What extract_missing_states does on Figma Spec

AI agents call extract_missing_states to retrieve information from Figma Spec without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

Why extract_missing_states needs a policy

Even though extract_missing_states only reads data, uncontrolled read access leaks sensitive information and racks up API costs — an agent caught in a retry loop can make thousands of calls a minute without anyone noticing.

Questions about extract_missing_states

What does the extract_missing_states tool do? +

Finds components and component sets in a Figma subtree, compares detected states against a standard expected-state list, and reports missing state coverage with a confidence score. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Figma Spec MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.

How do I enforce a policy on extract_missing_states? +

Register the Figma Spec MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for extract_missing_states: 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 Spec. Nothing to install.

What risk level is extract_missing_states? +

extract_missing_states is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.

Can I rate-limit extract_missing_states? +

Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the extract_missing_states 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 extract_missing_states completely? +

Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for extract_missing_states. 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 extract_missing_states? +

extract_missing_states is provided by the Figma Spec MCP server (zaferdace/figma-spec-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
