Can this skill start Unity Play mode remotely?

Yes, using the Play action, it can start the game in the Unity Editor or resume it if it was previously paused.

How does this help with AI-driven development?

It allows Claude to verify if code changes work in real-time by running the game and checking for runtime errors or state changes without user intervention.

Does this work with game engines other than Unity?

No, this skill is specifically designed for the Unity Editor as part of the uLoopMCP plugin suite.

What information does the skill return after an action?

The skill returns a JSON object containing the current play status (IsPlaying), the pause status (IsPaused), and a descriptive message of the action performed.

Game Development

Manages the Unity Editor play state directly from the command line to automate game testing and debugging cycles.

About

The uloop-control-play-mode skill enables Claude to programmatically interact with the Unity Editor's execution state. It allows for starting, stopping, and pausing play mode, facilitating seamless automated testing and debugging workflows within Unity projects. This is particularly useful for AI-driven development where the agent needs to verify code changes by running the game or inspecting specific states during runtime without manual intervention, effectively bridging the gap between code edits and runtime verification.
