This one has been quiet for a while

Quiet is not dead — but it is worth knowing when it wakes up, or when someone else takes it over. We watch the repository and tell you either way.

Connect this server

This server runs on your own machine — install it with the package manager and the client starts it for you. Package name taken from the official registry entry.

Claude Code Claude Desktop Codex Cursor VS Code

run in your terminal

claude mcp add figma-designer -- npx -y figma-designer-mcp

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: FIGMA_TOKEN (Figma Personal Access Token), FIGMA_BRIDGE_PORT (WebSocket bridge port (default: 3055)). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Figma Designer — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Figma Designer?

Figma Designer runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the npm package figma-designer-mcp.

Is Figma Designer still maintained?

The linked repository no longer exists on GitHub — it was deleted or made private. We show this because it changes what you can expect: an unmaintained server may keep answering for months and then stop without warning.

How do I connect Figma Designer?

Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls figma-designer-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
