Anima MCP Server Guide

The Anima MCP server connects your AI coding assistant directly to Anima Playground, Figma designs, and your team's design system. It bridges the gap between PM prototypes and production code.

For the complete set of Anima MCP server docs, see our help documentation.

Features

  • Handoff Anima playgrounds to coding agents

    Pull code from any Anima Playground into your local environment. The AI downloads the project, reads relevant files, understands patterns, and implements an adapted version in your codebase.

  • Figma to code

    Convert Figma designs directly to code through your AI coding agent with high fidelity. Your agent uses Anima MCP to fetch the design and generate production-ready code.

  • Design system access (Enterprise)

    Reference your team's design system directly when implementing features. The AI pulls your design system docs and builds using your team's established components and patterns.

Prompting your MCP client

Once connected, you can prompt your MCP client to access Anima Playground projects and Figma designs.

Handoff from Anima Playground

Copy the link to an Anima Playground and prompt your agent:

"Implement the welcome screen from this playground: https://dev.animaapp.com/chat/xyz"

What happens:

  1. AI downloads the playground project
  2. AI reads relevant files and understands patterns
  3. AI implements an adapted version in your codebase

[!TIP] Be specific about which feature you want. The AI will find the relevant files and adapt the code to fit your project's patterns.

Figma to code

Copy a Figma design link and prompt your agent:

"Implement this Figma design using Anima MCP: https://figma.com/design/..."

Your AI agent will use Anima MCP to fetch the design and generate production-ready code in your codebase.

Design system access (Enterprise)

Reference your team's design system directly when implementing features:

"Implement a login form following our design system, use Anima MCP and figma url: ..."

The AI pulls your design system docs and builds using your team's established components and patterns.

Getting started: Design system setup is done with our team. Contact us to get it configured.

Best practices

Be specific in your prompts

Instead of: "Implement this playground" Try: "Implement the login form component from this playground, using my existing Button and Input components"

Reference existing patterns

When implementing from Anima, tell the AI about your codebase patterns:

"Implement this design using our existing components from src/components/ui and follow our Tailwind styling patterns"

Break down large designs

For complex playgrounds or Figma files, request specific sections:

  1. "First, implement just the header component"
  2. "Now implement the card grid layout"
  3. "Finally, add the footer"

This helps keep implementations focused and accurate.
