Let your coding agent design in your open Figma file
Crossfade connects your coding agent to the Figma Design, FigJam or Slides file you have open. Select a layer and ask: it builds with your components and design system, checks its own screenshot, and leaves dev handoff notes on the layers. Unlike Figma's MCP server: • No call limits, on any plan • No Full seat needed to write • Fonts on your Mac just work • Images placed in the same run • $19 once, no usage fees Private by design: no Crossfade server, and the bridge answers only your agent.
Hi Product Hunt, I'm Sabarish, a product designer.
I built Crossfade because I use Claude Code to build screens in Figma every day, and I kept hitting Figma's MCP read limits part way through a task. An agent that checks its own work reads a lot, and on a View or Collab seat you get 20 calls a month.
Crossfade is a plugin for Figma design that runs on your Mac. Your agent talks to it over localhost, so nothing is counted. Select a layer, ask, and it builds real, editable layers: frames, auto layout, components, your own fonts and images. It takes a screenshot to check its work, and every run is a single undo step.
A few honest notes. Figma's own MCP server does things Crossfade doesn't, like Code Connect, and you can keep both. It's built and tested on Claude Code; Codex and Cursor connect the same way. It needs the Figma desktop app open, and it works in Figma Design, FigJam and Slides.
It's $19 once, and one license covers two machines. I'd love to hear what you'd ask your agent to build first, and what gets in your way.
