List all top-level frames in the file (including frames inside sections).
AI agents call list_figma_frames to retrieve information from YetAnotherFigmaMCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves and enumerates existing Figma frame data with no side effects. It does not create, modify, delete, or execute any operations — it is a straightforward data retrieval operation. The low severity reflects minimal risk from misuse: an agent listing frames cannot cause harm to the design file or other systems.
From the tool's definition Tool name is 'list_figma_frames' and description states 'List all top-level frames in the file' — a query operation that retrieves design data without modification.
Attacks that exploit this kind of access
List all top-level frames in the file (including frames inside sections). It is categorised as a Read tool in the YetAnotherFigmaMCP MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Register the YetAnotherFigma MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for list_figma_frames: 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 YetAnotherFigmaMCP. Nothing to install.
list_figma_frames 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 list_figma_frames 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 list_figma_frames. 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.
list_figma_frames is provided by the YetAnotherFigma MCP server (yk-lab/yet-another-figma-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
