Use when the user wants to build or edit a Figma Slides deck.
Triggers: 'create a slide', 'add a slide to the deck', 'reorder slides', 'set the slide background', 'add a transition between slides', 'add text/shape to slide 3', 'read what's on this slide', 'skip this slide in the presentation'.
Figma Slides files only (figma.editorType === 'slides').
Requires the Figma Desktop app (Plugin API).

build-slides-figma — author Figma Slides decks
Build and edit Figma Slides presentations: manage the slide grid (list / create / duplicate / reorder / delete / focus / skip), add content (text, shapes, background color), and control transitions. Each slide is a SLIDE node; the deck is a 2D grid (figma.getSlideGrid() → rows of slides).
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/slides-snippets.md](references/slides-snippets.md).
Workflow
Confirm it's a Slides file. Every op throws outside Slides. Check first:
return { editorType: figma.editorType }; — it must be 'slides'.
List slides to get IDs and grid positions (scripts/snippet List slides). Slide IDs are what
every other op references.
Pick the operation from [references/slides-snippets.md](references/slides-snippets.md): create /
duplicate / delete / reorder slides; add text / shape; set background; set / get transition; focus; skip; read slide content.
Run the snippet via use_figma (skillNames: "build-slides-figma"), editing the inlined constants.
Return created/changed slide IDs and re-list or read-content to confirm.
Notes
Adding text loads a font first.add text to slide calls `await figma.loadFontAsync({ family,
style }) before setting .characters` — never skip it. Default is Inter / Regular.
Create at a grid position with figma.createSlide({ row, col }), or figma.createSlide() to append.
