Question

Figma MCP slice export

I design my emails in Figma and then chop them up using slices. I created a Claude skill that automatically exports Figma elements to Klaviyo, specifically these slices. Everything is working well EXCEPT - slices for some reason do not include any Figma images elements. which means no background images, no logos, product images, nothing. If i export manually it works okay.
I noticed that if I export frames however, it works as intended but switching to frames is not an option for now.
Figma team, please fix MCP or API so that when exporting slices via Claude MCP it includes images as well.

Hey, ​@Domen Žepič! Thanks for your post. 

 

That’s an interesting use of the MCP - I can see why you’d want images included with your slices. Out of curiosity, are you using the figma_use skill? I’ve asked the team about support for images with the MCP, but thought it worth asking to make sure you’re using the skill so Claude can make the most of tools available. If I find out something of note I’ll reply back and let you know. 

 

Let me know if you have any other questions! Cheers.

Hi ​@Domen Žepič  - until Figma fixes image fills in MCP slice exports, one way around it is to skip slice layers. Export the whole email frame and do the cutting after the export. The frame export already has every background, logo and product shot in it.

That's how Carvr works. My co-founder and I built it because our agency was spending whole afternoons slicing emails. It has its own Claude connector.

You give Claude the Figma frame link and the brand, Claude's Figma connector exports the full frame, and Carvr finds the cuts, writes alt text and builds a native drag-and-drop template in Klaviyo.
 

Setup is here if you want to compare it with your skill: carvr.ai/docs/figma-klaviyo-mcp
