Figma MCP: Complete Guide
Briefly

Figma MCP (Model Context Protocol) bridges the gap between visual design and production-ready code by allowing AI code generators to comprehend design semantics. This open standard facilitates interaction between Figma and AI tools, enhancing workflows. While traditional methods like screenshots are functional, they lack semantic understanding that MCP offers. By using MCP, developers can ensure more accurate and contextually relevant code generation, allowing tools like Cursor to recognize design tokens and hierarchy, thus fostering a more effective design-to-code alignment and efficient production process.
MCP establishes a systematic bridge between design and production-ready code, enabling AI tools to understand design elements at a semantic level rather than just visually.
By utilizing MCP, developers can provide Cursor with Figma links, allowing for a deeper comprehension of design tokens, hierarchy, and constraints that standard image parsing cannot.
