Not pulling in Effects data

Author: dsiglinCreated Aug 16, 2025Updated Feb 13, 2026
  • Expected: Figma nodes with drop shadows expose effects in node data.
  • Observed: get_node_info responses for nodes that visually have shadows (e.g., DatePicker canvas/children) lacked an effects array.
  • Likely: MCP plugin/server isn’t serializing/forwarding node.effects from the Figma Plugin API, so effects aren’t surfaced to clients.
