Agent Metadata
Known Gotchas
- ⚠ Requires Roblox Studio to be actively open with the companion plugin installed - not a standalone service
- ⚠ Third-party AI tools will have read/write access to your open Roblox place - privacy consideration noted in README
- ⚠ run_script_in_play_mode has automatic timeout handling but timeout duration not documented
- ⚠ Long-polling architecture means latency depends on Studio responsiveness
