FAQPage Schema
How do I install unity-mcp-cli for Unity MCP setup?▼

Install unity-mcp-cli globally with npm using npm install -g unity-mcp-cli, then verify with unity-mcp-cli --version. Alternatively, run any command without global installation using npx unity-mcp-cli.

How do I set up MCP for Claude Code in a Unity project?▼

Run unity-mcp-cli setup-mcp claude-code followed by your project path to write the MCP configuration. Use unity-mcp-cli setup-mcp --list to see all supported AI agents such as Cursor and Copilot.

What Node.js version does unity-mcp-cli require?▼

unity-mcp-cli requires Node.js ^20.19.0 or >=22.12.0, and Node 21.x is not supported. Verify your installation with node --version and npm --version before installing the CLI.

Why does unity-mcp-cli setup-skills fail to generate skill files?▼

Skill generation fails when the Unity Editor is not running with the MCP plugin installed and connected. Open the project in Unity Editor first, confirm the plugin is loaded, then rerun the setup-skills command.

Why is the Unity-MCP plugin not appearing in Unity after install-plugin?▼

After running install-plugin, you must open the project in Unity Editor so the package manager can resolve dependencies. The plugin becomes available once the project finishes loading.
