before you install - you'll need

Set UNITY_VERSION, UNITY_PROJECT_PATH before connecting.

Claude Code

claude mcp add codeturion-unity-api-mcp -- uvx unity-api-mcp

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "codeturion-unity-api-mcp": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "unity-api-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.

license MIT - declared in the repository

pypi package unity-api-mcp - check the name against the project README before installing (PyPI has no namespace ownership)

registry namespace io.github.Codeturion is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner
