# Gameobject Find

> Find a specific GameObject in the opened Prefab (preferred when present) or the active Scene. Optionally include editable data, components preview, bounds, and limited hierarchy. Supports token-saving path-scoped reads via `paths` or `viewQuery`.

## Install

```sh
agentstack add skill-ivanmurzak-unity-mcp-gameobject-find
```

Requires the [AgentStack CLI](https://agentstack.voostack.com/docs/cli). Works with Claude Code, Cursor, and any MCP-compatible agent.

## About

# GameObject / Find

Finds specific GameObject by provided information in opened Prefab or in a Scene. First it looks for the opened Prefab, if any Prefab is opened it looks only there ignoring a scene. If no opened Prefab it looks into current active scene. Returns GameObject information and its children. Also, it returns Components preview just for the target GameObject.

## Toggles (all default `false` to keep responses small)

- `includeData` — full editable GameObject data (tag, layer, etc.).
- `includeComponents` — attached components references.
- `includeBounds` — 3D bounds.
- `includeHierarchy` — hierarchy metadata.
- `hierarchyDepth` (default 0) — depth of the hierarchy to include. `0` = target only, `1` = one layer below, etc.

## Path-scoped reads (token-saving)

Supply `paths` (a list of paths) to read only the listed fields/elements via `Reflector.TryReadAt`, or `viewQuery` (a `ViewQuery`) to navigate to a subtree and/or filter by name regex / max depth / type via `Reflector.View`. When either is supplied, the result populates `Data` on the returned `GameObjectData` and overrides `includeData` (which would otherwise produce a full recursive serialization). These two parameters are mutually exclusive — supply at most one.

## Path syntax

`fieldName`, `nested/field`, `arrayField/[i]`, `dictField/[key]`. Leading `#/` is stripped.

## How to Call

```bash
unity-mcp-cli run-tool gameobject-find --input '{
  "gameObjectRef": "string_value",
  "includeData": false,
  "includeComponents": false,
  "includeBounds": false,
  "includeHierarchy": false,
  "hierarchyDepth": 0,
  "paths": "string_value",
  "viewQuery": "string_value"
}'
```

> For complex input (multi-line strings, code), save the JSON to a file and use:
> ```bash
> unity-mcp-cli run-tool gameobject-find --input-file args.json
> ```
>
> Or pipe via stdin (recommended):
> ```bash
> unity-mcp-cli run-tool gameobject-find --input-file -  {"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 |
|------|------|----------|-------------|
| `gameObjectRef` | `any` | Yes | Find GameObject in opened Prefab or in the active Scene. |
| `includeData` | `boolean` | No | Include editable GameObject data (tag, layer, etc). |
| `includeComponents` | `boolean` | No | Include attached components references. |
| `includeBounds` | `boolean` | No | Include 3D bounds of the GameObject. |
| `includeHierarchy` | `boolean` | No | Include hierarchy metadata. |
| `hierarchyDepth` | `integer` | No | Determines the depth of the hierarchy to include. 0 - means only the target GameObject. 1 - means to include one layer below. |
| `paths` | `any` | No | Optional. List of paths to read individually via Reflector.TryReadAt. When supplied, replaces 'includeData'-style full serialization with a path-scoped aggregate. Path syntax: 'fieldName', 'nested/field', 'arrayField/[i]', 'dictField/[key]'. Mutually exclusive with 'viewQuery'. |
| `viewQuery` | `any` | No | Optional. View-query filter routed through Reflector.View. When supplied, replaces 'includeData'-style full serialization with the filtered subtree. Mutually exclusive with 'paths'. |
