Figma's MCP product

Hi ​@Anuj Singh! Thanks for your post - happy to help clarify this for you since I can understand why you might want to use a custom client.

• Is there currently a supported process for a custom MCP client to connect?
  • As you’ve already discovered, only clients listed in the Figma MCP Catalog can connect to the remote MCP server (https://mcp.figma.com/mcp). We're being intentional about the integrations we support in the near term, and at the moment we've paused adding new MCP clients while we continue to build a strong and scalable foundation for all partners. If you'd like your client considered for a future addition, you can submit it here: MCP client request form. Real demand signal genuinely helps with prioritization.
• Is registration, approval, or a specific plan required?
  • ​​​​​​​There's no self-serve registration that grants instant access today. It's an approval process on our side, and not something you can complete yourself via a form. Having said that, if what you actually need is a private, internal-only client or gateway (used only inside your own org, not a public client), that's a bit different and only available on Organization and Enterprise plans.
• For a custom client requiring OAuth, should it use regular Figma OAuth App credentials or a different flow?
  • ​​​​​​​A standard Figma OAuth app client ID/secret on its own won't grant mcp:connect access - that scope is currently limited to catalog-approved clients. OAuth is the only supported authentication method for the remote MCP server (no personal access tokens or service accounts), but there isn't a generally available way for a customer to self-provision their own OAuth client for it today.

If your use case is actually more of an internal/private tool rather than a public client, then you’ll want to contact your Account Executive for more information. In the meantime, let me know if you have any other questions!
