As a designer, I work through interfaces, not terminals. Claude Code changed that; letting me direct the work the way I’d brief a collaborator: plain English, clear intent, real output. I think in systems, design psychology, user experience. Claude handles the implementation.
Most design tools assume you start in Figma and build toward code. This workflow goes the other way: you have a working app, and you want design documentation that stays in sync with it; without rebuilding every screen from scratch.
This guide covers one specific workflow: pushing your running app into Figma as editable design layers. Not screenshots. Real frames, real components, real layer trees you can inspect and hand off.
