Figwright

Figwright is a free, two-way Figma MCP server that lets coding agents read designs and edit the canvas directly.

Figwright connects an MCP server to a Figma plugin over a local WebSocket relay so AI agents like Claude Code or Cursor can work directly with Figma files. It supports both reading selections into framework-aware code and writing changes straight to the canvas. Everything runs locally on your machine, ensuring your designs are never sent anywhere else. The server exposes 117 tools covering inspection, variables, styles, components, and animations. It is designed for developers who want to integrate AI coding agents into their design and implementation workflows without paying for a Dev Mode seat.
