Tool access

Turn RoGenie's optional tools on or off for a session - playtesting, screenshots, asset generation, the Toolbox, sub-agents and more.

RoGenie has 62 optional tools in 10 groups: AI Generation, Toolbox & Assets, Verification, Editing & History, Build & Assets, Interaction, Research, Parallel & Analysis, Advanced Build, Blender. All of them are on by default. Tool access lets you switch any of them off, for example to stop RoGenie from inserting Toolbox models, taking screenshots or spawning sub-agents.

Open Tool access

Click the Tools button beside the message box. The Tool Access window shows each group with a switch per tool and a short description of what it does, and what RoGenie does instead when it is off.

  • Enable all and Disable all change every optional tool at once.
  • The button beside the message box shows how many tools are off, for example Tool access — 3 of 62 optional tools disabled this session.
Important

Tool access choices apply to the current session only: they are kept for this browser tab, survive a reload, and reset when you close the tab.

What switching a tool off does

RoGenie simply does not use that tool and works around it. For example:

  • Toolbox Search off: RoGenie builds from parts instead of inserting marketplace models.
  • AI Mesh Generation off: no AI meshes; RoGenie builds from primitives or the Toolbox.
  • Sub-Agents off: RoGenie does all the work in one agent.
  • Ask the User off: RoGenie does not pause to ask you questions.
  • Project & User Notes off: RoGenie saves no new notes. Notes already saved still load.

Core abilities, like reading your place, editing scripts, creating and changing instances and running Luau in Studio, are not optional and cannot be switched off. Switching off a shortcut tool such as Terrain or Lighting does not stop that kind of work: RoGenie can still do it with Luau. To make RoGenie change nothing at all, use Plan mode.

Tools that need the RoGenie Bridge

The AI Generation group (AI models, meshes, materials, procedural models and image uploads) uses Roblox's AI through the RoGenie Bridge on your PC. When the Bridge is not connected, the window says so and offers Download / Connect Bridge, and those tools are unavailable whatever their switches say.

The Blender group (Blender Control) also needs the Bridge, plus Blender open on the same PC; its tools appear only while Blender is connected. See Blender.

Playtesting

Runtime playtesting has its own switch in Agent settings: Playtest verification. Turning it off skips runtime playtests to save tokens; static checks (compile, validation, scans) still run.

Every tool

The full list, with what each tool does, is in the Tool reference.
