Openclaw Unity Skill

Control Unity Editor via OpenClaw Unity Plugin. Use for Unity game development tasks including scene management, GameObject/Component manipulation, debugging, input simulation, and Play mode control — including arbitrary C# execution (script.execute) and reflection-based editor calls, which can modify scenes, assets, and settings. Use only in trusted local projects; destructive operations (delete, save, package install, code execution) should be confirmed with the user. Triggers on explicit Unity Editor requests like inspecting scenes, creating objects, taking screenshots, testing gameplay, or controlling the Editor.

Unity Plugin Skill

Control Unity Editor through ~100 built-in tools. Works in both Editor and Play mode.

Connection Modes

1. OpenClaw Gateway (Remote)

For Telegram, Discord, and other OpenClaw channels:

• Auto-connects when Unity opens
• Configure in: Window → OpenClaw Plugin → Settings

2. MCP Bridge (Local)

For Claude Code, Cursor, and local AI tools:

• Start: Window → OpenClaw Plugin → MCP Bridge → Start
• Default port: 27182
• Add to Claude Code: claude mcp add unity -- node <path>/MCP~/index.js

First-Time Setup

If unity_execute tool is not available, install the gateway extension:

bash

# From skill directory
./scripts/install-extension.sh

# Restart gateway
openclaw gateway restart

The extension files are in extension/ directory.

What install-extension.sh Does

bash

# 1. Copies extension files from skill to gateway
#    Source: <skill>/extension/
#    Destination: ~/.openclaw/extensions/unity/

# 2. Files installed:
#    - index.ts     # Extension entry point (HTTP handlers, tools)
#    - package.json # Extension metadata

# After installation, restart gateway to load the extension.

unity://editor/state	Editor state
unity://console/logs	Console logs
unity://session/info	Session info

Tips

Screenshot Modes

• Play mode: ScreenCapture - includes all UI overlays
• Editor mode: Camera.main.Render() - no overlay UI
• Use {method: "camera"} for camera-only capture

Finding Objects

text

gameobject.find {name: "Player"}           # By exact name
gameobject.find {tag: "Enemy"}             # By tag
gameobject.find {componentType: "Camera"}  # By component
gameobject.getAll {activeOnly: true}       # All active objects

Script Recompilation

Unity may not auto-recompile after code changes. Use:

text

editor.refresh    # Full asset refresh + recompile

Play Mode Transitions

• Plugin survives Play mode transitions via SessionState
• If connection lost, wait for auto-reconnect or use Window → OpenClaw Plugin → Settings → Connect

MCP Bridge Usage

For Claude Code / Cursor integration:

1. Start: Window → OpenClaw Plugin → MCP Bridge → Start
2. Register: claude mcp add unity -- node /path/to/MCP~/index.js
3. Verify: curl http://127.0.0.1:27182/status

Input Simulation Limitation

Keyboard/mouse simulation works for UI interactions but NOT for Input.GetKey(). For gameplay testing:

• Use transform.setPosition to move objects directly
• Or migrate to Unity's new Input System

Troubleshooting

Issue	Solution
Tool timeout	Check Unity is responding, try editor.getState
Gateway no connection	Check Window → OpenClaw Plugin → Settings
MCP no connection	Start MCP Bridge, verify port 27182
Scripts not updating	Use editor.refresh to force recompile
Wrong screenshot	Use Play mode for game view with UI
MCP 504 timeout	Unity busy or MCP Bridge not started
Test Runner not found	Install com.unity.test-framework package

Security & Privacy Disclosure

This skill drives a live Unity Editor — treat it like giving a collaborator editor access. Full disclosure of capabilities:

• Arbitrary code execution (by design): script.execute compiles and runs C# inside the Unity process, and several tools use reflection to reach editor internals. This is the core of editor automation — it also means the skill can do anything the editor can. Only use in trusted, version-controlled projects. Ask the user to review C# snippets before running code they didn't write.
• Destructive operations — confirm with the user before: deleting GameObjects/assets, saving scenes/projects, installing packages, simulating keyboard/mouse input, running script.execute.
• Package installation: Git-based package installs import external, unvetted code into the project. Verify the source URL with the user first.
• Metadata: the connection handshake includes machine name and process ID (used to route messages to the right editor instance). No other host information is collected or transmitted.
• Network surface: MCP bridge listens on localhost port 27182. Keep it bound to localhost; do not expose the port beyond the local machine or a trusted network.
• Safety defaults: disableModelInvocation: true is set — the model cannot auto-invoke this skill; it runs only on explicit user request. Keep project backups / source control current before automation sessions.
