I built a GitHub Action that blocks PRs when your Figma file is over budget
A developer has created a GitHub Action called Figcap that prevents pull requests from being merged if a Figma file exceeds budget constraints. The tool performs checks on design elements such as font pairs, frame nesting depth, and bitmap weight. This initiative aims to enhance design quality by catching issues before they escalate in cost post-launch.

That ratio comes from Boehm (1981) and has been replicated since. The problem is not that teams ignore design quality, it's that nothing blocks a merge when the design is already over budget. Figcap is a GitHub Action.
