Most Figma MCP servers rely on the Figma REST API.

That sounds fine… until you hit this:

| Plan | Limit | |------|-------| | Starter / View / Collab | 6 tool calls/month | | Pro / Org (Dev seat) | 200 tool calls/day | | Enterprise | 600 tool calls/day |

If you're experimenting with AI tools, you'll burn through that in minutes.

I didn't have enough money to pay for higher limits. So I built something that doesn't use the API at all.
