FAQPage Schema
How do I test if unity-mcp-cli is working?▼

Run the ping system tool with an optional message parameter. If the CLI is installed and connected, it echoes your message back, or returns 'pong' when no message is provided.

How to pass complex JSON input to the ping tool?▼

Save the JSON to a file and use the --input-file flag, or pipe it via stdin with --input-file - and a heredoc. This avoids shell escaping issues with multi-line strings or code.

What should I do if unity-mcp-cli is not found?▼

Install it globally with npm install -g unity-mcp-cli, or prefix commands with npx unity-mcp-cli. The unity-initial-setup skill contains detailed installation instructions.

What does the ping tool return when no message is given?▼

It returns the string 'pong' in the result field of the JSON output. When a message is supplied, that message is echoed back instead.
