# Figma Local Bridge

> Use this tool when you need to access Figma documents without API key limitations or rate restrictions. It provides a local MCP server for querying document structure, retrieving node properties, and exporting images, making it ideal for development workflows like documentation generation and design system validation. The Figma Local Bridge takes Figma plugin input and outputs MCP interface data, suitable for use cases requiring real-time access to design data.

## Description

A local Figma MCP server that provides direct access to Figma documents without requiring API keys or dealing with rate limits. The implementation consists of a Figma plugin that connects to a local bridge server via WebSocket, which then exposes an MCP interface for querying document structure, retrieving node properties, searching for elements, exporting images, and accessing current selections. This approach bypasses Figma's REST API limitations by running entirely locally through the plugin sandbox, making it ideal for development workflows that need real-time access to Figma design data for documentation generation, design system validation, or automated asset extraction.
