🚀 Figma MCP Server + Augment Code Integration

Easier option now available here: https://github.com/shedytee/Figma-MCP-Augment-Code-Guide-Local-HTTP-mode-/blob/main/README.md

This project shows how to connect a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server to the Figma API and integrate it with Augment Code to supercharge your development workflow.

✨ Features

✅ Builds an MCP server that:

• Queries Figma files
• Exposes Figma data to an MCP-compatible interface
• Integrates into Augment Code as a custom tool

✅ Uses:

• @modelcontextprotocol/sdk
• figma-js
• zod
• dotenv

📦 Setup Instructions

1. Clone the repository

   git clone https://github.com/shedytee/mcp-figma-augmentcode-integration.git
   cd mcp-figma-augmentcode-integration
   

2. Install dependencies

   Install the required NPM packages:

   npm install @modelcontextprotocol/sdk figma-js zod dotenv
   

3. Configure environment variables

   cp .env.example .env
   

   Fill in:

   • FIGMA_TOKEN → your Figma API token
   • FIGMA_FILE_ID → your Figma file ID
   • MCP_PORT → usually 3000

4. Update package.json

   In your package.json, add "type": "module" at the top level and a start:mcp script under "scripts":

   {
     "name": "mcp-figma-augmentcode-integration",
     "version": "1.0.0",
   + "type": "module",
     "scripts": {
       "start:mcp": "node figma-mcp-server.js"
     },
     "dependencies": {
       "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk": "^1.17.1",
       "figma-js": "^1.16.1-0",
       "zod": "^3.25.76",
       "dotenv": "^17.2.1"
     }
   }
   

5. Add startup log to figma-mcp-server.js

   Ensure your script ends with a console message so you see startup success. For example, after connecting:

   const transport = new StdioServerTransport();
   await server.connect(transport);
   + console.log(`MCP Server running on port ${MCP_PORT}`);
   

6. Run the MCP server

   npm run start:mcp
   

   You should see:

   MCP Server running on port 3000
   

⚙️ Connect to Augment Code

1. Open Augment Code → Workspace Settings → MCP

2. Add a new MCP server:

   • Name: figma
   • Command:

     node figma-mcp-server.js
     

     (runs from your workspace root)

3. Under Environment Variables, add:

   • FIGMA_TOKEN
   • FIGMA_FILE_ID
   • MCP_PORT

4. Save and toggle ON the “figma” server.
   Look for this in the logs:

   [dotenv@…] injecting env …
   MCP Server running on port 3000
   

   Once you see it, the icon will turn green.

💬 Example Prompts

See prompts.md for ready-to-use chat prompts. Examples:

• Ask figma to get the full file data.
• Use figma to fetch the latest file from the Figma API.
• Ask figma for details about the component named ButtonPrimary.
• Use the figma tool to show all components in the design file.

🗂 Example Code

This repo includes figma-mcp-server.js, a working example of the MCP server wired to the Figma API.

To run locally:

npm run start:mcp

⚠ Important Notes

🛡️ Directories with spaces

If your workspace path includes spaces (e.g. My Projects), wrap the command argument in quotes:

node "figma-mcp-server.js"

—or—
Move your project to a path without spaces to avoid quoting:

C:/Users/yourname/Dev/NoSpacesRepo/
