Figma is empowering AI models with deeper access to its design ecosystem through significant updates to the Figma Model Context Protocol (MCP). The expanded MCP server now supports Figma Make, granting AI agents the ability to view and understand the underlying code powering prototypes. This advancement facilitates more accurate replication of apps built within Figma Make and strengthens integrations with AI-focused platforms like Anthropic, Cursor, Windsurf, and code editors like VS Code. By removing the requirement for local desktop app access, Figma is streamlining workflows and making its design tools more readily accessible to developers and AI-powered workflows.
