Studio Bridge v0.6.13

Releases

Changelog

Every release, newest first. The same list is in CHANGELOG.md in the repository, and each release has downloads on the releases page.

0.6.13 2026-11-02 Latest

  • macOS is now supported, though it has not been tested on a real Mac yet. install writes the plugin to both places Studio for Mac may read it from, and your data lives in ~/Library/Application Support/StudioBridge.
  • The screenshot tool works on macOS using the built-in screencapture, osascript and sips. It needs Screen & System Audio Recording permission for the terminal or app that runs your AI tool; viewport_screenshot needs none.
  • input_keyboard, input_mouse and gui_click bring Studio to the front on macOS before sending input, and doctor checks the macOS tools.
  • The Open Cloud key instructions now show a command for your system instead of always showing a Windows one.

0.6.12 2026-11-01

  • The Studio Bridge window has a new look: its own dark palette, a gradient header, a sliding tab bar, raised cards, colored stat tiles, a pulsing connection beacon, hover highlights on buttons and colored log lines.
  • The Studio Bridge window is easier to read: the connection pill and version no longer cut off, and Tools and Config use the same switch rows with the tool count and token cost on their own line.
  • The Status page now says in plain words whether your AI assistant is connected and what to do if it is not, and shows the latest activity with a link to the full log.
  • Run doctor shows its report as a colored card with a one-line verdict instead of plain text.

0.6.11 2026-11-01

  • The plugin source, the shared handler helpers and the script_get example handler are now commented, so it is easier to customize the plugin and add tools.
  • The websocket connection no longer wakes the plugin four times a second to check whether a heartbeat is due. It sleeps until the next heartbeat or until the connection closes.
  • The plugin no longer polls every 50 ms while it waits for a command to finish or for the connection to open. It sleeps until the result arrives, so commands return up to 50 ms sooner and Studio does less work while idle.
  • Config has a Run doctor button that shows the doctor report in the window. Needs the matching Studio Bridge program, so restart your AI tool after updating.

0.6.10 2026-10-31

  • New Config tab in the Studio Bridge window: switch update checks, automatic updates and signed-packs-only on or off without asking your AI or using the command line. It also shows the current tool groups with a shortcut to the Tools tab. Needs the matching Studio Bridge program, so restart your AI tool after updating.
  • When the port is already taken, serve now says what holds it (which Studio Bridge version, or another program) and how to find and stop it, instead of just failing. doctor says the same instead of a generic 401 warning, and install warns when an older server is still running. A running server now includes its version in the reply to an unauthorized request.
  • doctor no longer reports a failure for a plugin folder that is missing the plugin when another Studio plugin folder it checks has it (Linux with Vinegar writes to both).

0.6.8 2026-10-31

  • Added a project website at https://zrob407.github.io/studio-bridge/ with install steps, a searchable tool list, a comparison with other Roblox Studio MCP tools, Studio Bridge Pro and this changelog.
  • The Buy a license button now explains when the running Studio Bridge program is older than the plugin, and tells you to restart your AI tool, instead of saying it could not be reached.

0.6.7 2026-10-31

Added

  • Studio Bridge Pro: optional paid add-on packs. The first, Snapshots and diffs, saves part of a place, shows exactly what changed since, and rolls it back with an automatic safety snapshot first. The free program is unchanged. Pro has its own separate license in PRO-LICENSE.txt.
  • A Pro tab in the Studio Bridge window: paste a license key, press Activate, and the packs download automatically. A Buy a license button opens the checkout page.
  • studio-bridge pro activate, pro status and pro remove.
  • Packs are digitally signed in two tiers, free official and paid Pro. Unsigned third-party packs still load and are labeled as unverified. studio-bridge settings pack-trust verified loads only signed packs. A PRO or unverified badge shows on each pack's tool group, and doctor lists every pack.

Changed

  • The window screenshot tool is no longer offered where it cannot work (Linux without Hyprland, macOS), which also trims the tool list there.
  • A settings file that cannot be read now falls back to loading only signed packs, and a copy of the broken file is kept instead of being overwritten.
  • Pack timeouts are capped like every other tool.

