TalkToFigmaDesktop AGENTS.md

TalkToFigmaDesktop AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from grab/TalkToFigmaDesktop. It costs 2,879 tokens per session, scanned C, original, MIT.

Repository instructions for TalkToFigma Desktop, an Electron desktop app that connects Figma with AI coding tools through MCP. Electron lets one JavaScript-based app run on macOS, Windows, and Linux; Figma is a collaborative design tool.

In plain words
What is it for?
Starting the development app, linting TypeScript and React code, building components, and creating platform installers.
Why use it?
They explain the app's architecture, migration history, and commands needed to develop and package it.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade C, and why

TalkToFigmaDesktop AGENTS.md scanned grade C with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 4d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

AGENTS.md

This file provides guidance to Codex (Codex.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.

Project Overview

TalkToFigma Desktop is an Electron-based desktop application that bridges Figma with AI tools (Cursor, Codex, VS Code) using the Model Context Protocol (MCP). It enables AI assistants to read and manipulate Figma designs through a structured protocol.

Current Version: 2.0.0 Bundle ID: com.grabtaxi.klever Architecture: Electron + React + TypeScript

Migration History

This project was migrated from Kotlin Compose Desktop to Electron in January 2026 (v2.0.0). The Electron version maintains feature parity while adding cross-platform support (macOS, Windows, Linux) and better developer experience with modern JavaScript tooling.

Development Commands

Start Development Server

npm start
# Launches Electron app with hot reload
# Main process: src/main.ts
# Renderer process: src/renderer.tsx

Build & Package

npm run package  # Package for current platform
npm run make     # Create distributable installers

Linting

npm run lint     # Run ESLint on TypeScript files

Building Individual Components

The project uses Vite with multiple entry points configured in forge.config.ts:

  • Main process: src/main.tsvite.main.config.ts
  • Preload script: src/preload.tsvite.preload.config.ts
  • Renderer: React app → vite.renderer.config.ts
  • MCP stdio server: src/main/server/mcp-stdio-server.tsvite.stdio.config.ts

Architecture

High-Level Overview

MCP Clients (Cursor, Codex, etc.)
    │ spawn independent process per client
    ▼
stdio MCP Servers (one per client)
    │ WebSocket connection (ws://127.0.0.1:3055)
    ▼
WebSocket Server (Electron App - Port 3055)
    │ Channel-based routing
    ▼
Figma Plugin

Core Architectural Concepts

1. Multi-Process Architecture
  • Each MCP client (Cursor, Codex) spawns its own independent stdio server process
  • stdio servers are NOT managed by the Electron app - they're spawned by the MCP clients themselves
  • All stdio servers connect to the same WebSocket server (port 3055) in the Electron app
  • This allows multiple AI tools to work with Figma simultaneously

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
