According to Cursor, this feature API does exist but it’s not allowed. Until we fully trust and understand how AI tools can help us with our work, we need a way to revert back to our designs prior to having any AI tool update it. 

  • Client: Cursor + remote MCP (https://mcp.figma.com/mcp)
  • Tool: use_figma
  • API: figma.saveVersionHistoryAsync(title, description?)
  • Error: "saveVersionHistoryAsync" is not a supported API
  • Debug UUID from our attempt: 9e76fe30-de7b-4528-b50e-a337ac24dd14
  • Use case: named “before Cursor edits” checkpoints with the user prompt in the description
