About
Figma MCP server and plugin: AI agents read and edit live Figma files, no Figma API token.
README
Canvashand is a Figma MCP server plus a Figma plugin. AI clients such as Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, VS Code, Gemini CLI and Windsurf use it to read and edit live Figma files.
This repository holds the listing README and manifests only. Canvashand is proprietary and its source code is not here.
What it does
- 102 MCP tools to read and edit Figma files.
- Several Figma files at once, with one agent per file.
- Change sessions with rollback, so you can undo what an agent changed.
- No Figma API token and no Dev seat. Figma's rate limits do not apply.
- App Store and Google Play screenshot sets made from your app's real screens.
Store screenshots
Canvashand builds store screenshot sets in Figma from your app's own screens, in five looks with a full or cropped phone. This set uses the Panorama look on Starward, a demo app. See every look at https://www.canvashand.com/#store-screenshots.
