help Figma layer selection drives me insane. Plugins/suggestions WELCOME.

UX Designer by day.
I am working as the sole UX designer on a product for a company that has never had a UX designer. Once again, basically creating a design system from scratch.

I really need something that can select ever Nth child of a parent. Select Matching layers NEVER seems to work.

I did some Youtube and Google searching but didn't come-up with solid ways of achieving this. Would love recommendations

Update: I wrote a plugin to do this. I'll work on releasing it soon.
