Cursor AI can now connect directly to Figma through the Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server, enabling design-to-code workflows. The setup involves enabling the MCP server in Figma's desktop app and adding it to Cursor. While promising, the integration has limitations including inability to update existing code, challenges with multi-frame components, no visual refinement capabilities, and developer-only accessibility. The article presents Fusion as an alternative that offers surgical code updates, automatic complex flow handling, visual editing of production code, and enables non-developers to ship code.
