+For automated releases, `figcd` is used. https://github.com/opral/parrot-figcd

+## Instructions
+
+Make sure that app-based MFA/TOTP is enabled for Figma, as it is necessary for publishing plugin releases.
+
+**Creating a Figma authentication token locally**
+
+```sh
+npx figcd auth
+```
+
+> Enter your Figma email
+
+> Enter your Figma password
+
+> Enter your Figma TOTP token
+
+**Copy and paste the Terminal output**
+
+Example:
+
+```sh
+FIGMA_WEB_AUTHN_TOKEN=%7B%2figtkn.123.authn.456%22%7D
+```
+
+**Configure the secret on GitHub**
+
+> Repo Settings > Security > Secrets and Variables > Actions > Environment secrets
+
+```sh
