About this plugin

Maintain design system consistency and recover accidentally detached components.


Detached Instance Finder uses advanced logic to identify frames that were previously component instances but have lost their link to the main component.


🔍 Three-Tier Detection

  1. Verified Metadata: Uses Figma’s native info to confirm detours with 100% accuracy.
  2. Name Matching: Identifies frames whose names still match known library components.
  3. Structure Analysis: Compares layer hierarchies to find “ghost” components with high similarity.


🎯 Smart Recovery

  1. Instant Navigation: Click any result to jump directly to the detached frame.
  2. One-Click Re-attach: Swap a detached frame back to a fresh component instance instantly.
  3. Smart Scope: Scan your current page for quick fixes or the entire document for a full system audit.


đź”’ Privacy First

  1. Zero Network Access: Like the rest of this suite, all scanning happens locally in your client. No data is sent to external servers.
  2. Safe: Preview every match before taking action.
