Implementation Reference

  • The 'rename_page' tool handler: registers the tool with MCP server, accepts pageId and name params, calls sendCommandToFigma('rename_page', ...), and returns a success/error response.
    // Rename Page Tool
    server.tool(
      "rename_page",
      "Rename an existing page in the Figma document",
      {
        pageId: z.string().describe("ID of the page to rename"),
        name: z.string().describe("New name for the page"),
      },
      async ({ pageId, name }) => {
        try {
          const result = await sendCommandToFigma("rename_page", { pageId, name });
          const typedResult = result as { id: string; name: string; oldName: string };
          return {
            content: [
              {
                type: "text",
                text: `Renamed page from "${typedResult.oldName}" to "${typedResult.name}"`,
              },
            ],
          };
        } catch (error) {
          return {
            content: [
              {
                type: "text",
                text: `Error renaming page: ${error instanceof Error ? error.message : String(error)}`,
              },
            ],
          };
        }
      }
    );

  • The tool is registered via server.tool('rename_page', ...) inside registerDocumentTools() function (line 11). The zod schema at lines 464-467 defines the input validation for pageId and name.
    // Rename Page Tool
    server.tool(
      "rename_page",
      "Rename an existing page in the Figma document",
      {
        pageId: z.string().describe("ID of the page to rename"),
        name: z.string().describe("New name for the page"),
      },
      async ({ pageId, name }) => {
        try {
          const result = await sendCommandToFigma("rename_page", { pageId, name });
          const typedResult = result as { id: string; name: string; oldName: string };
          return {
            content: [
              {
                type: "text",
                text: `Renamed page from "${typedResult.oldName}" to "${typedResult.name}"`,
              },
            ],
          };
        } catch (error) {
          return {
            content: [
              {
                type: "text",
                text: `Error renaming page: ${error instanceof Error ? error.message : String(error)}`,
              },
            ],
          };
        }
      }
    );
  • sendCommandToFigma() helper function that sends the command string over WebSocket to the Figma server. It constructs a request with the command type and params, and returns a promise.
    export function sendCommandToFigma(
      command: FigmaCommand,
      params: unknown = {},
      timeoutMs: number = 300000
    ): Promise<unknown> {
      return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
        // If not connected, try to connect first
        if (!ws || ws.readyState !== WebSocket.OPEN) {
          connectToFigma();
          reject(new Error("Not connected to Figma. Attempting to connect..."));
          return;
        }
    
        // Check if we need a channel for this command
        const requiresChannel = command !== "join";
        if (requiresChannel && !currentChannel) {
          reject(new Error("Must join a channel before sending commands"));
          return;
        }
    
        const id = uuidv4();
        const request = {
          id,
          type: command === "join" ? "join" : "message",
          ...(command === "join"
            ? { channel: (params as any).channel, sessionId: SESSION_ID }
            : { channel: currentChannel }),
          message: {
            id,
            command,
            params: {
              ...(params as any),
              commandId: id, // Include the command ID in params
            },
          },
        };
    
        // Set timeout for request
        const timeout = setTimeout(() => {
          if (pendingRequests.has(id)) {
            pendingRequests.delete(id);
            logger.error(`Request ${id} to Figma timed out after ${timeoutMs / 1000} seconds`);
            reject(new Error('Request to Figma timed out'));
          }
        }, timeoutMs);
    
        // Store the promise callbacks to resolve/reject later
        pendingRequests.set(id, {
          resolve,
          reject,
          timeout,
          lastActivity: Date.now()
        });
    
        // Send the request
        logger.info(`Sending command to Figma: ${command}`);
        logger.debug(`Request details: ${JSON.stringify(request)}`);
        ws.send(JSON.stringify(request));
      });
    }
Behavior2/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

No annotations are provided, and the description only states 'rename an existing page'. It does not disclose any side effects, permissions required, or whether the rename is destructive. The behavioral context is minimal.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness3/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Single sentence is concise but lacks additional context. It is front-loaded with the core action, but could be more informative without being verbose.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness2/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

Tool is simple (rename a page), but no output schema and minimal description. It fails to mention return values, confirmation, or that the rename happens in-place. Given the presence of many sibling tools, more context would be beneficial.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Input schema covers 100% of parameters with descriptions. The tool description adds no additional meaning beyond what the schema already provides, so baseline 3 is appropriate.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states the verb 'rename' and the resource 'existing page', which distinguishes it from sibling tools like create_page, delete_page, and rename_node (which targets nodes in general).

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines2/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

No guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives (e.g., rename_node for other node types). No prerequisites or conditions are mentioned, leaving the agent without context for proper selection.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
