to optimize layouts and styles.
  • Re-Import Updates: Sync optimized design elements back to Figma.

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

git clone <repository_url>

cd <repository_folder>

2. Install dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt

3. Set up environment variables:

Create a .env file in the project root and add:

OPENAI_API_KEY=<your_openai_api_key>

Usage

Run the tool using the following command:

python figma_ai_sync.py --file-id <figma_file_id> --access-token <api_token> --optimize-layout

Example:

python figma_ai_sync.py --file-id abc123 --access-token xyz456 --optimize-layout
