Our reading of Open Design, from the data

Open Design is a design MCP server from feimacode, listed in the official MCP Registry.

We haven't measured its tool list yet, so its token cost is unknown.

With 2 GitHub stars it ranks #191 of 696 design servers we index.

It runs locally on your machine over stdio and needs one secret (OPEN_DESIGN_FIGMA_TOKEN); use a scoped, least-privilege key.
