Description
At Figma:config 2026, Figma brought forth the need to create an asset similar to Design.md but discussed an asset that would include:
- Values: The raw values of variables
- Tokens: Shareable tokens that can be combined together
- Hypertokens: Collections of tokens that can be shared a single thing
- Components: Not just a collecction of tokens but an implementation
Looking at the anatomy of Design.md file we see a lot of the same. And I know it might be simple to implement a "organism" or "hypertoken" that collects tokens together as a single sharable thing.

Research direction
Start by reading the anatomy of Design.md and watching the linked Figma talk to understand the proposed distinction between values, tokens, hypertokens and components. The issue does not identify implementation files, tests, or concrete completion criteria, so the first step is to clarify the format and scope of the proposed concept.
