Built-in capabilities (16)
Tools for your AI Agents to operate Figma
Ask your AI agent "Show me my recently accessed Figma files." and get the answer without opening a single dashboard. With 16 tools connected to real Figma data, your agents reason over live information, cross-reference it with other MCP servers, and deliver insights you would spend hours assembling manually.
Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and any MCP-compatible client. Powered by the Vinkius - your credentials never touch the AI model, every request is auditable. Connect in under two minutes.
Why teams choose Vinkius
One subscription gives you access to thousands of MCP servers - and you can deploy your own to the Vinkius Edge. Your AI agents only access the data you authorize, with DLP that blocks sensitive information from ever reaching the model, kill switch for instant shutdown, and up to 60% token savings. Enterprise-grade infrastructure and security, zero maintenance.

Figma Alternative MCP Server capabilities
16 toolsEach reaction includes the emoji, the user who reacted and the creation date. Get reactions on a Figma comment
Each comment includes the message, author, creation date, position on canvas (client_meta) and resolved status. Use this to review feedback, design discussions and review threads. Get comments on a Figma file
Returns the component name, description, owning file and node ID. Get a published component by key
Returns the file name, version, nodes hierarchy, styles, components and component sets. The file key is found in the file URL: figma.com/file/<FILE_KEY>/<name>. Optionally set depth to limit how many levels of the node tree are returned. Use this to explore the full structure of a design file. Get a Figma file by key
Returns the node tree, styles and components for each requested node. Use this to inspect individual frames or components without loading the entire file. Node IDs can be found in the file URL when selecting a node or from the file document tree. Get specific nodes from a Figma file
Each version includes its ID, label, description, creation date, creator and whether it is the current version. Useful for tracking design changes and restoring previous versions. Get version history of a Figma file
Returns image URLs and the nodes they are applied to. Useful for cataloging all images used in a design. Get image fills used in a Figma file
Specify the node IDs and output format (png, jpg, svg, pdf). Optionally set scale (1x-4x) for raster formats. Returns URLs to the rendered images. Useful for exporting assets, thumbnails or previews from design files. Render Figma nodes as images
Each file includes its key, name, creation date, last modified date and version. Optionally set branch_data to "true" to include branch information. Get files in a Figma project
Returns file key, name, last modified date, thumbnail URL and associated project. Useful for quickly finding files you've been working on. Get recently accessed Figma files
Useful for understanding the structure of the team's design system libraries. Get published component sets for a Figma team
Each component includes its key, name, description, owning file and creation metadata. Useful for auditing the team's design system. Get published components for a Figma team
Each project has an ID, name and creation date. Use the team ID from the team URL or from get_user. Get projects in a Figma team
Returns user ID, email, handle, avatar URL and account type. Use this to verify your token is working correctly. Get the authenticated Figma user
Requires the file key and message text. Optionally set a position on the canvas using x/y coordinates to pin the comment to a specific location, or reply to an existing comment using comment_id. Post a comment on a Figma file
Provide the file key, comment ID and the emoji character (e.g. "👍", "❤️", "🔥"). Add a reaction to a Figma comment

How it works
1. Subscribe to this server
2. Enter your Figma Personal Access Token
3. Start exploring your designs from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
No more switching to the Figma app to check comments, find a file key or export an image. Your AI acts as a dedicated design ops assistant.
Who is this for?
- Designers — quickly find recent files, review comments and export assets without opening the Figma app
- Developers — inspect node properties, get component details and render images for implementation reference
- Design Ops — audit component libraries, track version history and manage team projects via conversation
Frequently asked questions about the Figma Alternative MCP Server
How do I create a Figma Personal Access Token?
Log in to Figma, click your profile icon > Settings > Personal access tokens, click Generate new token, give it a name and copy the token immediately — it starts with figd_ and won't be shown again.
How do I find a Figma file key?
The file key is the long alphanumeric string in the Figma URL. For example, in figma.com/file/abc123xyz/My-Design, the key is abc123xyz. You can also get recent files using the get_recent_files tool.
Can I export images from Figma designs?
Yes! Use get_images with the file key, node IDs and format (png, jpg, svg, pdf). You can set the scale (1x-4x) for raster formats. The API returns URLs to rendered images that you can download. Use get_file_nodes first to discover node IDs.
Can I read and reply to comments on a design?
Yes! Use get_comments to read all comments on a file, post_comment to add a new comment or reply (using comment_id), and post_comment_reaction to add emoji reactions. You can also pin comments to specific canvas positions using x/y coordinates.
