# Turn Figma designs into code

> How do I give Cursor or Claude Code access to my Figma designs?

Pasting screenshots into a chat loses the structure a model needs. A Figma MCP server hands the agent the file's actual layout and styling data instead — and some can edit the design as well as read it.

## Recommended picks

### Best overall: Framelink MCP for Figma
- Open source · MCP server · 16k★ · TypeScript · MIT · active 5 days ago
- **Setup:** Config entry — npx + Figma token
- **Why:** The most-starred Figma server in the index. It trims Figma API responses down to the layout and styling a model needs, which its author reports implements designs more accurately than screenshots.

### Edit designs too: Talk to Figma MCP (Grab)
- Open source · MCP server · 7.0k★ · JavaScript · MIT · active 1 month ago
- **Setup:** Self-host — Bun + Figma plugin
- **Why:** Reads designs and changes them, through a Figma plugin and a local WebSocket bridge, so an agent can make bulk edits such as replacing text across a file.
- [listing](https://agentsearchengine.app/agents/talk-to-figma-mcp) · [official](https://www.figma.com/community/plugin/1485687494525374295/cursor-talk-to-figma-mcp-plugin)

### Design systems: Figma Console MCP
- Open source · MCP server · 2.4k★ · TypeScript · MIT · active 1 day ago
- **Setup:** Config entry — npx + Figma token
- **Why:** Built for design-system work: extraction, creation, debugging and two-way design-token sync, including mining tokens from an existing codebase.

## What to watch for
Output quality depends on how the Figma file is built: components, auto layout and named layers translate far better than loose, absolutely positioned frames. All three need a Figma access token, so scope it to the files involved, and treat generated code as a first draft to review rather than a finished screen.
