create_new_file — Create a New Figma File

MANDATORY: load this skill before every create_new_file tool call. It encodes the plan-resolution decision tree, the editor-type contract, and the post-creation handoff to use_figma.

Use the create_new_file MCP tool to create a new blank Figma file in the user's drafts folder. This is typically used before use_figma when you need a fresh file to work with.

Skill Arguments

This skill accepts optional arguments: /figma-create-new-file [editorType] [fileName]

  • editorType: design (default), figjam, or slides
  • fileName: Name for the new file (defaults to "Untitled")

Examples:

  • /figma-create-new-file — creates a design file named "Untitled"
  • /figma-create-new-file figjam My Whiteboard — creates a FigJam file named "My Whiteboard"
