Bidirectional Figma MCP — AI draws UI on Figma canvas, reads designs back
Figma MCP server exists for a simple reason — assistants are far more useful when they can act on Figma directly instead of describing what you should do. Bidirectional Figma MCP — AI draws UI on Figma canvas, reads designs back.

The server ships on npm as figma-ui-mcp, 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.
Once Figma is connected, these are the calls the assistant has available:
Security — The Security tool exposed by this serverComponents — The Components tool exposed by this serverThis sits in the developer tooling group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up. Figma's toolset — Security, Components — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by TranHoaiHung; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
