Before calling any skill in this module: if you are about to call a skill with parameters guessed from its name or description, STOP — read this file (or fetch its schema via GET /skills/recommend?includeSchema=true) first. If you already have the parameter definitions from recommend/schema, you may proceed straight to dryRun.

Triggers

• Opening or saving scenes
• Loading additively
• Switching active scene
• Querying scene contents
• 打开或保存场景、叠加加载、切换活动场景、查询场景内容

Unity Scene Skills

Control Unity scenes - the containers that hold all your GameObjects.

Operating Mode

• Approval：本模块 Mixed —— scene_get_info / scene_get_hierarchy / scene_get_loaded / scene_find_objects 标 SkillMode.SemiAuto，可直接执行；scene_screenshot / scene_unload / scene_set_active 未设 Mode 字段（默认 FullAuto），Approval 模式下需 grant。
• Auto / Bypass：FullAuto 直接执行。
• 含 NeverInSemi 高危 skill：scene_create / scene_load / scene_save（标 RiskLevel="high"，因为切换/覆盖整个场景文件影响范围极大）。这些在 Approval/Auto 下返 MODE_FORBIDDEN，仅 Bypass 或 Allowlist 命中可调。

DO NOT (common hallucinations):

• scene_delete / scene_rename do not exist → delete scene files via asset_delete, rename via asset_move
• scene_list does not exist → use scene_get_loaded (loaded scenes) or asset_find with t:Scene (all scene assets)
• scene_find_objects is a simple name/tag/component filter; for regex/layer/path search use gameobject_find (SkillMode.FullAuto)

Routing:

• For detailed hierarchy tree → use perception module's hierarchy_describe
• For scene statistics → use perception module's scene_summarize
• For screenshot → scene_screenshot (this module) captures the Game View final composited image (all cameras + UI; in Play mode this is the live runtime frame); camera_screenshot (camera module, SkillMode.FullAuto) renders a single Game Camera off-screen

Skills Overview

Skills

scene_create

Create a new scene.

scene_load

Load a scene.

scene_save

Save the current scene.

scene_get_info

Get current scene information.

No parameters.

Returns: {success, name, path, isDirty, rootObjectCount, rootObjects: [name]}

scene_get_hierarchy

Get full scene hierarchy tree.

Returns: {success, hierarchy: [{name, instanceId, children: [...]}]}

scene_screenshot

Capture a screenshot of the Game View — the final composited frame of all cameras + UI. In Play mode this is the live runtime image, not the Scene/editor view. For a single Game Camera's render use camera_screenshot instead.

Returns: {success, path, width, height, isPlaying, note}. isPlaying indicates whether the frame is a live runtime image (Play mode) or a static Edit-mode frame. Adds {imageBase64, imageWidth, imageHeight, imageBytes} when returnImage=true. If the base64 payload would exceed 8MB, the skill returns an error asking for a smaller maxDimension — the file at path is still saved.

Async: ScreenCapture.CaptureScreenshot writes the PNG ~1 frame later. If reading path immediately fails, wait ~200ms and retry. returnImage does not read that file back — since it isn't written yet — it instead does a separate synchronous capture of the Game View's current backbuffer (ScreenCapture.CaptureScreenshotAsTexture), so the returned image may be a moment older than the file eventually written to path.

returnImage usage tip: a local agent that can read files (e.g. Claude Code against a local Unity Editor) should generally omit returnImage and just read the PNG at path once it's written — it's cheaper on tokens. Use returnImage=true for remote/MCP clients that have no filesystem access to the Unity project.

scene_get_loaded

Get list of all currently loaded scenes.

No parameters.

Returns: {success, scenes: [{name, path, isActive, isDirty}]}

scene_unload

Unload a loaded scene (additive).

scene_set_active

Set the active scene (for multi-scene editing).

scene_find_objects

Search GameObjects by name pattern, tag, or component type. For advanced search (regex, layer, path) use gameobject_find.

Returns: {success, count, objects: [{name, path, instanceId, active, tag}]}

Example Usage

import unity_skills
# Create a new scene
unity_skills.call_skill("scene_create", scenePath="Assets/Scenes/Level1.unity")
# Load an existing scene
unity_skills.call_skill("scene_load", scenePath="Assets/Scenes/MainMenu.unity")
# Load scene additively (multi-scene)
unity_skills.call_skill("scene_load", scenePath="Assets/Scenes/UI.unity", additive=True)
# Get current scene info
info = unity_skills.call_skill("scene_get_info")
print(f"Scene: {info['name']}, Objects: {info['rootObjectCount']}")
# Get full hierarchy (useful for understanding scene structure)
hierarchy = unity_skills.call_skill("scene_get_hierarchy", maxDepth=5)
# Save scene
unity_skills.call_skill("scene_save")
# Take screenshot
unity_skills.call_skill("scene_screenshot", filename="preview.png", width=1920, height=1080)

Best Practices

1. Always save before loading a new scene
2. Use additive loading for UI overlays
3. Keep scene hierarchy organized with empty parent objects
4. Use scene_get_info to verify scene state
5. Screenshots are saved under Assets/Screenshots/ (filename is a bare name; any path separators are stripped)

Exact Signatures

Exact names, parameters, defaults, and returns are defined by GET /skills/schema or unity_skills.get_skill_schema(), not by this file.
