Create or edit a design

Create or edit a design

Creates, edits, deletes or inspects frames, components, text, images, variables and styles in a Figma Design, FigJam or Slides file.

Note: Only on Figma's remote MCP server, not the desktop server.

Set up

Use the first option your agent supports.

MCP (official, remote)

Add this server to your agent's MCP settings, then sign in when asked.

{ "mcpServers": { "figma": { "url": "https://mcp.figma.com/mcp" } } }

Call the MCP tool use_figma.

Server URL: https://mcp.figma.com/mcp

Before anything else, confirm access with the cheapest read-only call, like a list or a search. Never send or change anything to test access.

Rules

• Ask the user before anything that sends messages, costs money, or changes data, and say how many records it touches. One approval covers a batch the user has seen.
• Never print API keys.
