figma_read

MCP tool from Reqwise Figma MCP by hoangpm96

Read the canvas via an op enum (getdocumentinfo, getselection, readselection, getdesigncontext, getdesignsystemkit, generatedesignmd, searchnodes, screenshot, layoutaudit, ...) with token-frugal responses.

How to use it

Project documentation lists figma_read for the Reqwise Figma MCP MCP server. Add the server to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf and others), then check which tools your installed version makes available. Tool availability can depend on configuration and credentials. A server handshake does not verify this tool’s behavior. See the full listing for setup details.

Install Reqwise Figma MCP

$claude mcp add reqwise-figma -- node /absolute/path/to/reqwise-figma-mcp/dist/server/index.js
