Integrates with Figma's API to interact with files, comments, components, and webhooks. That is what the figma mcp server brings to an AI assistant: the same capability, reachable through the Model Context Protocol rather than a separate app or dashboard.
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides integration with Figma's API, allowing you to interact with Figma files, comments, components, and more.
The server publishes 12 tools. What each one is for:
get_file — Get information about a Figma file json { "file_key": "string" }get_file_versions — Get version history of a file json { "file_key": "string" }get_file_components — Get components in a file json { "file_key": "string" }get_file_comments — Get comments from a file json { "file_key": "string" }post_comment — The post_comment tool exposed by this serverdelete_comment — Delete a comment from a file json { "file_key": "string", "comment_id": "string" }get_team_projects — Get projects for a team json { "team_id": "string" }get_project_files — Get files in a project json { "project_id": "string" }get_component_styles — The get_component_styles tool exposed by this servercreate_webhook — The create_webhook tool exposed by this serverget_webhooks — The get_webhooks tool exposed by this serverdelete_webhook — The delete_webhook tool exposed by this serverConfiguration is passed through the environment: FIGMA_ACCESS_TOKEN. Treat anything key-shaped as a real credential — scope it to the minimum the server needs, and rotate it if it ever lands in a shared config.
Installation goes through your MCP client rather than a global install: point it at @smithery/cli on npm and it is fetched when the client starts. The copy-paste blocks for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are further down this page.
Plenty of developer tooling servers cover similar ground. The differences that matter in practice are scope of access and how much setup stands between you and a working tool call. Figma's toolset — get_file, get_file_versions, get_file_components and 9 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by deepsuthar496; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
SyncDev reviews every entry in this directory against the project's own documentation before publishing, and revisits them as servers change.
