create_component

Convert an existing FRAME node into a reusable COMPONENT. The frame is replaced in place by the new component.

Part of the Figma Mcp Go server.

create_component can modify Figma Mcp Go data, with no limits today. PolicyLayer puts allow, deny, and rate-limit rules on every call. Live in minutes.

AI agents use create_component to create or modify resources in Figma Mcp Go. Write operations carry medium risk because an autonomous agent could trigger bulk unintended modifications. Rate limits prevent a single agent session from making hundreds of changes in rapid succession. Argument validation ensures the agent passes expected values.

Without a policy, an AI agent could call create_component repeatedly, creating or modifying resources faster than any human could review. PolicyLayer's rate limiting ensures write operations happen at a controlled pace, and argument validation catches malformed or unexpected inputs before they reach Figma Mcp Go.

Write tools can modify data. A rate limit prevents runaway bulk operations from AI agents.

These attack patterns abuse exactly the kind of access create_component gives an agent. Each links to the full case and the policy that stops it:

Every attack above starts with a tool call. PolicyLayer checks each one against your policy first, so create_component only ever does what you allow.

What does the create_component tool do? +

Convert an existing FRAME node into a reusable COMPONENT. The frame is replaced in place by the new component.. It is categorised as a Write tool in the Figma Mcp Go MCP Server, which means it can create or modify data. Consider rate limits to prevent runaway writes.

How do I enforce a policy on create_component? +

Register the Figma Mcp Go MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for create_component: 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 Figma Mcp Go. Nothing to install.

What risk level is create_component? +

create_component is a Write tool with medium risk. Write tools should be rate-limited to prevent accidental bulk modifications.

Can I rate-limit create_component? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the create_component 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.

How do I block create_component completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for create_component. 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.

What MCP server provides create_component? +

create_component is provided by the Figma Mcp Go MCP server (@vkhanhqui/figma-mcp-go). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.

Enforce policy on every Figma Mcp Go tool call.
