Get all components from a Figma file
AI agents call get_components to retrieve information from Figma MCP Proxy Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries and retrieves component information from a Figma file. There are no side effects, no data modification, no code execution, and no destructive operations. It is a straightforward read operation with minimal blast radius if misused by an AI agent — at worst, it could expose design system information already accessible to users with token access.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Get all components from a Figma file' — retrieves design component metadata without modification.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get all components from a Figma file. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Figma MCP Proxy Server MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the Figma MCP Proxy Server MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_components: 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 Proxy Server. Nothing to install.
get_components 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 get_components 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 get_components. 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.
get_components is provided by the Figma MCP Proxy Server MCP server (vbrail/proxy_mcp_figma). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
