## Best for
Design-system teams keeping Figma and code in step with an assistant's help.

## Avoid if
You need full capabilities from a web-based AI client; the remote and cloud modes are more limited than local mode.

## About Figma Console MCP
Figma Console MCP gives AI assistants access to Figma for extraction, creation, debugging and bidirectional design-token sync. Its local mode can also scan application codebases to inventory components, infer variants and mine de-facto styling into DTCG tokens. It runs through npx with a Figma access token, from a local build, or in read-only remote and cloud modes with different capabilities.

## Connect to an MCP client
Launch command from the project's README: `FIGMA_ACCESS_TOKEN=<your-token> npx -y figma-console-mcp@latest`
