## 🧠 What is MCP?

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is a structured JSON format that allows AI coding assistants to understand the layout and design structure of a frontend project.

Each component has:

```json
{
  "type": "component",
  "name": "Header",
  "description": "Generated from Figma",
  "children": ["Logo", "NavBar"],
  "props": {},
  "source": "Figma",
  "filePath": "/Home/Header.tsx",
  "parent": null
}
```

---

## 📄 Output Sample

```json
{
  "type": "project",
  "source": "Figma",
  "name": "Design System",
  "pages": [
    {
      "name": "Home",
      "components": [
        {
          "name": "Header",
          "type": "FRAME",
          "children": ["Logo", "Nav"]
        }
      ]
    }
  ],
  "meta": {
    "lastModified": "2025-03-29T10:00:00Z"
  }
}
```
