Request: Through the Figma MCP, access contents of comments made in Figma Design file.

Reason: Can provide context for designs, review bugs, etc.

Current response from OpenAI Codex with direct link to comment:

No, not the comment itself.

What I can see from that link is the node it points to:

file: XXXXXX
node: XXXXXX
screen: /sign-up-2 (iOS)
That screen contains:

nav title Sign Up
Email and Password inputs
Sign Up primary CTA
Continue with Apple
Continue with Google
divider Or
Already have an account? Sign in
bottom legal links
But I still cannot read the actual Figma comment thread or the #XXXXXX anchor content from this session.

If you want, paste the comment text here and I can map it to this exact screen and tell you what change it implies.

Absolutely agree. I’m using FigJam to collaborate with AI - and I want Claude Code to read my comments and apply the edits.

I’d be interesting to see the option to add comments to files too

Not only comments, but native Dev Mode annotations too. Both of these are valuable sources of context that get lost for anything using the MCP. My response from Github Copilot:

This is a limitation of the Figma MCP server that powers my Figma tools — it currently exposes the layer/node tree but not the annotations or comments API endpoints.
