Robloxstudio Mcp Inspector

Debug your game while it runs. The most capable Roblox Studio MCP server: live game-VM eval, log breakpoints, profiler captures, and full playtest automation, built for agent-driven development from Claude, Cursor, Codex, or Gemini.

NPM Version

The tools that matter

78 tools total. These are the ones that do the heavy lifting:

Runtime debugging

• eval_server_runtime / eval_client_runtime: run Luau in the live game VM on the server or a specific client, sharing the same require cache as your scripts. Inspect MatchService.activeMatches mid-match.
• breakpoints: log breakpoints that instrument live code without pausing the playtest.
• get_runtime_logs: buffered log capture per peer (edit, server, client-N), including boot-time prints.

Playtest automation

• solo_playtest / multiplayer_playtest: start, inspect, and stop playtests, including multi-client sessions.
• manage_instance: launch and close Studio windows, open blank baseplates, local files, or specific published place revisions. Launches return an opaque launch_id, native PID, source path, and launching | connected | exited | failed lifecycle state, so asynchronous and failed launches remain inspectable and closable before a plugin connects.

Profiling & performance

• capture_script_profiler / capture_micro_profiler: CPU hotspots with debug labels and microsecond timing, on server or client.
• get_memory_breakdown / get_scene_analysis: memory and scene attribution per peer.

Editing & automation at scale

• execute_luau: full-power edit-context scripting with output capture.
• mass_set_property, bulk_set_attributes, find_and_replace_in_scripts: bulk operations for large places.
• capture_screenshot + simulated mouse/keyboard input: see the viewport and interact with UI.

Agent guidance

• get_roblox_docs: official engine API docs fetched as markdown, so your agent checks ProximityPrompt or CFrame semantics before writing code instead of hallucinating them.
• get_roblox_skills: list and retrieve Roblox-authored skills.

Setup

1. Enable Allow HTTP Requests in Game Settings → Security
2. Wire up your AI. --auto-install-plugin installs the matching Studio plugin automatically:

# Claude Code
claude mcp add robloxstudio -- npx -y @chrrxs/robloxstudio-mcp@latest --auto-install-plugin

# Codex CLI
codex mcp add robloxstudio -- npx -y @chrrxs/robloxstudio-mcp@latest --auto-install-plugin

# Gemini CLI
gemini mcp add robloxstudio npx --trust -- -y @chrrxs/robloxstudio-mcp@latest --auto-install-plugin

3. Fully close and reopen Studio after the plugin is first installed or updated. The plugin shows Connected when ready.

Multiple open places connect to the same server; call get_connected_instances and pass instance_id to route tool calls. Custom Plugins folder: set MCP_PLUGINS_DIR. Manual plugin install: npx -y @chrrxs/robloxstudio-mcp@latest --install-plugin.

What you can ask

"Start a multiplayer test with 2 clients, read the server log, and tell me why the round never starts." "Evaluate MatchService.activeMatches on the server while a match is running." "Set a log breakpoint on the damage function, reproduce the hit, then read the breakpoint logs." "Capture a server Script Profiler sample while the wave spawns and rank the hottest functions." "Find scripts using deprecated APIs and rewrite them." "List recent versions for this place, then open version 3134 in a managed Studio window."
