Introduction

Atomic Agent is an open-source AI agent that runs on your machine and supports local models through llama.cpp. Connect it to 1,500+ apps through Composio, including Figma.

This guide uses Atomic Agent's built-in Composio integration. You need Atomic Agent v0.5.6 or later, your own Composio API key, and a Figma account. See the Atomic Agent documentation for installation instructions.

How Atomic Agent connects to Figma

Atomic Agent connects to Composio's Tool Router over Streamable HTTP MCP. It discovers the tools needed for your request, and Composio handles account authentication.

Execution and account-connection tools follow Atomic Agent's configured approval policy. Review any approval prompt before allowing an action on your connected account.

Connect Figma to Atomic Agent

  1. Sign up or sign in to the Composio dashboard. Copy your API key.
  2. In Atomic Agent, open the Integrations tab and select Composio. Select API key, press e, paste the key, and press Enter. The tools become available immediately, without a restart.
  3. Ask Atomic Agent to do something in Figma. It searches Composio for the right tool.
  4. On first use, open the sign-in link returned in the chat. Connect your Figma account, then return to Atomic Agent to continue.

Headless setup

Add the following line to ~/.atomic-agent/.env, replacing YOUR_COMPOSIO_API_KEY with your key. Start Atomic Agent after saving the file.

bash
COMPOSIO_API_KEY=YOUR_COMPOSIO_API_KEY

What is the Figma MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Figma MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Figma account. It provides structured and secure access to your Figma workspace, so your agent can perform actions like commenting on designs, managing design tokens, linking developer resources, and automating collaboration workflows on your behalf.

  • Automated commenting and feedback loops: Have your agent add, reply to, or delete comments on Figma files and branches to streamline design reviews and team discussions.
  • Design token management and conversion: Let the agent extract, update, or convert design tokens in your files, including generating Tailwind CSS configurations for seamless dev handoff.
  • Developer resource integration: Automatically attach, update, or remove dev resources linked to Figma nodes, bridging the gap between design and development with contextual documentation or code references.
  • Webhook setup and automation: Enable your agent to create or delete webhooks for team events, making it easy to trigger notifications or workflows based on design activity.
  • Collaborative variable management: Empower the agent to batch-create, modify, or delete variables, collections, and modes across your design system, keeping everything consistent and up to date.

Use Figma from Atomic Agent

With your account connected, ask Atomic Agent to work with Figma in natural language. You can connect more apps through the same Composio integration as you need them.

Visit the Atomic Agent website or inspect the Atomic Agent source code.

Troubleshooting

Why is my API key rejected?

Copy the key directly from the Composio dashboard. Atomic Agent requires ASCII characters because it sends the key in an HTTP header. Remove any extra characters introduced when copying.

Why are Composio tools unavailable after saving a key?

Check that you use Atomic Agent v0.5.6 or later and that Composio is enabled in your configuration. A "composio": { "enabled": false } setting disables the integration while keeping the saved key on disk.

Does Composio have a free plan?

The Hobby plan includes 100,000 tool calls per month. Composio-managed OAuth apps have a lower included allowance. See Composio pricing for the current limits that apply to your connection.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

With a standalone Figma MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Figma tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Figma and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

Yes, you can. Atomic Agent fully supports MCP integration. You get structured tool calling, message history handling, and model orchestration while Tool Router takes care of discovering and serving the right Figma tools.

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Figma scopes and actions are allowed when connecting your account to Composio. You can also bring your own OAuth credentials or API configuration so you keep full control over what the agent can do.

All sensitive data such as tokens, keys, and configuration is fully encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and follows strict security practices so your Figma data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
