Full-text search across the Roblox Developer Forum. Use this first when a Roblox bug, error message, or engine behaviour needs community context: paste the literal error string (e.g. "502: API Services rejected request") or a symptom description. Results are re-ranked to favour solved and recent threads. Follow up with get_thread on the topic_id you want to read.

Search only the DevForum bug-report categories (engine, Studio, cloud services, mobile, website, Creator Hub, purchasing). Use this to answer "is this a known Roblox bug or is it my code?" — a hit means somebody reported the same symptom, with its category, last-activity date and whether a reply was marked as the solution. Roblox does not tag reports with a public triage state, so read the thread with get_thread to see whether staff actually answered.

Read a DevForum topic as Markdown: the original post plus the most useful replies, with the accepted answer hoisted to the top. Accepts a topic id or a full DevForum URL. Code blocks are preserved. Use get_replies to page through the rest.

Fetch a page of replies from a DevForum topic in post order. Use after get_thread when the answer is buried further down a long thread.

Browse a category or tag without a search query. Use release-notes / announcements to check whether a recent Roblox update explains a regression, or scripting-support to see what is breaking for others right now.

List the DevForum category tree and the most-used tags. Call this when you are unsure which category or tag slug to pass to search_devforum, search_bugs, or list_recent.

Find and read pages from Roblox's official creator documentation (create.roblox.com/docs). Call with query to list matching pages, then call again with path from a result to read that page in full. Use this for intended behaviour, limits and quotas, and guide-level explanations — pair it with search_devforum for what actually happens in production.

Batch-check Roblox APIs before you ship Luau that uses them. Pass entries like "Humanoid.MoveTo", "BodyVelocity" or "DataStoreService.GetDataStore" and each is verified against the live API dump: does it still exist, is it deprecated (with the official replacement where the docs give one), is it locked behind a security level normal scripts cannot use, and does it yield. Use this whenever you are about to write or review Roblox code — models often reproduce APIs that Roblox retired years ago.

Authoritative signature lookup from the live Roblox API dump: a class's properties, methods, events and callbacks with parameter types, security level, deprecation and thread safety. Use this to confirm a method exists, check whether it is deprecated or server-only, or find the right member name before writing Luau.

Read any Roblox Weekly Recap, current or historical. Roblox publishes one every Friday summarising what shipped that week: betas, engine updates, Marketplace and Studio changes. Use week to step back through the archive (0 = newest, 1 = the week before, …), before to jump to the recap covering a past date, or list to see the archive index. To find when a specific feature or regression landed, list the archive and read the recaps around that date.

A digest of recent Roblox platform changes: the official Weekly Recap, engine Release Notes, and Announcements. Use this when a game regressed for no obvious reason ("this worked last week"), when checking whether a Roblox update explains new behaviour, or when the user asks what is new on the platform. Returns the latest Weekly Recap body plus everything else published inside the time window.
