As mentioned above, currently when using AI to generate design drafts, during the writing process, the AI provided me with the following feedback, and I hope it can be fixed.

@Jaycee Lewis Thanks for confirming this is a known limitation. Do you have an estimated timeline for when PingFang SC font writing support in Figma MCP might be available?

Hey ​@Lolita — Tom here, stepping in for ​@Jaycee Lewis today. Thanks for chiming in.

We aren’t able to access a scheduled update for PingFang SC font writing support through MCP at this time.

The good news is there's a supported way to get PingFang SC working with MCP today: Upload the font to your account, and Figma's servers (and therefore MCP and the agent) can use it. Steps are here, under: Add a font to Figma → Upload local fonts to use with MCP and Figma agent. Availability can depend on your plan, so that article is the best place to confirm the details for your account.

Please give that a try and let me know how it goes — I'll make sure your experience gets back to the product team. 🙏🏻
