Roblox Asset Pipeline

Goal

Choose assets that fit the game fantasy, load reliably, and stay within mobile performance budgets.

Selection Order

1. Search existing assets with search_asset.
2. Before inserting Creator Store or third-party model/package assets, plan a roblox-creator-store-security-audit pass.
3. Insert selected assets with insert_asset.
4. Generate custom meshes with generate_mesh only when existing assets do not fit.
5. Generate custom materials with generate_material for unique surface treatments.
6. Generate procedural models with generate_procedural_model when configurable primitive-based models are useful.
7. Use store_image or upload_image for local or web images that need to become Roblox assets.

Cross-Owner Caution

When an inventory asset belongs to a different owner than the current place, ask for explicit user consent before inserting it. Name the source owner and destination.

Security Audit Requirement

Creator Store and third-party model/package imports can include scripts. After inserting any third-party model, package, UI, gameplay asset, or plugin-like asset, use roblox-creator-store-security-audit before trusting it or leaving its scripts enabled. Prefer visual-only assets when possible. Treat obfuscated code, suspicious require calls, dynamic asset loading, HTTP usage, DataStore mutation, remote creation, hidden scripts, and deceptive names as high risk.

Art Direction

• Keep a consistent silhouette language, scale, color palette, and material style.
• Make important interactables visually louder than background props.
• Design icons and thumbnails for click clarity at small sizes.
• Avoid dark, noisy, or over-detailed first-area assets that obscure gameplay.

Performance Budgets

• Prefer low-to-moderate poly meshes for mobile.
• Watch texture size, transparency, particles, dynamic lighting, and physics complexity.
• Anchor decorative props unless they must simulate.
• Convert repeated decorative objects into cheaper reusable patterns where possible.
• Run performance review for large asset drops.

MCP Workflow

1. Search or generate the asset.
2. Insert third-party assets into a controlled quarantine folder or workspace location.
3. Inspect with inspect_instance.
4. Run an import security audit for third-party model/package/gameplay/UI assets.
5. Use screen_capture for visual fit.
6. Playtest if the asset affects collision, navigation, UI, or interaction.
7. Check get_console_output.

Output

Return:

• Asset source or generation method.
• Placement and ownership notes.
• Security audit result for third-party imports.
• Visual-fit notes.
• Performance risks.
• Verification performed.

Audit any imported third-party asset with roblox-creator-store-security-audit before trusting it, and check its cost with roblox-performance-optimization.
