Perplexity

Generate UI from Figma node data

Feed your agent precise layout data using `get_file_nodes`. It reads the structure and converts frames into code components. Since the agent sees real node IDs and styles, your generated code matches the design specs. No more manual translation.

Automate asset retrieval in Cursor

Use `get_image_fills` to find every image used in a file. It maps the URLs to the specific nodes, so you know exactly what to download. Your agent can iterate through these fills and save them to your local project directory. It saves you from hunting through the export panel.

Sync design system components

Query your design system with `get_team_components`. It pulls the latest metadata so your agent knows the current state of your shared library. When you use `get_component` to verify a specific item, the agent gets the exact description and owning file. This keeps your code in sync with the design source.
