I have been using the Figma MCP server for about a month, but last week I started getting some warnings in Cursor saying that the MCP server is not connecting. I have attached some documentation provided by Cursor when I asked the agent to trouble shoot.
I have already tried several times to restart both Figma and Cursor, and have made sure my Figma files have MCPs enabled.
Question
MCP Server is not connecting with Cursor
Hi
I understand you're seeing a connection error with the MCP client (Cursor), even though it had been working fine for about a month.
Thanks for confirming that you've already enabled the MCP server and tried restarting both Cursor and Figma.
It sounds like your setup was working previously, but you’re now encountering an error when prompting Cursor, Is that correct?
