Design & Media
What the Figma connector can do
Product teams design in Figma, creating interfaces and hand them off to engineering. Linked to type.com, Figma lets Claude leave comments and reactions on files, attach development resources such as tickets or docs to design nodes, update variables and modes in bulk, and register webhooks for file events. Designers and engineers coordinate the handoff in a shared thread.
One connection, many Spaces
Connect Figma once, then decide which Spaces can use it in threads, skills, automations, and coding work.
What teams do with Figma in type.com
Post review feedback on a file
Turn the design critique from a thread into comments on the Figma file itself, so designers see each piece of feedback right next to the frame it concerns.
Add a Figma comment on the checkout file: 'Primary button contrast fails on dark mode, see thread for details.'
Link tickets to designs
Attach dev resources like issue or spec URLs to the right frames, so engineers can jump from a design to the work item.
Create Figma dev resources on the 'Checkout v3' frames linking each to its Linear issue URL from this thread.
Update design tokens
Change variable values or add a mode across a collection in one batch, for example when the brand palette shifts.
In our Figma tokens file, update the 'brand/primary' variable to #2B4CFF in both light and dark modes.

FAQ
Questions people ask before connecting Figma
Can Claude comment on Figma files?
Yes. With Figma connected to a type.com Space, Claude can add comments and reactions, attach dev resources, update variables, and create webhooks. Design feedback written in a thread can go straight onto the file.
How do I connect Figma to type.com?
You can sign in with OAuth or add a Figma personal access token as an API key. Admins create the connection once and share it with the Spaces that need it.
Can the agent update design tokens in Figma?
Yes. The variables action can create, modify, or delete variables, collections, and modes in a file. Review the planned changes in the thread before the agent applies them.
Is this the same as a Figma MCP server?
Not exactly. type.com uses connectors and connections to give selected Spaces access to approved app tools and data. Some connectors use hosted MCP, while others use OAuth, API keys, service accounts, or custom APIs.
