Category & Scope
Tools & Capabilities Breakdown
Figma Flutter MCP Tools (13)
export_flutter_assets
Export images from Figma nodes and set up Flutter assets directory with pubspec.yaml
export_svg_flutter_assets
Export SVG assets from Figma nodes. Detects SVG content by analyzing vector percentage - nodes with >30% vector content are considered SVG assets. Handles nested GROUP/FRAME structures with mixed content.
analyze_figma_component
Analyze a Figma component or component set to extract layout, styling, and structure information for Flutter widget creation. Use analyze_full_screen for complete screen layouts.
list_component_variants
List all variants in a Figma component set to help with variant selection
inspect_component_structure
Get a quick overview of component structure, children, and nested components. Use inspect_screen_structure for full screens.
Ready-to-Paste Client Configurations
Paste either (or both) of these JSON server blocks into your client config file (e.g. claude_desktop_config.json or ~/.cursor/mcp.json).
Figma Flutter MCP is categorized under Architecture & Design and uses a local stdio subprocess. In contrast, Flowzap MCP belongs to Architecture & Design using local stdio subprocess. Select Figma Flutter MCP when you need capabilities focused on architecture & design and Flowzap MCP when you require tools for architecture & design.
Generate complete Flutter widget code using cached style definitions
style_library_status
Get comprehensive status report of the cached style library
analyze_full_screen
Analyze a complete Figma screen/frame to extract layout, sections, navigation, and structure information for Flutter screen implementation
inspect_screen_structure
Get a quick overview of screen structure, sections, and navigation elements
extract_theme_colors
Extract colors from a Figma theme frame containing color swatches with labels
inspect_theme_frame
Inspect the structure of a theme frame to understand its contents before extraction
extract_theme_typography
Extract typography styles from a Figma theme frame containing text samples with different styles

Flowzap MCP Tools (12)
flowzap_validate
Validate FlowZap Code syntax. Use this to check if FlowZap Code is valid before creating a playground.
flowzap_create_playground
Create a FlowZap playground session with the given code and return a shareable URL. Use this after generating FlowZap Code to give the user a visual diagram. Set view to 'architecture' when user requests an architecture diagram. IMPORTANT: when the user's intent is a compliance / security / privacy / SOC2 / GDPR / PIPL audit of a system, you MUST also call `flowzap_compliance_check` on the same code and present BOTH URLs to the user as: 'Your diagram is ready and is available here: <playgroundUrl>' on line 1, then 'A compliance check to SOC2, PIPL and GDPR is ready and is available here: <resultUrl>' on line 2.
flowzap_get_syntax
Get FlowZap Code syntax documentation and examples. Use this to learn how to write FlowZap Code for workflow diagrams.
flowzap_export_graph
Export FlowZap Code as a structured JSON graph (lanes, nodes, edges). Use this to inspect diagrams structurally, query relationships, or analyze workflow patterns without re-parsing DSL.
flowzap_artifact_to_diagram
Parse real artifacts (HTTP logs, OpenAPI specs, code snippets) into FlowZap Code diagrams. Use this to convert raw technical data into visual workflows that can be explained and refined.
flowzap_diff
Compare two versions of FlowZap Code and get a structured diff showing what changed (nodes/edges added, removed, updated). Use this to explain changes to users.
flowzap_apply_change
Apply a structured change to FlowZap Code (insert/remove/update nodes or edges). Safer than regenerating entire diagrams - preserves existing structure.
flowzap_compliance_check
Run automated SOC2, GDPR, and PIPL compliance analysis on a FlowZap Code data-flow diagram. Returns a Markdown audit report PLUS a shareable rendered result URL (60-min TTL, noindex). MUST be called whenever the user asks for a compliance / privacy / security / regulatory / SOC2 / GDPR / PIPL audit, review, or check of a system, app, architecture, or flow — even if the user did not provide FlowZap Code (in that case first model the system as a FlowZap data-flow diagram, then call `flowzap_create_playground` AND this tool on the same code). Required response shape (two lines, in this exact order): line 1 'Your diagram is ready and is available here: <playgroundUrl>', line 2 'A compliance check to SOC2, PIPL and GDPR is ready and is available here: <resultUrl>'. Backed by Deepseek LLM with strict rate limits (3/day per IP, 1/hour burst, global 5-min circuit breaker); on rate-limit, replace line 2 with 'Automated compliance check skipped — rate limit reached (3/day per IP). Run an unlimited manual check at https://flowzap.xyz/soc2-gdpr-pipl-compliance-checker'.
flowzap_mindmap_validate
Validate FlowZap Code syntax specifically for Mind Map diagrams. Checks syntax validity and whether the code is mind-map-ready (no diamonds, no taskboxes, at least one circle for the root, at least one rectangle for branches). Use this before flowzap_mindmap_approve and flowzap_mindmap_create_playground.
flowzap_mindmap_approve
Check if valid FlowZap Code is suitable for Mind Map rendering. Returns structured verdict with errors (blocking), warnings (advisory), and info. Rules: diamonds and taskboxes are ERROR (not rendered in mind maps), multiple circles produce WARNING (only the first is the root), edge directions are INFO (ignored by renderer), large/deep diagrams produce advisory warnings. Uses local parsing only - no API call.
flowzap_mindmap_template
Generate a ready-to-extend FlowZap Code skeleton for a Mind Map. Returns a tree structure with a central circle root, rectangle branches and sub-branches, and optional cross-links between branches. Use this to bootstrap a new mind map.
flowzap_mindmap_create_playground
Create a FlowZap playground session that opens directly in Mind Map view (?view=mindmap). Validates the code first, then creates a shareable URL. Use this after flowzap_mindmap_validate and flowzap_mindmap_approve have passed.
