Community Figma MCP server – Enable AI agents to create and edit Figma designs

Summary: The Community Figma MCP server is an open-source tool that connects AI agents with Figma design documents, allowing them to create, edit, and arrange designs. It overcomes the limitations of the official read-only MCP server by enabling full editing capabilities through any MCP-compatible client.

What it does

It acts as a bridge between AI agents and Figma, permitting AI to modify design files directly. Compatible with clients like ChatGPT and Claude Desktop, it supports tasks such as prototyping, arranging elements, and creating variants.

Who it's for

Designed for developers and designers who want AI-assisted editing within Figma using large language models.

Why it matters

It solves the problem of the official MCP server’s read-only restriction by enabling AI-driven design modifications.
