get_reactions
Retrieve Figma prototyping reactions from multiple nodes to analyze user interactions and prepare data for creating connector lines in design workflows.
Instructions
Get Figma Prototyping Reactions from multiple nodes. CRITICAL: The output MUST be processed using the 'reaction_to_connector_strategy' prompt IMMEDIATELY to generate parameters for connector lines via the 'create_connections' tool.

Implementation Reference
- The handler function for the 'get_reactions' MCP tool. It sends the nodeIds to the Figma plugin via sendCommandToFigma and returns the reactions data with a follow-up prompt instruction.
async ({ nodeIds }) => { try { const result = await sendCommandToFigma("get_reactions", { nodeIds }); return { content: [ { type: "text", text: JSON.stringify(result) }, { type: "text", text: "IMPORTANT: You MUST now use the reaction data above and follow the `reaction_to_connector_strategy` prompt to prepare the parameters for the `create_connections` tool call. This is a required next step." } ], followUp: { type: "prompt", prompt: "reaction_to_connector_strategy", }, }; } catch (error) { return { content: [ { type: "text", text: `Error getting reactions: ${error instanceof Error ? error.message : String(error) }`, }, ], }; } } - src/talk_to_figma_mcp/server.ts:2339-2376 (registration)The registration of the 'get_reactions' tool using McpServer.tool() including name, description, input schema, and handler.
