Stud is an AI coding assistant specifically designed for Roblox Studio that enables developers to write Luau code, edit instances, and ship projects from a single terminal interface. It provides natural language coding powered by AI, allowing developers to describe what they want and receive production-ready Luau code directly in their terminal environment.

Stud offers 27+ specialized tools for Roblox Studio including script editing capabilities to read, write, and edit Luau scripts directly in Roblox Studio instances. It provides instance manipulation tools to create, move, delete, and modify any instance in the game hierarchy. The assistant includes DataStore access for querying and updating DataStores for testing and debugging player data, along with Toolbox search functionality to find and insert models, plugins, and assets from the Roblox Toolbox. Additional features include read and write operations, glob and grep functionality, bash execution, subagent delegation, LSP integration, MCP protocol support, session management, smart file handling, and terminal-native interface.

The system operates through a terminal-based interface where developers can execute commands using natural language descriptions. Stud understands codebases deeply, learning patterns to write code that fits naturally into existing projects. It features a robust permission system that ensures actions are only taken with explicit approval, showing exactly what will be done before any action is taken.

Benefits include streamlined Roblox development workflows, reduced coding time through AI assistance, and comprehensive tool integration. Use cases cover editing Luau scripts, manipulating game instances, testing DataStore operations, searching for assets in the Toolbox, and managing complex development tasks through subagent delegation.

The product targets Roblox developers who work with Roblox Studio and need efficient coding tools. It integrates deeply with Roblox Studio's ecosystem and provides terminal-based workflow integration. Technical details include modern AI with deep tooling integration, granular permissions system, configurable policies, and support for resuming sessions with token usage tracking.
