AI-Assisted Design System Documentation

Uber has developed uSpec, an agentic system that leverages AI agents and the Figma Console MCP to automate the generation of design system component specifications. This system connects an AI agent in Cursor to Figma, allowing it to crawl component structures, compile data with provided context, and generate spec pages directly within Figma files. This significantly reduces the time and effort required for documentation, improving accuracy, consistency, and maintainability across multiple implementations. The entire pipeline runs locally, ensuring data security.
