Figma MCP should provide frame-to-image exporting as a tool. That way AI could export graphics in a page design as `.svg`s, `.png`s, etc... and upload them to our cloud bucket,or put them in our web assets folder.

Agree, exporting frame content via MCP is a must!


Magnus Sahlberg

We have a CSS design system (like Bootstrap) and every feature request there involving creating of icons includes a manual step of exporting the file .svg file and manually importing it into the codebase. If the MCP server could do this, the icon handling could - in theory - be fully automated (i.e. no developer needed, only UX pressing buttons).

This would be amazing! I have basically the same pain as Magnus. We have SVG icons and I need to generate a font with them. I need to export all of them… 

Right now claude is basically redoing the SVG with code instead of just having access to the already generated SVG.

try this mcp it will fetch svgs from figma with specific format :https://www.npmjs.com/package/figma-svg-to-icon-mcp

Even with the new `figma_use`, this is still relevant because frames may exceed the return-size limit. 

I’ve been doing it with my own plugin + mcp, but would be great to remove the need of having a plugin which connects via websocket to an mcp.

I’d like designers to use only the official figma MCP.
