Figma MCP
Official Figma remote MCP server — give Claude read access to your Figma files for design-to-code, brand-kit lookups, and Dev Mode context.
// Add to your client
claude mcp add --transport http figma https://mcp.figma.com/mcp
# Then run `/mcp` and authenticate via the browser when prompted.
# For user-wide install: add `--scope user` before `--transport`.Paste into your client's MCP configuration file.

"Read the homepage frame from this Figma file: <paste-figma-url>. Tell me the primary color, body font, and headline font so I can match them."
- ! Auth is OAuth via the Figma site, not a personal access token — the workflow's `FIGMA_TOKEN` env var pattern does not apply to the official server
- ! The remote endpoint requires the client to be on Figma's MCP catalog — not every MCP client can connect
- ! There is no `npx -y @figma/mcp` package; do not paste that command from older guides — it does not exist
- ! Dev Mode features (full frame inspection, code suggestions) require a Dev Mode seat on the Figma file
API key or simple config
MCP server itself is free. You need a Figma account; Dev Mode features and per-seat limits follow Figma's standard pricing.
// About
Plain English
If you already use Figma for design, this lets Claude read your Figma files directly. Ask things like 'make my landing page look like the homepage frame in this Figma file' and Claude can actually see what's there — colors, fonts, spacing — instead of guessing. It connects through Figma's hosted server, so there's nothing to install on your machine.
Figma's official MCP server is hosted at `https://mcp.figma.com/mcp` and connects via HTTP transport with OAuth authentication — no npm package, no local install. Once connected, Claude can read frames, components, variables, and design tokens from any Figma file you have access to.
Use it for design-to-code generation, pulling brand assets (colors, fonts, logos) into other tools, and grounding AI code generation in real design specs instead of guesses.
There is also a desktop server option (built into the Figma desktop app's Dev Mode) for organizations that need files to stay local.
