We found 28 different shades of grey in production last week. Only five of them were actually in our Figma file. I am Alexander and I created a plugin to fix this exact mess.
The developers were doing their best to match the new dark mode screens. But every time a designer tweaked a background layer, someone had to manually update a JSON file in the repository. The drift was getting embarrassing.
I wanted the Figma file to actually drive the code. So I built a tool that pushes Figma variables directly to GitHub using automatic pull requests.
We completely archived our design handoff Slack channel last month. The repository updates itself with the exact W3C Token formats whenever we publish library changes.

How is your team handling multi-brand themes without manually copying tokens?
