Getting Started

ScriptSense is designed to be “add it and forget it.”

Once installed, you can simply open a script and ScriptSense will surface useful project info automatically (code health, tasks, unused variables, broken paths, and more). The terminal / command palette is optional.


Install

  1. Open the ScriptSense asset page and add it to your inventory: ScriptSense on the Creator Store

  2. In Roblox Studio, install it from either:

    • Your inventory (Plugins → Manage Plugins / My Plugins), or
    • Toolbox → Plugins tab → find ScriptSense → install
  3. That’s it.


First Use

  1. Open any script (Script / LocalScript / ModuleScript).
  2. ScriptSense will show a widget with live insights like:
    • Code health
    • Tasks (TODO/FIXME/HACK)
    • Unused variables
    • Broken paths / dependency issues
    • Other project signals depending on what’s available

You don’t need to run a command for this.


Optional: Open the Command Palette / Terminal

If you do want to use commands:

  • Open the Plugins section in the Studio toolbar and open ScriptSense’s palette/terminal from there.

Some useful first commands:

  • help — list commands / get help for one command
  • scan — scan for issues and dead code
  • tasks — open the Tasks hub
  • docs — open this documentation
  • theme — change theme presets / tweak UI colors

Troubleshooting

I installed it, but nothing shows up

  • Try opening a script first and add something like getfenv() (ScriptSense reacts to an active script).
  • Make sure the plugin is enabled in Studio (Plugin Management).

The terminal isn’t showing

  • The terminal is optional. ScriptSense features still work without it.
  • Open it from the Studio toolbar’s Plugins section.
