O: This is worth a look for designers who want to connect Figma data to AI tools and first check in the tool's settings whether MCP is supported and which files and resources get connected. X: The MCP limitations and openness assessment in the original come from Dylan Field's personal and company stance, so it should be noted that they have not been independently verified.
