Framelink MCP for Figma v0.12.0

Send a separate Figma personal access token with each HTTP request.

Before you upgrade to v0.12.0

3 to fix

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.

Action requiredSave images and vector assets from Figma to local project files.Affects: Clients relying on absolute paths being silently treated as relative paths.

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.

Action requiredAffects: Configurations with unsupported output-format values.Inferred

What changed in v0.12.0

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.

Install [email protected]; requires Node.js >=20.20.0 and Figma API credentials.

New things you can do

Images pasted from other files without `imageRef` can be rendered by `nodeId`; successful downloads report their resolved destination.

SECTION children retain positions, dimensions follow the parent layout axis, and flex layouts with fewer than 10 shape children retain structure instead of becoming one SVG.

Late progress notifications no longer arrive after completed fetch responses and crash strict stdio clients; missing-node errors give branch-key and supported-URL guidance.
