Pm-claude-skills figma-prototype-plan

Plan prototype interactions and flows for user testing in Figma. Use when asked to plan a Figma prototype, set up prototype interactions, define what to prototype for a user test, or prepare a Figma prototype for usability testing. Produces a prototype scope, interaction specification, test task scripts, and Figma setup guide.

Figma Prototype Plan Skill

Plans what to prototype in Figma and how — scoping to what the user test needs, defining every interaction, and setting up the test scenarios. Prevents over-building and ensures the prototype answers the research question.

Required Inputs

  • Research question (what are you trying to learn?)
  • Feature or flow being prototyped
  • Prototype fidelity (low wireframe / mid functional / high pixel-perfect)
  • Testing method (moderated in-person / moderated remote / unmoderated)
  • Number of test tasks

Output Structure

1. Prototype Scope

In scope: [Flows with real interactions — specific screens listed] Out of scope: [Screens to show as static — not worth building as interactive] Rationale: Prototypes should be the minimum needed to test the hypothesis.

2. Interaction Specification

Interaction N: [Description]

  • Trigger: Tap/Swipe/Hover/Form submit
  • Element: [Figma layer name]
  • Destination: [Figma frame name]
  • Animation: Instant/Dissolve/Push left/Push right/Slide up
  • Timing: [ms]
  • Reset after: Yes/No

3. Prototype Flow Diagram

[Start frame]
  -> Tap "Action"
[Next frame]
  -> Tap "Complete" -> [Success frame]
  -> Tap "Cancel"   -> [Back to start]

4. Test Task Scripts

Task N: [Title]

Scenario (read to participant): "[Realistic scenario giving context without directing the click path]"

Observing:

  • [What to watch for]

Success when: [Specific trigger]

5. Figma Setup Guide

  • Starting frame: [Name]
  • Device preview: [Device]
  • Prototype settings: background colour, show device, type
  • Sharing: Can view link, reset process between participants

6. Build vs Fake Table

Primary CTA flowYesCore to research
Secondary navYesNot being tested
Error stateYesTesting recovery

Quality Checks

  • Scope limited to what the research question requires
  • Every interaction has a named destination frame
  • Task scripts are scenario-based (not "click on X")
  • Success criteria defined for each task
  • Reset process defined for between participants

Example Trigger Phrases

  • "Plan the Figma prototype for our user test on [feature]"
  • "What interactions do I need to build for this prototype?"
  • "Help me set up a Figma prototype for [research question]"
  • "Write the test task scripts for our [feature] prototype"
  • "What should I prototype vs leave as static screens?"
