Show HN: Roxlit – Open-source launcher that connects AI tools to Roblox Studio

I built Roxlit because setting up AI coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf) for Roblox development is a 2-hour process that nobody should have to repeat. Install Aftman, install Rojo, configure project files, write AI context docs, set up file sync, configure MCP. Every new project, same thing.

Roxlit is a Tauri app (Rust + React) that does all of that in one click. You pick your AI tool, point it at your project folder, and it sets up everything. After that first setup it becomes your daily launcher: one click to start Rojo, open your editor, and see live sync logs.

The part I spent the most time on: 7 AI context packs that teach the AI how to actually write correct Roblox code. Without context, Claude and Cursor write deprecated APIs ('wait()' instead of 'task.wait()'), skip server validation, ignore strict typing. The context packs fix most of that. Not all, but most.

Tech stack: Tauri v2, React/TypeScript frontend, Rust backend. Builds with GitHub Actions, ships a Windows x64 installer. No code signing certificate yet so Windows SmartScreen will flag it.

It's MIT licensed. The plan is to keep the tool free forever and eventually sell pre-built game modules/templates through a marketplace. Free knowledge, paid time-savers.

Windows only for now. Happy to answer questions about the architecture, the AI context approach, or Roblox development tooling in general.
