What it does

Turns the moment a designer flags a frame as approved into a complete, downloadable handoff package. It exports the frame image and its component assets, files them in a predictable Dropbox folder structure, and registers the handoff in a Coda checklist that engineering works from.

When to use it

Use it when your design-to-dev handoff is ad hoc — designers ping engineers in chat, assets get re-exported by hand, and nobody is sure which version is current. This makes the package the single source of truth and removes the manual export busywork.

How it works

  1. 1A Figma webhook fires when a frame's status changes to Ready for Dev.
  2. 2A filter confirms the status is actually approved and the frame is inside a tracked project file.
  3. 3The workflow pulls the frame metadata and exports the frame plus its image assets from Figma.
  4. 4It creates a dated, named folder in Dropbox and uploads the frame export and assets into it.
  5. 5It appends a row to the Coda handoff checklist with the frame name, Dropbox link, and a fresh checklist of dev tasks.
  6. 6The Coda row link is returned as the handoff package reference.
