What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps developers avoid common pitfalls related to Unity's script execution order, initialization timing, and object destruction, preventing bugs like MissingReferenceException and ensuring predictable behavior in builds.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Lifecycle Correctness: Understand and apply patterns for Awake, Start, OnEnable, OnDisable, OnDestroy, and OnApplicationQuit.
  • Editor vs. Runtime: Differentiate and correctly use editor-only callbacks like OnValidate and [ExecuteAlways].
  • Async Safety: Safely handle asynchronous operations within the Unity lifecycle using destroyCancellationToken.
  • Use Case: Prevent a common bug where a script tries to access a GameManager instance that hasn't been initialized yet by correctly ordering script execution.

Quick Start

Use the unity-lifecycle skill to understand the correct pattern for subscribing to events using OnEnable and OnDisable.
