I figure to get in front - it's easy! (6)
I believe the answer is:
facile
'easy' is the definition.
(synonyms)
'i figure to get in front' is the wordplay.
'figure' becomes 'l' (I've seen this in other clues).
'to get in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'front' becomes 'face' (face is a kind of front).
'i'+'l'='il'
'il' going within 'face' is 'FACILE'.
'it's' is the link.
(Other definitions for facile that I've seen before include "Easily achieved but of little value" , "Oversimplified" , "Easy, simple" , "Too easily achieved, glib" , "Lacking depth, glibly superficial" .)
