Agent skill
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.

GameObject / Find
How to Call
unity-mcp-cli run-tool gameobject-find --input '{
"gameObjectRef": "string_value",
"includeData": false,
"includeComponents": false,
"includeBounds": false,
"includeHierarchy": false,
"hierarchyDepth": 0
}'
For complex input (multi-line strings, code), save the JSON to a file and use:
bashunity-mcp-cli run-tool gameobject-find --input-file args.jsonOr pipe via stdin (recommended):
bashunity-mcp-cli run-tool gameobject-find --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 |
|---|---|---|---|
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. |
