listing.about

Connects AI agents such as Cursor, Claude Code and Codex to Figma. The agent can read documents, selections and nodes, create frames, text and rectangles, edit text in bulk, set auto layout, colors and corner radius, manage annotations and prototype connections, work with components and instance overrides, and export nodes as images.

Runs locally over stdio with bunx cursor-talk-to-figma-mcp@latest. It also needs a WebSocket relay started from the repository (bun socket) and the Talk to Figma plugin installed in Figma. The plugin joins a channel with join_channel. No API key or sign-in is required.

Claude Code

  1. Run this in a terminal, in your project folder:
claude mcp add --transport stdio talk-to-figma -- bunx cursor-talk-to-figma-mcp@latest
  1. Start Claude Code and type /mcp. talk-to-figma should show as connected.

Add --scope user to make it available in every project.

Claude Desktop

  1. Open Settings → Developer → Edit Config. It opens claude_desktop_config.json. Add:
claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "talk-to-figma": {
      "command": "bunx",
      "args": [
        "cursor-talk-to-figma-mcp@latest"
      ]
    }
  }
}
  1. Save the file and restart Claude Desktop.

The file lives in ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/ on macOS and %APPDATA%\Claude\ on Windows.

Cursor

Or add it by hand to ~/.cursor/mcp.json (all projects) or .cursor/mcp.json (this project):

mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "talk-to-figma": {
      "command": "bunx",
      "args": [
        "cursor-talk-to-figma-mcp@latest"
      ]
    }
  }
}

VS Code

Or from a terminal:

code --add-mcp '{"name":"talk-to-figma","type":"stdio","command":"bunx","args":["cursor-talk-to-figma-mcp@latest"]}'

Or commit it to the repo in .vscode/mcp.json:

.vscode/mcp.json
{
  "servers": {
    "talk-to-figma": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "bunx",
      "args": [
        "cursor-talk-to-figma-mcp@latest"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Devin Desktop

  1. Add it to ~/.config/devin/mcp_config.json (macOS and Linux) or %APPDATA%\devin\mcp_config.json (Windows):
mcp_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "talk-to-figma": {
      "command": "bunx",
      "args": [
        "cursor-talk-to-figma-mcp@latest"
      ]
    }
  }
}
  1. Refresh the MCP server list in Cascade.

Devin Desktop is the new name for Windsurf.

Codex

codex mcp add talk-to-figma -- bunx cursor-talk-to-figma-mcp@latest

Or edit ~/.codex/config.toml directly:

config.toml
[mcp_servers.talk-to-figma]
command = "bunx"
args = ["cursor-talk-to-figma-mcp@latest"]

Gemini CLI

gemini mcp add talk-to-figma bunx cursor-talk-to-figma-mcp@latest

This adds it to the current project. Add -s user to use it everywhere.

Any client

Most clients that start local servers accept this shape:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "talk-to-figma": {
      "command": "bunx",
      "args": [
        "cursor-talk-to-figma-mcp@latest"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Zed puts servers under context_servers in its settings, with the same command, args and env fields.

listing.faq

Can I paste mcp.tc/i/talk-to-figma into my MCP client?

No. Talk to Figma runs on your own computer, started by your client, so it has no web address to connect to. The quick link is the page to share; the install command is bunx cursor-talk-to-figma-mcp@latest.

Does Talk to Figma need an API key?

No. It doesn't declare any keys or environment variables. It runs with your user account's permissions, so check what its tools can reach.

Is Talk to Figma a remote or a local server?

Local. Your client starts it as a process on your computer with bunx cursor-talk-to-figma-mcp@latest.

What can Talk to Figma do?

You can read document info, selections and node details, create frames, sections, rectangles and text nodes and bulk replace text content across a design.

Which clients can use it?

Any client that starts local servers: Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, Devin Desktop, Codex, Gemini CLI, Zed and others. claude.ai and ChatGPT only connect to remote servers.

Who wrote this page?

mcp.tc's robot read Talk to Figma's public metadata (its package and repository pages), and an AI model drafted the text from it. A person reviews anything the checks can't confirm. The text can still be wrong, so if you spot a mistake, use Report this listing on this page.
