Figma API + MCP vs UX Pilot MCP server

Figma API + MCP 64

Statuspage at status.figma.com with history, read from its Atom feed (20). From 3 August to 1 November the feed posts four incidents. The 27 September "Service disruption" ("Figma Services are degraded or unavailable because of failures with AWS and other dependencies", 01:04 to 02:32 UTC) hit every service and reads as a major. The 26 August "Figma MCP Disruption" (10:14 to about 14:03 UTC) kept "some Codex and ChatGPT users" from seeing MCP tools, so it's partial and minor. The 13 October Figma agent and Make errors and the 30 October Sites publishing problem don't touch the REST API or the MCP server. The 27 July file-editing incident left the window. One major (10). Published limits for REST by tier, seat and plan, and for MCP by seat (Full and Dev up to 200 calls a day and 10 a minute on Professional, 15 on Organization, 600 a day and 20 a minute on Enterprise; View and Collab 20 a month on every plan) (15). REST 429s carry Retry-After, X-Figma-Plan-Tier and X-Figma-Rate-Limit-Type. No idempotency guidance for comment or variable writes (12 of 15). No SLA found on the developer pages (0). REST is GA, and writing to the canvas is still "free during the beta period" on the MCP introduction (7 of 10).

UX Pilot MCP server 15

No status page found (0). No history (5). No limits found (0). No retry guidance (0). No SLA (0). Not labelled beta (10). 0 + 5 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 10 = 15.

Closed service. The terms sit on www.figma.com, whose robots.txt disallows our crawler; held at 15 as whatsapp-cloud-api's licence line was with its terms unread (15). The privacy policy and sub-processor list read on 1 October are on the same host and are struck. The help centre's content-training article says training is on by default for Starter and Professional teams and off for Organization and Enterprise, that third-party model providers must delete inputs and outputs after processing, and that Figma upholds its data processing agreements, but it gives no retention period and has no second readable document to agree with (12 of 30). Dated deprecation notices on the developer changelog, such as the v1 projects endpoints on 10 August 2026, but no removal dates (13 of 20). The help article links a sub-processor list for Figma AI that we can't read and mentions data residency commitments without naming locations (5 of 20).

UX Pilot MCP server 22

Terms and privacy render with script and weren't readable (0). Data handling not read (0). A tool that maps old tool names to new calls eased the 3.0 change, no dates (5 of 20). Subprocessors not found (0). 0 + 0 + 5 + 0 = 5.

Figma API + MCP 86

Public OpenAPI spec in figma/rest-api-spec, with TypeScript types on npm (25). llms.txt at developers.figma.com (10). The MCP tools page explains each tool and splits read, write and Weave groups, but the server is closed, so we couldn't read its own tool definitions (13 of 20). Typed parameters with enums such as image format (png, jpg, svg, pdf) and depth limits (13 of 15). Reference examples throughout. We didn't read an error catalogue (10 of 15). A dated REST changelog with deprecation notices and v1 and v2 paths (15).

UX Pilot MCP server 45

Schemas not read without sign-in (15 of 25). No llms.txt read (0). Tools grouped by job (find, organise, delete, import, review, React), with a help tool that maps old names to new calls (14 of 20). Inputs not verifiable (5 of 15). A tool that returns any action's fields with an example (8 of 15). Registry 3.0.0 on 4 November; no changelog (3 of 15). 15 + 0 + 14 + 5 + 8 + 3 = 45.

Figma API + MCP 84

REST changelog entry on 22 October 2026 (Teams, folder creation, file duplication and invite endpoints for Enterprise) (30). REST changelog entries on 10 August, 17 September and 22 October (20). Closed service with a public changelog and support. We didn't test support (12 of 15). com.figma.mcp/mcp is in the official registry under a DNS-verified namespace, latest 1.0.3 (15). @figma/rest-api-spec and Code Connect are maintained on npm. We didn't audit their dependencies (7 of 10).

UX Pilot MCP server 45

Registry 3.0.0 and repository on 4 November 2026 (30). Dated releases not found (0). Issues not read (0). Official registry entry ai.uxpilot/uxpilot (15). README-only repository (0). 30 + 0 + 0 + 15 + 0 = 45. Registry presence read from Anchor Terminal's own daily import of the official MCP registry (/api/v1/registry.json, 6 November 2026), not the registry's API.

OAuth 2 with per-resource scopes such as file_content:read and file_comments:write (the 22 October Teams endpoints add teams:write, folders:write and team_members:write), scoped personal access tokens, and plan access tokens with resource allowlists and expiry of up to a year. The MCP server signs in with OAuth and only catalogue-listed clients can connect (30). Read-only scopes give least privilege on REST. The MCP server has no documented read-only mode, and canvas writes such as use_figma run without a confirmation step (13 of 20). File content, layer names and comments written by collaborators reach the model as they are, and we found no prompt-injection guidance (3 of 15). Activity logs and an AI usage API for Enterprise (12 of 15). Figma runs a bug bounty programme on HackerOne (hackerone.com/figma, "Figma - Bug Bounty Program"). www.figma.com's robots.txt disallows our crawler on every path, so the security page's certifications read on 1 October are struck and security.txt stays unread. Graded as meta-marketing-api's 13 (bounty route confirmed elsewhere, the vendor's own security pages unread) (13 of 20).

UX Pilot MCP server 39

OAuth or a bearer key; scopes not published (20 of 30). Organise tools never delete, and deletes need confirmation (14 of 20). Imported AI output and comments are third-party text; no injection guidance (3 of 15). No audit log (0). No security programme found (2 of 20). 20 + 14 + 3 + 0 + 2 = 39.

Figma API + MCP 60

REST file reads can be cut down with ids and depth. The MCP server lists 41 tools (18 read, 14 write, 9 Weave; 35 on 1 October), with some remote-only and others desktop-only, and we found no toolsets or read-only subset (15 of 25). Cursor pagination on comments, versions and folders (16 of 20). REST errors carry a status and message (13 of 20). We couldn't confirm readOnlyHint or destructiveHint on the closed MCP server, and REST writes have no idempotency keys. weave_run_tool stops with cost_confirmation_required until the caller acknowledges the credit cost (8 of 20). TypeScript types for REST and the Code Connect CLI, but no official REST client in two languages (8 of 15).

UX Pilot MCP server 46

Tool count not published; grouped actions (10). Search by keyword and list calls (10 of 20). No documented errors (3 of 20). 'Nothing is deleted' by the organise tools, and deletes run only once the user confirms (15 of 20). OAuth or a key, no SDKs (8 of 15). 10 + 10 + 3 + 15 + 8 = 46.
