Google Design MCP server
5 tools · Last check that passed 27 Oct 2026, 01:50 UTC
Google's own remote MCP server for its Design MCP API gives an agent Material Design color schemes, Material icons and Google Fonts. Once a day, Stackduke connects to it the way any MCP client would, with no account and no sign-in, and lists its tools. It never runs them.

The tools the server listed at the last check that passed, at its default address and settings, with no sign-in; an account that signs in, or other settings, may see other tools. What a tool is counted as doing is Stackduke's cautious reading of the server's labels, the tool's name and its description: where they disagree it takes whichever says the tool can do most, so it overcounts on purpose. It does not say the server is safe, and it does not list what a tool cannot do. Descriptions are not shown, because they are written for models and may try to steer them.

Know when Google Design's tools change.
One email when Google Design's official MCP server adds, removes or changes tools, with what changed. Nothing else.
What to watch for
- Icon guidance and font descriptions come back to the agent as text, and text an agent reads can carry instructions for it. OWASP, prompt injection
How to limit it
With Google Design's own settings, as its documentation describes them. Stackduke has not tested them.
- Google says developers do not need an API key or OAuth credentials for it, so we recommend connecting it with no Google credentials. Google's Design MCP API overview
What Stackduke is designed to do
Stackduke is designed to sit between your agents and their MCP servers: to check each tool call against your rules before it runs, hold the risky ones for a person to approve, and keep a record of what was decided.
It does not yet forward or block tool calls for customers. Today it reads what this server offers and publishes what changes.
