Kiyas Overview

saiffmirza/kiyas MCP server compares a Figma frame or supplied design image with a rendered UI component. It resolves a natural-language component description to a development URL and CSS selector, captures the implementation with Playwright, and sends both images through Claude Code or Codex CLI for structured visual analysis. Use it when reviewing design fidelity in a local codebase and you need discrepancies tied to CSS properties, values, and severity. Figma URL comparisons require a Figma access token; supplied images do not.
