How does this skill interact with the Unity Editor?

It uses the unity-cli tool to send commands to the Unity Editor, allowing Claude to fetch console logs, find GameObjects, and inspect components in real-time.

Can it help fix NullReferenceExceptions?

Yes, it specifically identifies the file and line number of the error and then inspects the scene to see which specific object or reference is missing.

How does it handle very large Unity projects?

The skill utilizes token-saving strategies such as limiting the depth of hierarchy searches and filtering console logs to only show relevant error entries.

Does it work while the game is running?

Yes, it is designed for runtime debugging and can capture the state of the game, including screenshots and variable values, during Play Mode.

Game Development

Automates Unity runtime error investigation by analyzing console logs, scene hierarchies, and component states via the command line.

About

The unity-debug skill provides a structured workflow for identifying and resolving Unity runtime errors directly within Claude Code. By leveraging unity-cli, it allows developers to capture stack traces, classify common exceptions like NullReference or MissingComponent, and inspect the live scene hierarchy without leaving the terminal. This skill bridges the gap between AI reasoning and the Unity Editor's internal state, enabling faster bug reproduction and evidence-based fixes through automated context gathering and visual state recording.
