Southleft Figma Console MCP
Open-source alternative to the official Figma MCP. v1.22.1 (April 2026, 1.6k stars): 94+ tools, batch operations on 100 variables / styles / components in a single request, low-level Figma console access (full node, variable, mode inspection). Deeper than the official MCP for mass operations like token migrations.
Strengths
- 94+ tools including batch ops on 100 variables, far beyond the official Figma MCP scope
- 1.6k stars, v1.22.1, monthly releases, active and maintained project
- Self-host, MIT, no vendor lock, usable behind VPN or via internal proxy
Limitations
- Large API surface, risk of batch errors if the agent confuses variables and styles, plan a draft-PR trust level before auto-merge
- Personal Figma token required, beware of permissions (read/write file contents) if you target prod
Best for
- DS managers migrating a 400+ variables system or consolidating modes in a multi-brand file
- Mass audits: list all detached components, find inconsistent modes, extract all hardcoded references
