Read Figma file or node layouts, styles, text, and component information in an MCP coding tool.
Good to know
Requires a Figma access token and access to the requested file; returns simplified design data, not generated application code.

Thanks. Marked useful.
Thanks. The report went to osfeed, and the line gets checked against the repository.
Give coding tools Figma layouts, styles, text, and image assets to help implement designs.
What you can do with Framelink MCP for Figma
Save images and vector assets from Figma to local project files.
Good to know
Supports PNG, SVG, and GIF; paths must resolve inside the configured image directory. Path containment is lexical and does not prevent symlink escapes.
Wrong?
Connect MCP clients to a Figma context server over HTTP.
Good to know
Uses stateless Streamable HTTP at /mcp or /sse; legacy SSE and persistent sessions are unsupported.
Wrong?
Embed Figma design extraction or MCP serving in a Node.js application.
Good to know
Uses exported extraction and server APIs; these 0.x APIs change across releases.
Wrong?
Fetch Figma design data from a shell and pipe YAML or JSON into other tools.
Good to know
Requires Figma credentials; accepts a URL or --file-key, optional --node-id and --depth; does not download image assets.
Wrong?
Retrieve Figma data and images through an HTTP proxy.
Good to know
MCP server supports --proxy or FIGMA_PROXY and standard HTTP_PROXY, HTTPS_PROXY, and NO_PROXY variables.
Wrong?
Inspect Boolean and text properties and conditional layers in Figma components.
Good to know
Covers BOOLEAN and TEXT properties; component definitions include hidden conditional layers, while instances show resolved visible state.
Wrong?
Read Figma text with bold, italic, links, strikethrough, and nested list structure preserved.
Good to know
Formatting is represented as Markdown; other inline differences use style references, so consumers must interpret them.
Wrong?
Show all 11
Access Figma through HTTP using a personal access token supplied per request.
Good to know
HTTP requests may provide a personal token or OAuth bearer token; absent request credentials use server credentials. Stdio and fetch need startup credentials.
Wrong?
Read Figma design context as a compact indented tree.
Good to know
Tree is a custom text format for model consumption; use --format=yaml or --format=json for standard parsers.
Wrong?
Read Figma grid rows, columns, gaps, and per-cell placement for implementation.
Good to know
Returns simplified grid context for coding tools; does not generate application code.
Wrong?
Before you upgrade Framelink MCP for Figma
Newest firstIf an MCP consumer parses YAML, set `--format=yaml` or `OUTPUT_FORMAT=yaml`; the default is now tree. `fetch` still defaults to YAML.
Read the evidence
Wrong?
Resolve node `template` references through top-level `elements`; accept inline style objects as well as style keys and allow missing node `type` and `name`. Text-layer and auto-generated names are omitted.
Read the evidence
Wrong?
Requested roots use contextual sizing with designed dimensions for reference; letter spacing and relative line height use `em`, and stroke alignment distinguishes inset, centered, and outside strokes.
Read the evidence
Wrong?
Show 12 older
Use relative `localPath` values or absolute paths inside `IMAGE_DIR`; outside absolute paths and Windows drive-letter paths on POSIX are now rejected. Remove a leading slash if a relative path was intended.
Read the evidence
Wrong?
Set `--format` and server `OUTPUT_FORMAT` only to `yaml`, `json`, or `tree`; invalid configured values now fail instead of silently falling back. Remove invalid environment values even when a CLI format is supplied.
Read the evidence
Wrong?
Replace the HTTP server factory argument with credentials and options: `startHttpServer(host, port, baseAuth, serverOptions)`.
Read the evidence
Wrong?
Without proxy settings, the server uses Node's default dispatcher. Set `--proxy=none` or `FIGMA_PROXY=none` to bypass environment proxies; 403 errors include response details and bypass guidance.
Read the evidence
Wrong?
Upgrade to Node.js 20.20.0 or newer before installing this release; `package.json` now declares `>=20.20.0`.
Read the evidence
Wrong?
Usage telemetry is enabled by default for server and `fetch` calls. Disable it with `--no-telemetry`, `FRAMELINK_TELEMETRY=off`, or `DO_NOT_TRACK=1`.
Read the evidence
Wrong?
Pass parsed flags to `getServerConfig(flags)`, then pass the returned configuration to `startServer(config)`; both functions previously took no arguments.
Read the evidence
Wrong?
Update output consumers for `componentProperties` changing from an array to a name/value object and property-reference `characters` becoming `text`.
Read the evidence
Wrong?
Set `--image-dir` or `IMAGE_DIR` to the intended base and pass relative `localPath` values; absolute paths no longer select arbitrary destinations. Use only letters, digits, underscores, dots, or hyphens in `filenameSuffix`.
Read the evidence
Wrong?
Replace `SSEClientTransport` with `StreamableHTTPClientTransport`; use POST at `/mcp` or `/sse`. Stop using `/messages`, GET/DELETE streams, and persistent `mcp-session-id` state.
Read the evidence
Wrong?
Call `getServerConfig()` without the old Boolean argument; await `simplifyRawFigmaObject` and `extractFromDesign`. Pass a server factory as the third argument to `startHttpServer`.
Read the evidence
Wrong?
Pass the host first: change `startHttpServer(port, server)` to `startHttpServer(host, port, server)`.

Framelink MCP for Figma release history 7
v0.13.2
with v0.13.0, v0.13.1
with v0.13.0, v0.13.1
Give coding tools Figma grid layouts with rows, columns, gaps, and cell placement intact.
Details
Grid layout output now preserves placement rather than flattening it. MCP output defaults to tree and shares repeated element bodies; fetch retains its YAML default, and serialized output omits text-layer and auto-generated names.
Also: Tree becomes the MCP default; repeated data is shared, HTTP accepts OAuth bearer tokens, SVGs report dimensions, and colors, blur, and text units are corrected.

Send a separate Figma personal access token with each HTTP request.
Details
HTTP requests accept X-Figma-Token without a globally configured credential. Tree output is opt-in, while image paths must resolve within the configured image directory and invalid output-format values fail validation.
Also: Experimental tree output, stricter image paths and format validation, recovered layout details, and a fix for late progress notifications.

with v0.8.1, v0.9.0, v0.10.0
Fetch simplified Figma design data directly from the command line for scripts and pipelines.
Details
The fetch subcommand accepts a Figma URL or file/node flags and prints YAML or JSON. This group also introduces proxy configuration and opt-out telemetry, and raises the package's declared minimum Node version to 20.20.0.
Also: Proxy support, Boolean and text component properties, corrected style collisions, startup fixes, default telemetry, and a newer Node requirement.

with v0.7.0, v0.7.1
with v0.7.0, v0.7.1
Keep receiving progress while large Figma designs and image downloads are processed.
Details
Tools send progress when clients provide a progress token; clients that reset timeouts on progress can keep long requests alive. HTTP now uses stateless Streamable HTTP, and image downloads resolve under --image-dir or IMAGE_DIR.
Also: Animated GIF downloads, configurable image destinations, SVG and layout fixes, and stateless HTTP connections.

Choose the network address on which the Figma HTTP server listens.
Details
The server accepts --host or FRAMELINK_HOST, retaining 127.0.0.1 as the default. FRAMELINK_PORT takes precedence over PORT, and the exported HTTP startup function now takes a host argument.
