Implementation Reference
- src/talk_to_figma_mcp/server.ts:831-872 (handler)MCP tool registration, schema definition, and handler implementation for 'export_node_as_image'. The handler sends the export request to the Figma plugin, receives image data, and returns it as MCP image content. Input schema validates nodeId (required), format (optional: PNG/JPG/SVG/PDF), scale (optional positive number).server.tool( "export_node_as_image", "Export a node as an image from Figma", { nodeId: z.string().describe("The ID of the node to export"), format: z .enum(["PNG", "JPG", "SVG", "PDF"]) .optional() .describe("Export format"), scale: z.number().positive().optional().describe("Export scale"), }, async ({ nodeId, format, scale }) => { try { const result = await sendCommandToFigma("export_node_as_image", { nodeId, format: format || "PNG", scale: scale || 1, }); const typedResult = result as { imageData: string; mimeType: string }; return { content: [ { type: "image", data: typedResult.imageData, mimeType: typedResult.mimeType || "image/png", }, ], }; } catch (error) { return { content: [ { type: "text", text: `Error exporting node as image: ${error instanceof Error ? error.message : String(error) }`, }, ], }; } } );
