Brio FAQs

Question 1

Is Brio compatible with AI tools other than Claude Code?

Accepted Answer

While Brio was primarily built for Claude Code, it is designed to be compatible with any AI coding assistant or MCP client that adheres to the Model Context Protocol's JSON-RPC standard for communication.

Question 2

What is Brio and how does it work with Figma?

Accepted Answer

Brio is a Figma Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides AI coding assistants direct access to Figma designs. It enables AI to interact with Figma files—reading, creating, and modifying elements—using natural language commands via a local WebSocket connection to a Figma plugin.

Question 3

How does Brio improve the design-to-engineering handoff process?

Accepted Answer

Brio bridges the gap by allowing AI coding assistants to directly interpret and manipulate Figma designs. This eliminates manual context loss during handoff, enabling automated code generation, design updates, and real-time synchronization between design and engineering.

Question 4

What specific design tasks can AI perform using Brio?

Accepted Answer

AI coding assistants can perform a wide range of tasks, including executing arbitrary JavaScript within Figma, reading selected nodes and page structures, managing design tokens (variables and collections), exporting nodes as screenshots, and navigating between pages, all through natural language prompts.

Question 5

What are the core requirements to start using Brio?

Accepted Answer

To use Brio, you'll need Node.js 20+, pnpm, the Figma desktop app, and a compatible AI coding assistant like Claude Code CLI. You must install the Brio Figma plugin and ensure it's running in your Figma file, connected to the local Brio MCP server.
