Which integrations are available for this server?

Provides full read/write access to Figma files via a plugin bridge, enabling creation and modification of design elements (frames, shapes, text, components), management of design systems (styles, variables, component libraries), prototype interactions, and export capabilities including screenshots, PDFs, and design tokens (JSON/CSS).

Figma MCP — Free, No Rate Limits

Open-source Figma MCP server with full read/write access via plugin — no REST API, no rate limits. Turn text into designs and designs into real code. Works with Cursor, Claude, GitHub Copilot, and any MCP-compatible AI tool.

Highlights

No Figma API token required
No rate limits — free plan friendly
Read and Write live Figma data via plugin bridge — 58 tools total
Full design automation — styles, variables, components, prototypes, and content
Design strategies included — read_design_strategy, design_strategy, and more prompts built in

Why this exists

Most Figma MCP servers rely on the Figma REST API.

That sounds fine… until you hit this:

Plan	Limit
Starter / View / Collab	6 tool calls/month
Pro / Org (Dev seat)	200 tool calls/day
Enterprise	600 tool calls/day

If you're experimenting with AI tools, you'll burn through that in minutes.

I didn't have enough money to pay for higher limits. So I built something that doesn't use the API at all.

Installation & Setup

Install via npx — no build step required. Watch the setup video or follow the steps below.

1. Configure your AI tool

Claude Code CLI

claude mcp add -s project figma-mcp-go -- npx -y @vkhanhqui/figma-mcp-go@latest

.mcp.json (Claude and other MCP-compatible tools)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "figma-mcp-go": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@vkhanhqui/figma-mcp-go"]
    }
  }
}

.vscode/mcp.json (Cursor / VS Code / GitHub Copilot)

{
  "servers": {
    "figma-mcp-go": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@vkhanhqui/figma-mcp-go"
      ]
    }
  }
}

2. Install the Figma plugin

In Figma Desktop: Plugins → Development → Import plugin from manifest
Select manifest.json from the plugin.zip
Run the plugin inside any Figma file
