# Overview
|
|
|
|
MCP for Unity bridges AI assistants — Claude, Codex, VS Code, local LLMs, and more — with the Unity Editor via the [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/introduction). Give your LLM the tools to manage assets, control scenes, edit scripts, run tests, and automate workflows.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## What you get
|
|
|
|
- **40+ Unity Editor tools** exposed over MCP — `manage_scene`, `manage_script`, `manage_gameobject`, `manage_material`, `manage_physics`, `run_tests`, and more.
|
|
- **25+ read-only resources** for state introspection — `editor_state`, `gameobject_components`, `project_info`, `unity_instances`, etc.
|
|
- **Auto-configuration** for popular MCP clients — Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Cline, Codex, Qwen, Gemini CLI, Copilot CLI, OpenClaw.
|
|
- **Multi-instance support** — drive several Unity Editors from a single session via `set_active_instance`.
|
|
- **Two transports** — HTTP (multi-agent, default) and stdio (single-agent legacy).
|
|
|
|
## When you'd use it
|
|
|
|
- Prototype scenes and gameplay with natural language ("build a player controller with WASD and a double-jump").
|
|
- Generate and refactor C# scripts with full project context and validation.
|
|
- Automate repetitive editor tasks — bulk asset processing, scene validation, regression testing.
|
|
- Build custom AI-driven editor tools on top of the MCP protocol.
|
|
|
|
## Next steps
|
|
|
|
- **[Install](./install.md)** — Add the Unity package, install the Python server, and connect your first MCP client.
|
|
- **[Your First Prompt](./first-prompt.md)** — End-to-end "build me a red cube" tutorial.
|
|
- **[Choosing an MCP Client](./clients.md)** — A capability matrix across all supported clients.
|
|
- **Setup Wizard** *(coming soon)* — Walk through the first-run experience.
