The Roblox Game Skill connects directly to Roblox Studio through the Model Context Protocol (MCP), enabling Claude to read your project’s instance hierarchy, execute Luau code, insert Creator Store assets, run playtests, and iterate on bugs — all without leaving your editor. On every invocation, the skill probes for characteristic tool names and selects the operating mode that matches your setup. No manual configuration is required.Documentation Index

How Mode Detection Works
At the start of each session — or whenever a Studio interaction is requested — the skill runs a lightweight detection pass over the available MCP tools. Detection resolves in priority order: the community server is preferred when both servers are present, because it offers the broadest toolset.Probe for Full Mode tools
The skill checks for any of the following tool names:
execute_luau, get_file_tree, grep_scripts, create_build, search_objects, get_instance_properties, get_script_source.If any of these are present, the skill sets MCP_MODE = "full" and activates the complete 39-tool workflow.Probe for Standard Mode tools
If no Full Mode tools are found, the skill checks for:
run_code, insert_model, get_console_output, start_stop_play, run_script_in_play_mode, get_studio_mode.If these are present without community tools, the skill sets MCP_MODE = "standard" and adapts all workflows to the 6-tool Official server.If both servers happen to be running at the same time, the skill always prefers the Community Server (
boshyxd/robloxstudio-mcp) for its broader toolset. It falls back to individual Official Server tools only when a community equivalent is unavailable or encountering errors.Mode Comparison
| Mode | Server | Tools | Capabilities |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full | boshyxd/robloxstudio-mcp | 39 | Project exploration, autonomous building, iterative debugging, bulk operations, Creator Store access |
| Standard | Roblox/studio-rust-mcp-server | 6 | Code execution, model insertion, console reading, play mode control |
| Offline | None | 0 | Pure Luau code generation with placement instructions and folder hierarchy |
Choose Your Mode
Full Mode
39 tools from the community MCP server. Autonomous scaffolding, live script editing, Creator Store search, bulk property updates, and bounded debug iteration.
Standard Mode
6 tools from the official Roblox MCP server. Code execution, model insertion, console reads, and play mode toggling — capable of most workflows with smart workarounds.
Offline Mode
No server required. Complete Luau scripts delivered with exact placement instructions, file-system layouts for Rojo users, and manual setup checklists.
