## Definition

**Figma MCP** — a Model Context Protocol server maintained by Figma that lets AI agents connect to Figma's design data, including via the Figma desktop app.

**Figma MCP** is the Model Context Protocol server Figma ships for connecting external AI tools to Figma design data, including the desktop app. In the channel's captured material it appears in _The SaaS Apocalypse Is a Goldmine With Figma's Matt Colyer_: a Figma engineer who leads the MCP server explains how the company runs its own **agents on top of Figma MCP** as a dogfooding practice — **every build is tested against the agent** — so the tool stays production-ready for developers exploring AI workflows on Figma's design data [^9accf9e7-440d-50c7-adf8-72cf354caffa@0]. For newcomers: **MCP (Model Context Protocol)** is a standard way to expose an application's data and actions to AI agents. As used here, Figma MCP turns Figma's design context into something agents can read and act on. Use these takeaways to understand why Figma invests in it:
