In my company, we have strict security policies, and I need to ensure compliance before using MCP. Specifically, I would like to understand where the server is initiated when the get_code_connect_map command is executed. Does it run on my local machine, or is it hosted on Figma's servers? Any clarification on this would be greatly appreciated!
Hi PolinaE, thanks for raising this!
I checked internally, and when you run the get_code_connect_map command, everything is processed locally on your machine.
That said, the tool does fetch some data from Figma’s servers, such as the Code Connect snippets you'd normally see in the Inspect panel within Dev Mode. It’s the same data you’d already access when using Figma.
To summarize:
✅ Runs locally
🔄 Fetches code data from Figma servers (same as Dev Mode Inspect panel)
🔐 No external server is started, and no code is hosted elsewhere
Hope this helps clarify things!
