Details
From the project READMEfigmanage
Manage your Figma workspace with your agent or terminal.
Find files, organize projects, review access, and manage teams and seats. Connect Figmanage to your AI assistant through MCP, or use the command-line tool yourself.
Try asking
- “Find the files I worked on this week.”
- “Move these files into the Archive project.”
- “Show who has access to this project.”
- “Which paid seats have been inactive for 30 days?”
- “Check what needs handing over before Jordan leaves.”
Figmanage uses your Figma permissions. Admin tasks need admin access.
Get started with your agent
You need Node.js 18+ and an agent that supports local MCP servers.
1. Add Figmanage. In Claude Code, run:
claude mcp add --transport stdio --scope user figmanage -- npx -y figmanage --mcp
Using Codex, Cursor, VS Code, or Claude Desktop? Generate your client config.
2. Sign in to Figma in Chrome, then ask your agent:
Set up Figmanage, then show my teams and recent files.
Your agent asks before reading your Chrome session. macOS may show a Keychain prompt. Your login is saved locally.
3. Give it a task. Start with one of the examples above.
Some features, such as comments and exports, also need a Figma Personal Access Token. Add it locally with npx -y figmanage login --pat-only, then reconnect MCP. Keep tokens out of chat. See account setup.
Use the terminal
npm install -g figmanage
figmanage login
figmanage navigate list-recent-files
Use figmanage --help to find commands, or figmanage doctor if setup needs attention.
For agents and scripts
Use MCP for tool discovery, or the CLI for automation:
figmanage schema
figmanage navigate list-recent-files --jsonl --no-input
- Readable by humans: terminal output stays easy to scan.
- Readable by scripts: choose
--jsonor--jsonl. With JSONL, require the final summary and check the exit code. - Check before changing:
--dry-runchecks inputs without sending requests. It does not check live permissions. - Follow progress: offboarding supports
--progress --jsonland MCP progress notifications when requested.
See the automation guide for output formats and the optional agent skill for workflow recipes.

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
