Figma

Show live designs in docs and stories, let Releavo read them, and pair the plugin when you want it to edit.

Figma works at two levels. Seeing designs needs nothing. Releavo reading and editing them needs the Figma connector.

1. Show a design anywhere

Paste a Figma link on a line of its own in a doc, a story or a chat message. Releavo shows the live design right there: pan, zoom, click through a prototype. It's always the current version.

Link to a frame (right-click it in Figma → Copy link to selection) to show just that screen, for example on the story it belongs to.

Private files: Figma decides who sees what. Someone with access sees the design (signed in to Figma once in that browser); someone without sees Figma's request-access screen, never the design. For clients without a Figma account, set the file's link sharing to anyone with the link can view, or invite them as free viewers.

2. Let Releavo read designs (for the whole team)

A project admin or the PM connects Figma once. It's read-only: everyone's questions read designs through it, and it never changes anything.

1. In Figma: Settings → Security → Personal access tokens → Generate new token (Figma's help on creating one). Give it read scopes (file content, metadata, versions, comments, library) and the longest expiry Figma offers, 90 days.
2. In Releavo: Connectors → Figma → Add token, paste it.

Releavo sees what that Figma account can see. Then ask things like:

• "Does the UX spec match the designs?" It goes through every screen and state the spec lists and says what's missing.
• "Is every acceptance criterion on CON-4 designed?" Criteria with no screen get a comment on the story.

3. Let Releavo edit a design (just for you)

Editing is personal. Each person who wants Releavo to edit adds Figma editing for themselves: Connectors → Just for you → Figma editing → Add for me (no token). Only they see it, and Releavo uses it only when they ask. Edits go through the Releavo Figma Bridge plugin in their own Figma desktop app, while they have the file open, under their name. Pairing lasts 30 days:

1. Install the plugin once: download the Releavo Figma Bridge and unzip it. Then in the Figma desktop app choose Plugins → Development → Import plugin from manifest and pick manifest.json from the unzipped folder. (It's the Figma Desktop Bridge from Figma Console MCP, set up to pair with Releavo. The original plugin won't accept Releavo's codes.)
2. Ask Releavo for the change ("draft the empty state for the task list").
3. Releavo replies with a pairing card like this one. Copy the code, run Plugins → Development → Releavo Figma Bridge in Figma, paste the code and click Connect:

4. Releavo works in the file and tells you what it made. It adds new frames next to yours rather than changing your work, unless you asked for exactly that.

A pairing lasts 30 days and survives closing Figma: next time, open the plugin and it reconnects by itself, so Releavo can work in your file whenever you ask while the plugin is open. Client stakeholders can only read designs.
