Question

Cursor being able to create a version history before editing file

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
