package-add

package-add is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from IvanMurzak/Unity-MCP. It costs 68 tokens per session (659 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A Unity Package Manager operation that installs a package from Unity’s registry, a Git repository, or a local folder. It updates the project’s manifest file and waits for Unity to finish resolving the package.

In plain words
What is it for?
Adding packages by ID, pinned version, Git URL, or local path, then reporting whether Unity installed the package successfully.
Why use it?
It removes the need to edit package configuration by hand and accounts for Unity’s reload after installation.

About the project

Unity-MCP connects AI coding agents to the Unity game engine through MCP, letting them work with the Unity Editor and running games. It is used by game developers to generate code, automate development and testing, debug projects, and add AI-driven behavior to games. The catalogue entries provide skills, instructions, an MCP integration, and settings for operating this workflow.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

package-add scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 4d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 74 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Package Manager / Add

Install a package from the Unity Package Manager registry, Git URL, or local path. This operation modifies the project's manifest.json and triggers package resolution. Note: Package installation may trigger a domain reload. The result will be sent after the reload completes. Use 'package-search' tool to search for packages and 'package-list' to list installed packages.

packageId formats

  • Plain package ID: com.unity.textmeshpro (installs latest compatible version).
  • Pinned version: [email protected].
  • Git URL: https://github.com/user/repo.git.
  • Git URL with branch/tag: https://github.com/user/repo.git#v1.0.0.
  • Local path: file:../MyPackage.

Processing model

Returns Processing immediately with the supplied requestId. Once Client.Add completes, a follow-up result is delivered: success → SchedulePostDomainReloadNotification (delivers after the reload finishes), failure → an immediate error notification with the underlying Unity error message.

How to Call

unity-mcp-cli run-tool package-add --input '{
  "packageId": "string_value"
}'

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

unity-mcp-cli run-tool package-add --input-file args.json

Or pipe via stdin (recommended):

unity-mcp-cli run-tool package-add --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

Name Type Required Description
packageId string Yes The package ID to install. Formats: Package ID 'com.unity.textmeshpro' (installs latest compatible version), Package ID with version '[email protected]', Git URL 'https://github.com/user/repo.git', Git URL with branch/tag 'https://github.com/user/repo.git#v1.0.0', Local path 'file:../MyPackage'.

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
