GoKawiilFigma limits remote MCP server access to approved clients, excludes Pi
A Figma representative confirmed that the company's remote MCP server only works with clients on an approved allowlist, and the Pi client is not currently included. Figma pointed to its public MCP catalog listing supported clients and directed developers to a form to request that Pi be added in the future.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
Restricting MCP access to vetted clients suggests Figma is prioritizing control over security, compatibility, or support quality for its integration ecosystem, though the company did not state this reasoning explicitly. For third-party tool developers, exclusion from the allowlist could limit their users' ability to connect to Figma until approval is granted.
- Figma's remote MCP server only accepts clients from a whitelist
- The Pi client is not currently on Figma's supported list
- Developers can request inclusion via a form Figma provided
