Access Video and Image Models from Figma Weave via the Figma MCP
Figma now enables external AI agents to trigger media generation models like Kling and Seedance directly within workflows via the Figma MCP.
What: Figma integrated its Weave video and image models into the Model Context Protocol (MCP), allowing third-party agents to generate assets. It also added version control for generative plugins, enabling developers to restore previous iterations.
Why it matters: By connecting generative models to MCP, Figma is positioning itself as a foundational platform layer for agentic workflows rather than just a design tool.
Takeaway: If you are building AI agents, you can now access Figma's media models via the Figma MCP by linking your Figma Weave account.
Deep dive
- MCP Integration: Allows cross-platform AI agents to trigger Figma's video and image generation models.
- Version Control: Every change to a generative plugin or shader now creates an agent-annotated change log.
- Credits: Media generation is metered via Weave credits, requiring an active account.
Decoder
- MCP (Model Context Protocol): An open-source standard created by Anthropic that allows AI models to connect securely to external data sources and tools.
- Weave: Figma's internal suite of generative AI tools and infrastructure for design and prototyping.

View and restore previous versions of your generative plugins and shaders
Editing your generative plugins and shaders now creates a new version, preserving previous versions of your tools for you to revisit and restore. Each new version gets an agent-generated description to form a change log and provide a view of which version is currently published. Rolling out this week.
