FigmaLint v2.5 adds library variable support for cross-file auto-fix token matching¶
Insight: FigmaLint v2.5.0 extends auto-fix token matching to search published library variables in addition to local variables, supporting the common design system setup where variables live in a dedicated file and components in separate files. Library variables are imported and cached per session for performance, with local results always returned even if library search fails.
Detail: This addresses a practical gap in design system linting: most mature design systems keep variables in a separate library file, meaning local-only token matching would miss the majority of valid variable references. The v2.4.1 release (2026-03-25) also fixed Gemini MAX_TOKENS errors and increased output limits from 2048 to 4096 tokens. The trajectory of FigmaLint releases shows increasing AI model integration with design system governance tooling.
