Create a FigJam section. Sections are used to group and organise content on the FigJam board. They appear as labelled coloured regions.
AI agents use create_section to create or update resources in Claude Talk to Figma MCP — usually the action step of a workflow, after the agent has gathered context. Every call changes real data in your Claude Talk to Figma MCP environment.
Creating a FigJam section adds new content to a design canvas but does not delete data, execute arbitrary code, or cause financial impact. This is a straightforward content creation operation, classified as Write. Severity is low because the blast radius of misuse is limited to organizational structure changes in a design document with no destructive or systemic consequences.
From the tool's definition Tool description states it 'Create[s] a FigJam section' which is explicitly a create operation that modifies the design canvas by adding a new organizational element. The action is reversible (sections can be deleted or modified afterward).
Documented attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access create_section gives an agent:
PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Claude Talk to Figma MCP, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for create_section:
{
"version": "1",
"default": "deny",
"tools": {
"create_section": {
"limits": [
{
"counter": "create_section_rate",
"window": "minute",
"max": 30,
"scope": "grant"
}
]
}
}
} create_section stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Create a FigJam section. Sections are used to group and organise content on the FigJam board. They appear as labelled coloured regions. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Claude Talk to Figma MCP MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.
Register the Claude Talk to Figma MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for create_section: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Claude Talk to Figma MCP. Nothing to install.
create_section is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the create_section rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for create_section. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
create_section is provided by the Claude Talk to Figma MCP server (arinspunk/claude-talk-to-figma-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Start from Claude Talk to Figma MCP, add the rest of your stack, and see everything your agents can call. Then put policy on all of it.
