The Plugin Window
After this page you will be able to read every control and every message in the Revix window inside Studio, and know what each one is telling you.
Opening it
The button lives in the Plugins tab of the Studio ribbon, in a toolbar group called Revix, on a button labelled Revix. Hovering it shows the tooltip Connect to Revix AI.
Click it and a small floating window appears. It is about 380 by 260 pixels and you can drag or dock it wherever you like.
The window title reads Revix Dev. That is just the window's name — you have the normal plugin.
Once you have connected successfully at least once, the window opens by itself the next time you start Studio. The very first time, you have to click the toolbar button yourself. Pressing Play hides it; pressing Stop brings it back.
Version
The version sits on its own in the bottom-right corner: v7.2.
If yours is lower, update from the Creator Store. There is no update banner anywhere in the window, so that corner is the only place to check.
The window follows your Studio theme. On a light Studio it is light; on a dark one, dark. If you switch themes with the window open it repaints immediately.
Status
One word plus a coloured dot:
| Dot | Word | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Red | Disconnected | Not connected. Also what you see when a connection attempt fails |
| Amber | Connecting... | A connection attempt is in flight |
| Green | Connected | Live. You can send messages from the dashboard |
While connected, two more lines appear underneath:
- The place and script count — e.g.
Crossroads · 128 scripts. This is what Revix can currently see, so if the number looks wrong, your place has not finished syncing Open dashboard →— clicking it opens the dashboard in your browser
Both are hidden when you are not connected. A third line, · periodic sync, appears on the place line only in very large places (over 3,000 scripts), where the plugin stops watching every script individually and re-reads the place every couple of minutes instead.
Buttons
- Connect (blue) — shown when you are not connected
- Disconnect (red) — shown when you are connected
Pressing Disconnect is a deliberate off switch: nothing will reconnect you until you press Connect again. Everything else — a cold Studio start, a dropped network, the end of a playtest — reconnects on its own.
The working line
A line with a gently pulsing dot appears above the buttons while something is happening. It shows one of:
AI is working...Connecting...Connecting (revix.tech)...Executing 3 command(s)...— the number is however many pieces of work Studio was just handed
It disappears when the batch finishes. On a large build it can sit there for a while; that is normal, and the chat in your browser is the place to watch actual progress.
Export selection
Under the Connect/Disconnect button sits Export selection, which reads Exporting... while it runs. It sends whatever you have selected in the Explorer to the Revix team for their shared asset library. Most people never need it.
The line underneath is one of:
Nothing selected — select instances in Explorer firstConnect to Revix first to exportExported 12 instances — add it in admin ToolboxExport failed:followed by the reason
The message clears itself after a few seconds.
What is deliberately not in the window
Do not go looking for these — they do not exist:
- Your Roblox username
- Your credit balance
- A "last synced" time
- An update or version warning banner
- A force resync button
Your balance and your build progress live in the dashboard at /dashboard. For getting Revix to re-read your place, see How Your Place Syncs.
Messages in the Output window
The plugin also prints to Studio's Output window. These are the ones worth recognising:
| Message | What it means |
|---|---|
Connected and synced (revix.tech). | Everything worked |
Connected but sync failed | Connected, but your scripts did not upload. Disconnect and connect again |
Connection lost (...). Reconnecting... | Your session expired. It is already retrying |
Command polling is unstable; retrying without disconnecting. | Rough network. It is staying connected on purpose |
Heartbeat is unstable; staying connected and retrying. | Same — no action needed |
Failed to connect. | Nothing accepted the connection. Check the causes in Connecting Studio |
Already connected. / Disconnected. | You pressed a button |
A line reading 403 Forbidden after a connect attempt almost always means your plugin is too old. A 401 Unauthorized means the Roblox account Studio is signed into is not linked to a Revix account.
