Figma's official remote MCP: hands components, variables and layout from your designs to the agent to generate code, and can create and edit designs on the canvas. Needs Figma sign-in; Starter plans and View or Collab seats get only 6 read calls a month.

Helps agents build frontends that don't look templated: picks a design direction first, then tunes layout variance, motion intensity and information density. Also includes redesign audits, minimalist and brutalist styles, and design reference generation.

Official MCP for the open-source design tool Penpot: through the Penpot plugin API, agents can query, modify and generate designs, supporting design-to-code and code-to-design. Run npx -y @penpot/mcp@latest first and load the MCP plugin in Penpot to connect.

Plugin for design teams: design critiques, design system audits, UX copy, accessibility checks, user research synthesis and developer handoff notes. Official from Anthropic; works best with Figma connected.

Have an agent produce high-fidelity clickable prototypes, editable slides, timeline animations (exportable to MP4/GIF) and infographics in HTML from one sentence. Proposes three design directions first and includes a five-dimension design review. By Huashu, MIT licensed.

Simplifies Figma designs into layout and style data for coding agents, so UIs built from the design are more accurate than working from screenshots. Requires a Figma personal access token.

Companion skills for Google Stitch: generate UIs from text or images, extract DESIGN.md from code, and turn designs into React or React Native components. From Google Labs but not an officially supported Google product; set up the Stitch MCP first.

OpenAI's official Codex plugin that turns early product ideas, live pages or screenshots into interactive prototypes, proposing a few visual directions before building. Also reviews user flows, researches user pain points and checks accessibility issues.

MagicPath's official Codex plugin from OpenAI's plugin marketplace: search and install UI components from MagicPath canvases, apply team themes, and move interfaces from local code onto the canvas to keep iterating. Needs a MagicPath account and Node.js.

Figma's Codex plugin in OpenAI's official marketplace: implements UI from designs, generates Code Connect mappings, and creates or updates pages, component libraries, FigJam diagrams and slides in Figma. Needs a connected Figma account.

Uses a Figma plugin and a local WebSocket server so agents can read and directly edit designs: create frames and text, adjust auto layout and styles, and replace copy in bulk. Requires Bun; now maintained by Grab.

Open-source AI-native vector design tool with an MCP server built into its desktop app, connectable to Claude Code or Codex in one click. Agents read and edit .op designs in natural language, apply style guides and export React, Vue, Flutter or SwiftUI code. Needs the desktop app.

Reads any website's design system in a headless browser and exports DTCG design tokens, Tailwind config, Figma variables and a brand guide in one command, scoring contrast and cross-page consistency. Also an MCP server or Claude Code plugin. Needs Node.js and Chromium or Chrome.

Lets agents read and write Figma: extract variables, components and styles, create and edit screens, FigJam boards and slides on the canvas, and run accessibility checks and design-system audits. Needs a Figma personal access token, the Figma desktop app, Node.js and the companion plugin.

Turns Figma designs into production code in your project, using the design screenshot as the visual target and reusing existing components, design tokens and Code Connect mappings first. Maintained by Figma; needs the Figma MCP server (free plans get only 6 calls a month).

Figma's official plugin: connects the remote Figma MCP server and bundles skills for design-to-code, Code Connect, and generating designs and libraries, letting agents read design context and write to the canvas. Needs a Figma account; Starter plans and View/Collab seats get 6 calls a month.

Figma's official skill collection: implement designs as code, map components with Code Connect, generate design-system libraries from code, and build screens and FigJam diagrams on the canvas. Needs the Figma MCP server; canvas writes are in beta and currently free.

Figma's official skill that teaches agents to run Plugin API scripts via use_figma, creating and editing nodes, components, variables and auto layout directly on the canvas. Load it before any use_figma call. Needs a Figma account and the remote MCP server.

Builds editable Figma designs on the canvas from screens, modals or sidebars in your code, or from a text description, reusing components and variables from the file's published design system first. Maintained by Figma; needs the remote Figma MCP server and the figma-use skill.

Breaks reference UIs you like (screenshots, images or URLs) into a structured design DNA JSON covering design tokens, overall style and visual effects, then builds new pages from your content in that style. Installing needs Node.js; no API key required.

Figma's official CLI that links Figma design-system components to real components in your code, so Dev Mode and the Figma MCP show production snippets instead of generated examples. Needs Node.js 18+, a Figma Organization or Enterprise plan, a full Design or Dev Mode seat and an access token.

Free two-way Figma MCP that needs no paid Dev Mode seat: turns designs into code that fits your existing project, or builds pages and components on the canvas from a description, with data staying on your machine. Needs Node.js 20.19+, the Figma desktop app and the companion plugin.

Lets coding agents read your codebase, extract a design system, then generate UI mockups, slide decks, posters and other marketing visuals on Superdesign's infinite canvas and iterate in branches. Needs @superdesign/cli and a Superdesign account; free to start.

Lets Claude Code, Cursor and others read and edit Figma designs via a plugin bridge: batch-change colors and fonts, check contrast, generate component code. Free Figma accounts work. Needs Node.js, Figma Desktop, the local WebSocket server running and the plugin imported.
