Build a palette

Drop in a photo and get a full set of named color variables that compliment it. An instant color palette, ready to use in your document.

Build designs from code

Point your AI client at a repo to recreate text styles, colors, UI components, and even entire pages inside Sketch.

Get started in minutes

Start the server

Press K to open the Command Bar in Sketch, type “MCP”, and hit Start. The server runs locally on your Mac.

Connect your AI Client

Works with Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, Codex, and any other MCP-compatible client.

Start prompting

Tell your AI client what to do. It writes and runs the code inside Sketch, checks its own work, and iterates until the job’s done.

Your tools, your data, your Mac

The MCP server runs locally on your Mac and can’t be accessed remotely. It’s off by default — you decide when to switch it on and what your AI client can see. Prefer to keep everything on-device? MCP-compatible local models work too.

Thanks to newly launched Sketch MCP. I vibe coded/designed the booking system for pet hotel with Elixir/Phoenix and Tidewave. Now, I convert all LiveView pages into a Sketch files and pass it to real UI/UX designer. And, later from Sketch, I can convert it back into LiveView.

11 localizations, 7 screenshots each, took me 30 minutes to update the template. 5 minutes to translate with Codex and Sketch MCP. LFG

Tried out using @sketch MCP server and Claude to automatically translate Psylo’s App Store screenshots. Works pretty well for a first pass but the text layouts will need some work. I’m going to try to have Claude do it too 🤖

I built a new Skill to interact with Sketch. Now I can riff on app designs with vectors, rather than random image generation.

If you are still doing things manually in @sketch then you are missing out. This is the Sketch MCP creating App Store assets for @Smartplanhq across all supported languages within 5 minutes. The screenshot process is also automated. I will share that later.

The only AI feature I need from my design tool is an API and/or an MCP that doesn’t get hamstrung to sell me a higher tier. Sketch nailed it.
