Object / Modify

How to Call

unity-mcp-cli run-tool object-modify --input '{
  "objectRef": "string_value",
  "objectDiff": "string_value"
}'

For complex input (multi-line strings, code), save the JSON to a file and use:

unity-mcp-cli run-tool object-modify --input-file args.json

Or pipe via stdin (recommended):

unity-mcp-cli run-tool object-modify --input-file - <<'EOF'
{"param": "value"}
EOF

Troubleshooting

If

unity-mcp-cli
is not found, either install it globally (
npm install -g unity-mcp-cli
) or use
npx unity-mcp-cli
instead. Read the /unity-initial-setup skill for detailed installation instructions.

Input

NameTypeRequiredDescription
objectRef
any
YesReference to UnityEngine.Object instance. It could be GameObject, Component, Asset, etc. Anything extended from UnityEngine.Object.
objectDiff
any
YesThe object data to apply. Should contain 'fields' and/or 'props' with the values to modify.
Only include the fields/properties you want to change.
Any unknown or invalid fields and properties will be reported in the response.
