get_screenshot

Capture a PNG screenshot of a Figma node to visually verify style changes. Specify node ID and optional scale (0.5–2) for higher resolution.

Instructions

Capture a PNG screenshot of a node.

Use after style changes to visually verify the result instead of reading properties back. Returns base64 PNG data embedded in the response.

Parameters: node: Node ID from jsx/inspect results (e.g. "100:5"). Page root ("/") is not supported. scale: Export scale 0.5–2 (default 1). Higher = larger file. padding: Reserved for future use — currently ignored.

Examples: get_screenshot({node: "100:5"}) → PNG at 1x get_screenshot({node: "100:5", scale: 2}) → PNG at 2x (sharper)

Behavior4/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Notes return format (base64 PNG) and unsupported page root. No annotations provided, so description carries burden; it adequately discloses behavior without contradictions.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Concise lead sentence, followed by usage guide, return info, parameter list, and examples. No redundant or unnecessary content.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness5/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Covers purpose, when to use, parameters, and return format. With no output schema, it sufficiently describes output. Complete for a capture tool.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters5/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 100%, but description adds examples, default value, and notes on padding (future use), providing significant added value beyond schema.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

Clearly states it captures a PNG screenshot of a node, distinct from sibling tools that deal with properties, components, or other operations.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines4/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Provides explicit guidance to use after style changes for visual verification, implying alternative of reading properties. Does not name a specific sibling, but context is clear.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
