GDScript FAQs

Question 1

Can it analyze both single files and entire Godot projects?

Accepted Answer

Yes, GDScript supports both. You can analyze individual GDScript files or even direct code snippets. Additionally, by setting a project root, it can perform project-wide analysis, including finding references to symbols across multiple files.

Question 2

What specific information can GDScript extract from code?

Accepted Answer

It extracts a comprehensive range of information, including file structure (classes, functions, signals, variables, enums) with line numbers, specific symbol definitions, their types and locations, and all dependencies like `extends`, `preload`, and `import` statements.

Question 3

Is GDScript suitable for large Godot codebases?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. GDScript is designed for efficiency, optimized to extract essential code context without requiring AI to read entire files. This makes it particularly effective for managing and understanding large, complex Godot projects.

Question 4

What is GDScript (mcp-gdscript) and its primary purpose?

Accepted Answer

GDScript (mcp-gdscript) is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides AI assistants with highly efficient GDScript code analysis. Its primary purpose is to extract detailed code structure, symbols, and dependencies, allowing AI to understand GDScript codebases without processing entire files.

Question 5

How does GDScript improve AI understanding of Godot projects?

Accepted Answer

By breaking down GDScript files into a structured, machine-readable format, GDScript enables AI assistants to efficiently identify classes, functions, signals, variables, enums, and dependencies. This contextual understanding helps AI perform tasks like code navigation, review, and refactoring more accurately.
