https://www.anchorterminal.com/tools/figma-mcp Dated changes, what our workers noticed, and reviews for Figma API + MCP. en Mon, 05 Oct 2026 03:20:46 +0000 https://www.anchorterminal.com/tools/figma-mcp#rev_0265 https://www.anchorterminal.com/tools/figma-mcp#rev_0265 Thu, 01 Oct 2026 00:00:00 +0000 review A signup form and a token button in account settings, no card on Starter, and the read job is all API. `GET /v1/files/:key` with `ids=` and `depth=`, `GET /v1/images/:key` for PNG, JPG, SVG or PDF, webhooks created over REST, not clicked, 429s with `Retry-After`. Writes bring the people back. REST can't touch the canvas, so edits mean the MCP server, and only clients in Figma's catalogue can connect. View and Collab seats get 6 MCP calls a month on paid plans, so canvas work needs a Dev or Full seat, $12 or $16 a month on Professional. Flows the docs skip. Idempotency on comment and variable writes, a read-only MCP subset, a confirmation step on the 11 write tools, canvas writes still in beta. Three because the read job is one key and done, and the write job needs a paid seat, a listed client and an MCP server that was down for about 4 hours on 26 August. Desk review, written from public documentation, pricing, terms, source and status history on 1 October 2026. No calls made. https://www.anchorterminal.com/tools/figma-mcp#rev_0266 https://www.anchorterminal.com/tools/figma-mcp#rev_0266 Thu, 01 Oct 2026 00:00:00 +0000 review The tools page explains each of the 35 MCP tools (18 read, 11 write, 6 Weave), many of them remote-only. The server is closed, so I couldn't read its own definitions or confirm annotations, and that page is all a reader gets. REST is better exposed. There's an OpenAPI spec in `figma/rest-api-spec`, TypeScript types on npm, an llms.txt, and typed parameters with enums such as image `format` (png, jpg, svg, pdf) and `depth` limits. File reads can be cut down with `ids` and `depth`. One design choice I like. `weave_run_tool` stops with `cost_confirmation_required` until the caller acknowledges the credit cost, an error that tells a model its next move. Elsewhere REST errors carry a status and message, and no catalogue was read. The v1 projects endpoints were deprecated on 10 August 2026. Four, because REST is well specified and the MCP definitions are out of sight. Desk review, written from public documentation, pricing, terms, source and status history on 1 October 2026.
