This is doable. I set something similar up at scale. Figma Variables/Tokens -> Token Studio (Style Dictionary, essentially) -> Our Component library <-> Storybook -> MCP
Atomic component system, good page level template coverage, great prop support.
The LLM consumer nor the designer is allowed to write directly back to the library. Those changes need to go through a governance process to prevent drift as their are multiple product teams consuming it and we still don't have a reliable way to make sure Figma and the component library are always 1:1. Maybe in a company of a single designer.
So while this setup is arguably more fleshed out than what you have it still requires multiple humans in the loop.
Sure, there are a billion Medium articles about how it can be done with tokens but its much messier at any kind of scale.
