The Model Context Protocol — the open standard letting AI agents talk to your design and coding tools — just got its biggest rewrite since launch, locked in as the 2026-07-28 spec. If you use Cursor, Claude Code or Figma's MCP server, this reshapes how those tools authenticate and connect.

Anthropic made Claude Sonnet 5 the default model for every free and pro user from 1 July 2026, built for multi-step agentic tasks at near-flagship performance. The same class of model powers coding agents like Cursor and Claude Code, which connect to Figma via MCP.
