Relationship to other Roku tooling

This toolkit is an automation and evidence layer for Codex. It is complementary to editor, build, debug, and publishing tools.

Capability	Roku Codex Toolkit	Roku Dev Studio / editor tooling	Roku platform tools and portal
BrightScript/SceneGraph editing and language features	Guidance only	Primary use case	Not primary
Build/package iteration	Release checks and agent workflows	Commonly integrated	Platform-defined packaging rules
Remote keypresses and ECP queries	Built in, bounded, agent-callable	May overlap through extensions	ECP defines the interface
Sideloading and screenshots	Built in with confirmation and artifact checks	Often overlaps	Developer mode provides endpoints
Runtime console capture and causal triage	Capture plus analysis workflow	Debug-console overlap	Device exposes the console
Repeatable UI flows	JSON scenarios and evidence reports	May offer manual/device controls	No claim of full UI automation
UI correctness	Requires assertions and/or human visual review	Human/debugger inspection	Certification and testing remain external
Channel publishing, certification, account management	Out of scope	Usually out of scope	Primary platform responsibility

The overlap is intentional where Codex needs a safe, scriptable primitive. The toolkit does not bundle or impersonate Roku services, replace certification, or claim that an ECP command succeeding means the displayed UI is correct.
