Instructions

Implementation Reference

• src/talk_to_figma_mcp/tools/document-tools.ts:166-192 (registration)

  Registration and handler implementation of the 'get_local_components' MCP tool. The handler forwards the request to the Figma plugin using sendCommandToFigma and formats the response as text content.

  server.tool(
    "get_local_components",
    "Get all local components from the Figma document",
    {},
    async () => {
      try {
        const result = await sendCommandToFigma("get_local_components");
        return {
          content: [
            {
              type: "text",
              text: JSON.stringify(result)
            }
          ]
        };
      } catch (error) {
        return {
          content: [
            {
              type: "text",
              text: `Error getting local components: ${error instanceof Error ? error.message : String(error)}`,
            },
          ],
        };
      }
    }
  );

• src/talk_to_figma_mcp/tools/document-tools.ts:170-191 (handler)

  Inline handler function that executes the tool logic by calling sendCommandToFigma('get_local_components') and returning the result.

  async () => {
    try {
      const result = await sendCommandToFigma("get_local_components");
      return {
        content: [
          {
            type: "text",
            text: JSON.stringify(result)
          }
        ]
      };
    } catch (error) {
      return {
        content: [
          {
            type: "text",
            text: `Error getting local components: ${error instanceof Error ? error.message : String(error)}`,
          },
        ],
      };
    }
  }
