Overview

From the repository's own README, as read at the audited commit. Badges and raw HTML are left out.

Connect your coding agent directly to Roblox Studio. It can edit places, run Luau in live server and client contexts, start and stop playtests, and collect logs, screenshots, memory reports, and profiler captures from each peer.

[](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@chrrxs/robloxstudio-mcp)

What it can do

Debug a running game

  • Run Luau with eval_server_runtime or eval_client_runtime. Both tools execute in a live server or client context and use the same require cache as your game scripts.
  • Instrument live code with breakpoints. It records each hit without pausing the playtest.
  • Read output from edit mode, the server, or a specific client with get_runtime_logs, including messages logged during startup.

Automate playtests

  • Start, inspect, and stop solo or multi-client sessions with solo_playtest and multiplayer_playtest.
  • Open or close Studio windows with manage_instance. It can launch a baseplate, a local place file, a published place, or an older place revision.

Find performance problems

  • Record server or client CPU timings with capture_script_profiler and capture_micro_profiler.
  • Break down memory use with get_memory_breakdown or attribute scene cost with get_scene_analysis.

Work in edit mode

  • Run Luau in Studio's edit context with execute_luau.
  • Use set_properties for instance properties and find_and_replace_in_scripts for script text. For project-specific bulk edits, use execute_luau.
  • For large generated Luau, use the verified chunk-staging workflow: explicit instance routing, UTF-8 byte/hash readback, ownership-checked cleanup, and bounded recovery without blindly replaying mutations.
  • Use selection to inspect or update Studio selection and frame a part or model before capturing the viewport.
  • Capture the viewport with capture_screenshot, then send mouse or keyboard input. See

Questions

What is the @chrrxs/robloxstudio-mcp MCP server?

MCP server for Roblox Studio runtime debugging, playtest control, screenshots/input, multiplayer testing, and per-peer server/client eval from AI agents.

What tools does @chrrxs/robloxstudio-mcp expose?

3 in total: 3 read-only, 0 that write, and 0 that can delete or overwrite. Every one is listed on this page with its risk.

Is @chrrxs/robloxstudio-mcp safe to connect to an agent?

No — not without reading the findings first. The audit graded it D (69/100) and found 1 critical or high issue in the source. Each one is listed on this page with the file and line it is on.

What credentials does @chrrxs/robloxstudio-mcp need?

It reads AUTH_EMPTY_READS, AUTH_TEST_HOME, AUTH_TOKEN_FILE, ROBLOX_OPEN_CLOUD_API_KEY, ROBLOX_STUDIO_AUTH_TOKEN and ROBLOX_STUDIO_NO_AUTH from the environment. Give it a token scoped to the least it needs — an agent that can be talked into calling a tool can be talked into calling it with your credentials.

How does @chrrxs/robloxstudio-mcp run?

It speaks streamable-http, so it runs as a service you connect to over the network. It is published on npm as studio-plugin at 1.0.0.

How current is this page?

The grade is for one exact copy of the source (8953a18d2b0a), read on 2026-10-12. The repository is watched and re-audited when it changes.
