AI agents call get_nodes_info to retrieve information from MCP Figma without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves metadata and information about Figma design nodes. It performs a query operation with no side effects, no data modification, and no irreversible actions. The blast radius of misuse is minimal—an AI agent could retrieve design information it shouldn't see, but cannot alter designs, delete content, or cause financial harm. Classified as Read/low severity.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_nodes_info' and description 'Get detailed information about multiple nodes in Figma' indicate retrieval of data without modification.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
Get detailed information about multiple nodes in Figma. It is categorised as a Read tool in the MCP Figma MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the MCP Figma MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for get_nodes_info: 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 MCP Figma. Nothing to install.
get_nodes_info 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_nodes_info 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_nodes_info. 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_nodes_info is provided by the MCP Figma MCP server (yelowflash09/figma_mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
