Why roblox_script needs a policy

While this tool includes read (read scripts) and write (create, update scripts) capabilities, the explicit execute action on Lua scripts elevates it to Execute category. Executing arbitrary Lua in Roblox Studio can manipulate game state, modify instances, trigger game logic, and interact with the Roblox API in ways dependent on script arguments. This is more severe than simple data modification.

From the tool's definition Tool description explicitly states 'execute Lua scripts in Roblox Studio' and provides capability to 'create, read, update' scripts.

POLICY

How to control roblox_script

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Roblox Studio MCP, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for roblox_script:

policy.json

{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "roblox_script": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "roblox_script_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 10,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

roblox_script stays usable, but rate-capped — a runaway agent can't fire it dozens of times a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.

Create a free account and register Roblox Studio MCP — nothing to install.
Add this policy — paste it, or build it visually.
Point your MCP client (Claude, Cursor, anything) at your gateway URL.
