Connect your AI assistant to Figma through MCP. Create designs, update layers, and manage components directly from Cursor. Real-time bidirectional sync between your code and Figma designs.
Cursor AI for Figma is the missing link between AI and design. It enables Cursor AI to read and modify Figma designs programmatically through natural language commands.
What You Can Do:
🎨 Design Automation
- Bulk update text content across hundreds of elements
- Propagate component overrides instantly
- Create and manage annotations with markdown support
- Convert prototype flows to visual connectors
🔧 Smart Operations
- Read design information and structure
- Create frames, rectangles, and text elements
- Modify layouts, colors, and styling
- Clone, move, resize, and delete nodes
- Export designs as images (PNG, JPG, SVG, PDF)
🤖 AI-Powered Workflows
- Use natural language to control Figma
- Automate repetitive design tasks
- Batch process design elements
- Real-time progress tracking
Key Features:
✅ Easy Setup - Deploy to cloud in 5 minutes or run locally
✅ Free Forever - Deploy on Render.com's free tier
✅ Real-time Updates - WebSocket-based communication
✅ 40+ MCP Tools** - Comprehensive Figma API coverage
✅ Open Source** - MIT licensed, community-driven
✅ Cloud Ready - Access from anywhere with deployment guides
Perfect For:
- Design teams automating repetitive tasks
- Developers building design systems
- Product managers updating mockups
- Anyone tired of manual Figma updates
How It Works:
1. Deploy WebSocket server (5 min cloud setup)
2. Install Figma plugin from community
3. Install MCP server in Cursor
4. Start automating with AI!
Tech Stack:
Built with TypeScript, Model Context Protocol SDK, WebSocket (ws), and Bun runtime. Works seamlessly with Cursor AI editor.
Wow, this looks amazing! Love the idea of using Cursor for Figma design. How does the component management work with existing design systems?
When a team compares your approach to the emerging first‑party Figma MCP options and “context-only” Figma-to-code MCP servers, what are the one or two decisive differences that consistently make users choose (or switch to) your bidirectional editing workflow?
This looks super powerful. Can users restrict the AI to certain frames, pages, or components to avoid unintended changes elsewhere?
This has been a heavily requested feature for prototyping within Zentrik.
Let's talk one day. We'd love to look at integration opportunities.
Congrats on the launch! Love the natural language design automation in Figma.
