Stud

Stud is an open-source AI coding assistant specifically designed for Roblox developers. It provides a terminal-based interface that enables natural language coding powered by AI, allowing developers to describe what they want and receive production-ready Luau code. The tool integrates deeply with Roblox Studio, offering 27+ specialized tools for editing scripts, manipulating instances, querying DataStores, and searching the Toolbox.
