Frequently asked questions

How do I install Figma MCP Server?

Add it to your MCP client's config with the command `npx -y figma-developer-mcp --stdio`, or paste the ready-made JSON block above into Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code or Windsurf. Claude Code users can run `claude mcp add figma` instead. Restart the client and the tools appear in the next session.

Does Figma MCP Server need an API key?

No credential is recorded for this listing, which usually means it runs against something local or public rather than an authenticated API. Check the repository's README before assuming, and if you find otherwise, tell us and we will correct the listing.

Which clients work with Figma MCP Server?

Any MCP client. Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code with Copilot, Windsurf, Zed, Cline and Continue all speak the Model Context Protocol, so a server written once works in all of them — only the location of the config file differs.

Is Figma MCP Server free?

The server itself is free and open source, and you run it yourself. It is published by the vendor of the system it connects to, so that service's own pricing applies to whatever it reaches.
