"Figma is launching some new updates that allow AI models to directly communicate with its app-building tool and access designs remotely. Figma's Model Context Protocol (MCP) server - a bridge that enables AI models to tap directly into the code behind prototypes and designs created using Figma's tools - has now been expanded to support the design platform's AI prompt-to-app coding tool, Figma Make."
"In simple terms, this means the MCP server can show AI models and agents exactly how an app was built in Figma Make, so it can be accurately recreated instead of guessing based on the visual design. Figma says the Make MCP server experience supports products from Anthropic, Cursor, Windsurf, and VS Code starting today, and that future updates will allow third-party MCP servers to connect with Figma Make."
Figma expanded its Model Context Protocol (MCP) server to support Figma Make, allowing AI models to access underlying code rather than images or rendered prototypes. The MCP server indexes code in Make files so platforms and agents can request specific parts of projects. AI coding agents, browser-based models, and integrated development environments can now access the MCP server remotely, removing the need for local desktop access. The Make MCP experience already supports Anthropic, Cursor, Windsurf, and VS Code, with plans to enable third-party MCP server connections. Upcoming features include a Design Snapshot converting Make snapshots into editable layers and an in-canvas AI editing feature under testing.
