Plumb is a tool that connects Figma designs to AI coding agents like Claude Code and Cursor. It reads your Figma files through a plugin, avoiding REST API rate limits and quotas. It also includes a verification feature that checks if the code your AI generates actually matches the original design.
Plumb (plumb-mcp) is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that bridges Figma designs and AI coding agents. Unlike official Figma Dev Mode MCP or Framelink, Plumb uses a desktop Figma plugin to read designs, bypassing REST API rate limits and plan-gated quotas. It works on every Figma plan, including Free. Plumb returns a compact, normalized design spec (PDS) instead of the massive JSON from Figma's API, reducing token usage dramatically. It also exports SVG icons and PNG images directly to disk. A standout feature is the verification loop: the `plumb_verify` MCP tool and `plumb-mcp verify` CLI drive headless Chrome to compare rendered code against the Figma design, producing color-coded diffs. This closes the loop on design-to-code accuracy. Plumb is built for Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, and any MCP-compatible agent. It solves common issues like token caps, rate limits, and layout hallucinations.

Convert Figma designs to production-ready code using AI coding agents without hitting API rate limits.
Verify that AI-generated UI code matches the original Figma design using automated visual diffing.
Extract design tokens and assets (SVG, PNG) from Figma for use in development workflows.
Integrate Figma design specs into CI/CD pipelines to catch design deviations early.
Enable free-tier Figma users to leverage AI coding agents with full design access.
The Figma plugin requires sideloading into the desktop app, which may be blocked by some IT policies.
The verification feature uses headless Chrome, which could be a security concern in restricted environments.
As with any MCP server, ensure you trust the source and review the code before granting file system access.
