About Framelink MCP for Figma
Framelink MCP for Figma (the figma-developer-mcp package) fetches a Figma file, frame or group through the Figma API and trims the response to the layout and styling information a model needs; the author reports this one-shots designs more accurately than pasting screenshots. It was built with Cursor in mind and works with other MCP clients.
Framelink MCP for Figma is an open-source project written primarily in TypeScript, with 16k stars on GitHub. It was last updated in September 2026.
