Some tools missing in the add tools menu for the custom ribbons

I am trying to set up some custom ribbon tabs for Studio, but I’ve run into the issue that some of the tools don’t seem to pop up in the “add tools” menu. For example, the snap to grid controls that are on the built in home tab don’t show up when you search snap, or any other keyword for that matter.

While they don’t show up when you search for them, they do exist as shown in these two replies

is there some list or API out there can contains ALL of the tools that you can put in the custom ribbons, or do I just need to guess the names of the tools I want. (The snap controls were “MoveGridSize” and “RotateGridSize”, neither of which bring up anything when searched either)

The “Add Tools” UI is limited to icon buttons for now. To do anything more complex, you’ll need to dig into the JSON. Here’s the most recent documentation (which it looks you’ve found):

This is mostly still correct but we should do an updated version on the official docs site soon. In the meantime, the fastest path is to duplicate a tab (right click on the tab) and start tinkering with the resulting copy. Or you can find some community created tabs as a starting point:
