MCP server + Figma plugin: your AI app builds editable designs, design systems and motion in Figma, then checks its own work. Runs locally, works on Figma's free plan.
View on GitHub ↗Let your AI agent read, design and animate in your Figma files.
One prompt in, real editable layers out: an agent builds a landing hero in Figma desktop.
Figxel is a local MCP server with a small Figma desktop plugin. With it, an AI app such as Claude, Cursor or VS Code can read, build and animate real designs in the file you have open, guided by skills that teach it to work like a designer.

Tested live on Windows; macOS has not been run live yet.
Temporary: 0.1.1 is waiting to be published to npm, where figxel-mcp@latest is still 0.1.0. Until then the Quickstart's first step runs setup from the v0.1.1 GitHub Release; the @latest entry in your AI app moves to 0.1.1 by itself once it is on npm.
- It works with the AI app you already use. Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex, Gemini CLI or any other app that runs local MCP servers, whatever model it runs. - It reads and writes your real Figma file. A plugin runs in Figma desktop, so the agent makes editable layers, components and variables in the file you have open. - The agent works like a designer. Its skills teach it to write a brief, compare directions and check every section it builds. For motion the tools enforce the process: a plan before the first keyframe, a passing check before the final render. - It is local and open source. The server runs on your machine and listens only on 127.0.0.1. MIT licensed.
