  • analyze

    Analyze a Figma design for development-friendliness and AI-friendliness. Two ways to provide design data: 1. designData \u2014 Pass Figma node data directly (from Figma MCP get_metadata). Recommended when using Figma MCP. 2. input \u2014 Figma URL (fetches via REST API, requires FIGMA_TOKEN). Typical flow with Figma MCP: Step 1: Call Figma MCP get_metadata to get the node tree Step 2: Pass the res

What the publisher says

From the Canicode repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

CanICode

Ship your Figma design exactly as you intended — without learning CSS.

Try it in your browser — no install needed.

What canicode does

You designed it in Figma. You know exactly how it should look and behave — but the AI codegen guesses, and half the time it guesses wrong. The cards don't stack on mobile. The hover state disappears. The padding gets normalised. That's not what I designed.

canicode is the pre-implementation interview between your Figma file and AI codegen. It asks the questions a developer would ask before they implement — in plain language you can answer:

"The three cards are side-by-side at desktop width — what should happen when the screen is narrow?"

You answer in plain words ("좁아지면 한 줄에 하나씩" / "stack them vertically"). canicode translates that into the exact technical spec the codegen needs, and writes it back into your Figma file as a structured annotation so the next run no longer has to guess.

You stay in Figma. You never type a CSS selector. The intent ships.

→ Full thesis: docs/POSITIONING.md

The three layers

  1. Linter — 17 rules surface the gaps your craft instinct senses but can't name. "Something's off with this spacing." → it finds the one card with 14px padding while the rest are 16px.
  2. Q&A scaffolding — for every gap, canicode asks in your vocabulary, not the developer's. You answer, it spec'ifies.
  3. Roundtrip persistence — answers live in the Figma file as Dev Mode annotations. Next run, next person, next codegen — they all see the intent.

The linter is deterministic (no LLM tokens consumed for the analysis itself), ablation-validated at 94% pixel accuracy with 5× fewer tokens than raw JSON, and calibrated against real Figma designs.

Why canicode (vs Claude Design)

Claude Design launched in April 2026 and covers the prompt → app path beautifully — AI designs from your prompt and hands the result to Claude Code. canicode covers a different workflow:

If you want the AI to design for you, use Claude Design. If you already designed it and want it implemented exactly the way you intended, canicode is for you. The two are not in competition — they assume different things about who owns the design.

See docs/POSITIONING.md for the full thesis (target persona, the workflow assumption, and what canicode is not for).

The Roundtrip Workflow

Shortened. The full README is on GitHub.

Nothing above is checked by us. What we check is on the safety report.

Canicode: common questions

Is Canicode MCP server safe?
With care: it is graded C, so read the findings first (60/100). Read the Canicode safety report
How do I install Canicode?
It runs on your machine. Copy the Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code or Claude Desktop config from the install section.
Does Canicode need an API key?
Yes. The registry entry asks for FIGMA_TOKEN.
Is Canicode maintained?
The last commit was 122 days ago (2026-07-05). The latest release is v0.5.2.
What can I use instead of Canicode?
Servers from other publishers that do the same job: melta UI MCP server, HTML to Figma — Design System MCP server and Figma MCP Server.
How does Canicode compare with other Media MCP servers?
safety score 60/100 (higher than 14% of 1,337 Media servers); tools 3 (the typical Media server has 7); tools that change things 0% (typical: 4%. Fewer write tools means less an agent can break). Full comparison.