Fixed

  • pro remove now exits with an error code when it fails.
  • The release source zip now includes every program file.

0.6.6 2026-10-30

  • Linux: the plugin is written to Vinegar's app data folder and to the Wine prefix, so Studio finds it either way.
  • Added npm run test:changed, which runs only the tests affected by your changes.

0.6.5 2026-10-30

  • Linux: the plugin goes into Vinegar's app data plugin folder.
  • doctor now checks that Studio Bridge is registered with your AI tool.

0.6.4 2026-10-30

  • Linux support through Wine (Vinegar and Grapejuice). This includes the work from 0.6.3, which was tagged but never published.
  • Hyprland support: Studio Bridge focuses the Studio window with hyprctl and takes window screenshots with grim.

0.6.2 2026-10-30

  • The Studio Bridge window was redone with themed tabs, tool group presets, and switches that are saved to the bridge.
  • The exe now has the Studio Bridge icon.
  • Files the bridge writes when run from source are no longer tracked.

0.6.1 2026-10-30

  • Added a logo and gave the Studio toolbar button its icon.
  • Rewrote the top of the README with everyday time-savers and what is new.

0.6.0 2026-10-30

  • Tool groups: clients can load only the tools they need. studio-bridge settings tools core offers just the 28 everyday tools and keeps the tool list small.

0.5.0 2026-10-30

  • Playtest control: character movement with pathfinding, plus keyboard and mouse input.
  • generate_model makes a model from a text prompt.
  • roblox_docs searches and reads the official Roblox documentation.

0.4.1 2026-10-30

  • Releases are now published to npm with Trusted Publishing and build provenance.
  • Trimmed the README license section.

0.4.0 2026-10-30

  • New tools for terrain, lighting and environment presets, scatter, raycasts, spatial queries, tags, tweens, physics groups and reports, audio, effects, assets, instances and scripts.
  • Animation authoring, editing and preview, and audio management.
  • ui_autoscale, ui_responsive_check and device_emulator to build GUIs that fit every device.
  • A Studio status window.
  • Fixes from a full review: a scan guard, release file lists, a tween timeout, probe cleanup, PrimaryPart pivots, design sizes, per-joint animation blending, typed bulk adjust, name escaping and scatter.

0.3.5 2026-10-30

  • Internal maintenance.

0.3.4 2026-10-30

  • Added a quick start, issue templates and npm keywords, and fixed backslashes that were dropped from paths in the README.

0.3.3 2026-10-29

  • A newer Studio Bridge server can now take over the port from an older one.

0.3.2 2026-10-29

  • Maintenance release. It includes the unpublished 0.3.1.

0.3.0 2026-10-29

  • npm package: install with npm install -g @zrob407/studio-bridge. It runs on Node, which Windows does not block the way it can block an unsigned exe.
  • OpenAI Codex CLI setup is included, with a conformance test. It has not been tried against Codex itself.
  • An old source install is carried over instead of starting from scratch.
  • Future releases moved to the Studio Bridge License (source-available, free for commercial games). Versions 0.2.3 and earlier stay available under the MIT License. The license also states that separate paid add-ons may exist.

0.2.3 2026-10-29

  • An update notice, a bridge_update tool, and opt-in auto-update.

0.2.2 2026-10-29

  • Fixed updating over a running exe that had a stale leftover copy.

0.2.1 2026-10-29

  • The release workflow now uses Node 24 action versions.

0.2.0 2026-10-29

First public release.

  • An MCP server and a Roblox Studio plugin that run commands inside Studio.
  • Every command runs in its own thread with a deadline, and results are retried so they survive a reconnect.
  • A batch tool that runs many edits in one call, with a WebSocket transport and an HTTP fallback.
  • A signed, hot-reloading plugin loader, and the plugin loads in play clients through the play server.
  • A single-file exe with a command line and an installer, plus an update command and update notice.
  • Tool definitions live in tools.json, and doctor checks the setup.
  • The server exits with a clear error when its port is already in use.
