What the server does

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for interacting with the Figma API, featuring memory-efficient chunking and pagination capabilities for handling large Figma files.

This MCP server provides a robust interface to the Figma API with built-in memory management features. It's designed to handle large Figma files efficiently by breaking down operations into manageable chunks and implementing pagination where necessary.

  • Memory-aware processing with configurable limits
  • Chunked data retrieval for large files
  • Pagination support for all listing operations
  • Node type filtering
  • Progress tracking
  • Configurable chunk sizes

Available tools

The toolset is worth reading before you wire it up, because it tells you what the integration is really for:

  • list_files — The list_files tool exposed by this server
  • get_file_versions — The get_file_versions tool exposed by this server
  • get_file_comments — The get_file_comments tool exposed by this server
  • get_file_info — The get_file_info tool exposed by this server
  • get_components — The get_components tool exposed by this server
  • get_styles — The get_styles tool exposed by this server
  • get_file_nodes — The get_file_nodes tool exposed by this server

Credentials and setup notes

Configuration is passed through the environment: FIGMA_ACCESS_TOKEN, DEBUG. 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

The server ships on npm as @smithery/cli, so your MCP client can launch it on demand — there is no separate build step. Add the server block to your client's configuration, restart it, and the tools register themselves.

Where it fits

Plenty of knowledge and memory 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 MCP Chunked's toolset — list_files, get_file_versions, get_file_comments and 4 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by ArchimedesCrypto; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

We check each listing at SyncDev against the project's documentation before it goes live — if something here drifts out of date, it is a bug worth reporting.

Worth knowing first

  • It runs with your machine's permissions. That is convenient and also the reason to think about what you point it at before you approve a tool call.
  • Missing credentials fail quietly in some clients — if no tools show up, check the environment block first.
  • Keep per-call confirmation enabled while you learn its behaviour; it is the cheapest safeguard you have.
