From f1801af062b07bc7a202b2bc80cc19f97513e061 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tushar Kant Naik <61114548+tknatwork@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Wed, 15 Jul 2026 04:26:15 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] =?UTF-8?q?docs:=20Figma=20trademark=20compliance=20?= =?UTF-8?q?=E2=80=94=20rename=20to=20"Limitless=20MCP=20for=20Figma"?= MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Per Figma's brand guidelines (https://www.figma.com/using-the-figma-brand/): "Don't put our name (or part of our name) in your ... product name" — the permitted form is descriptive ("... plugin for Figma"). So the DISPLAY name "Figma Limitless MCP" (Figma as a name prefix) becomes the compliant descriptive "Limitless MCP for Figma" across the plugin manifests (Figma-menu name), READMEs, workspace + product AGENTS, AI-GUIDE, and the e2e script. The technical slug `figma-limitless-mcp` (manifest id, package names, MCP registration key) is kept — it's an identifier, not a consumer brand name, and changing it would break `claude mcp add figma-limitless-mcp`. Also: - Non-affiliation disclaimer added to both READMEs ("not affiliated with, endorsed, or sponsored by Figma; 'Figma' used descriptively; local/private tool, not distributed via Figma Community"). - Softened absolute "no rate limits" claims (which sat awkwardly against Developer Terms §4(e)'s reserved right to rate-limit) to the accurate "no REST rate limits — uses the local Plugin API". - GitHub repo description updated to the compliant name + "unofficial". Plugin's conduct was already within the Developer Terms for local/private use (§7 distribution obligations don't apply — non-distributed; no data exfiltration). This closes the naming/marketing gap surfaced by the audit. Not legal advice.
