# Project Roadmap
|
||
|
||
A living document outlining MCP for Unity's high-level goals, priorities, and planned features. It evolves with community feedback, technical discoveries, and shifting priorities.
|
||
|
||
For the deep-research **2026 Feature Roadmap** (per-tool API coverage analysis), see [Feature Roadmap 2026](/architecture/roadmap).
|
||
|
||
**Want to contribute or discuss?** See [How to Contribute or Provide Feedback](#how-to-contribute-or-provide-feedback).
|
||
|
||
## Overall Vision & Goals
|
||
|
||
The primary goal is to provide a robust, flexible, and easy-to-use bridge between the Unity Editor and external MCP clients (Claude Desktop, Cursor, and beyond).
|
||
|
||
Key objectives:
|
||
|
||
1. **Make onboarding effortless** — setting up the MCP server is a known pain point for the ecosystem and this project; we'll make it easier to get started.
|
||
2. **Improve speed & efficiency** — reduce latency and token usage for faster workflows.
|
||
3. **Expand integrations** — more MCP clients, better MCP server discovery, improved auth.
|
||
4. **Improve developer experience** — clean APIs, clearer docs, maintainable architecture.
|
||
5. **Align with real user needs** — prioritize community- and customer-driven improvements from feedback.
|
||
|
||
## Current Focus
|
||
|
||
Legend: **Feat** = feature, **Fix** = bug fix, **Imp** = improvement, **Doc** = docs, **Test** = tests, **Tech** = tech debt / refactor, **Arch** = architecture.
|
||
|
||
- **Doc** — Documentation overhaul to improve clarity, onboarding, and discoverability
|
||
- **Imp** — Per-call instance routing — target specific Unity instances on any tool call ([#772](https://github.com/CoplayDev/unity-mcp/pull/772))
|
||
- **Fix** — Code Coverage dependency guard for fresh installs ([#540](https://github.com/CoplayDev/unity-mcp/issues/540))
|
||
|
||
## Mid-Term Plans
|
||
|
||
Items aimed for further out. Details and priorities are less defined.
|
||
|
||
- **Feat** — Explore Runtime MCP Operation ([Discussion #781](https://github.com/CoplayDev/unity-mcp/discussions/781))
|
||
- **Feat** — Explore adding GenAI plugins for 2D and 3D assets ([Discussion #778](https://github.com/CoplayDev/unity-mcp/discussions/778))
|
||
- **Tech** — Re-evaluate script editing capabilities and consolidate
|
||
|
||
## Long-Term Ideas & Future Directions
|
||
|
||
Bigger ideas or major features further down the line (>6–9 months) or requiring significant research / design.
|
||
|
||
- **Arch** — Dependency Injection to improve testability
|
||
- **Feat** — Add more play mode functionality — support MCP during runtime with custom tools would let LLMs interact with user-created games / experiences
|
||
|
||
## Maybe / Icebox / Backlog
|
||
|
||
Suggested or considered but not currently planned. May be revisited later.
|
||
|
||
- Visual scripting integration (e.g., Bolt / PlayMaker)
|
||
- **Test** — Test coverage for Tools, networking, and ideally end-to-end
|
||
- **Imp** — Docker support for running the MCP server ([Discussion #776](https://github.com/CoplayDev/unity-mcp/discussions/776))
|
||
- **Imp** — Tool search / tool filtering to reduce context ([Discussion #777](https://github.com/CoplayDev/unity-mcp/discussions/777))
|
||
|
||
## Recently Completed
|
||
|
||
- **Feat** — Per-call `unity_instance` routing via tool arguments ([#772](https://github.com/CoplayDev/unity-mcp/pull/772)) — supersedes CLI flags approach
|
||
- **Feat** — HTTP Server Authentication ([#433](https://github.com/CoplayDev/unity-mcp/issues/433))
|
||
- **Feat** — Flag to make custom tools available globally or by project ([#416](https://github.com/CoplayDev/unity-mcp/issues/416))
|
||
- **Fix** — High resource costs when not in use ([#577](https://github.com/CoplayDev/unity-mcp/issues/577))
|
||
- **Imp** — Use MCP for Unity via the CLI ([#544](https://github.com/CoplayDev/unity-mcp/pull/544))
|
||
- **Imp** — OpenCode Support ([#498](https://github.com/CoplayDev/unity-mcp/pull/498))
