search_widgets
AI agents call search_widgets to retrieve information from Figma MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
Search operations retrieve and query data without creating, modifying, or deleting resources. In the context of a Figma design tool, searching widgets would retrieve widget metadata or listings. No evidence suggests this tool creates, modifies, deletes, executes code, or involves financial transactions.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'search_widgets' indicates a search/query operation with no side effects. The empty description limits confidence, but the naming convention aligns with Read category tools (search, list, get, fetch) on this Figma MCP server.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
search_widgets. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Figma MCP Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Figma MCP Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for search_widgets: 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 Server. Nothing to install.
search_widgets is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the search_widgets 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 search_widgets. 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.
search_widgets is provided by the Figma MCP Server MCP server (sichang824/mcp-figma). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
