Cursor and Figma MCP for design-to-code

cursorfigmaworkflow

Composition, not regeneration

The useful pattern is composition, not regeneration. Design screens from your kit in Figma, then use design context in Cursor to map frames to existing components.

Keep primitives on-system

Do not let the agent recreate buttons and cards from scratch. Point it at your shadcn components and semantic tokens.

Layout vs behavior

Treat Figma as the layout source of truth and code as the behavior layer. Theme switching keeps working when tokens stay semantic.
