A Figma plugin and a local MCP server that let AI tools — Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Codex, anything that speaks the Model Context Protocol — read, edit, check and export the Figma file you have open. Everything runs on your computer: no API rate limits, no Figma token needed.
Derived from gethopp/figma-mcp-bridge (MIT). See CHANGELOG.md and NOTICE.md. Not affiliated with, endorsed or sponsored by Figma, Inc.
AI tool ──stdio──▶ MCP server (Node, 127.0.0.1:1995) ◀──WebSocket── Figma plugin ──Plugin API──▶ your open file
The plugin can only reach the file it is running in, and only while it is open. The server only listens on your own machine.
Requires Node 20+ and Figma desktop (recommended — see Limits).
/plugin marketplace add muradyf/layerbridge, then /plugin install layerbridge@layerbridgeclaude mcp add --transport stdio --scope user layerbridge -- npx -y layerbridge@latest
.mcpb file from the latest release.npx -y layerbridge@latest setup --client <name> prints the config. Add --write to write it for Cursor, Windsurf or Claude Desktop (it shows the diff and keeps a backup).npx -y layerbridge@latest setup. It prints a manifest path. In Figma desktop: Plugins → Development → Import plugin from manifest… → that path. For FigJam boards and Slides decks, also import the second manifest it prints (Figma won't let one plugin run in both Dev Mode and FigJam). Re-run setup after updating.Something not working? npx -y layerbridge@latest doctor checks Node, the port, the access token, connected files and the installed plugin.
The server also offers prompts — implement-design, audit-design, build-in-figma, sync-tokens, troubleshoot — and the Claude Code plugin adds skills for the same workflows plus asset export.
