description
Create and modify Blueprint assets, variables, functions, components, event dispatchers, and interfaces. Use when the user asks to create a Blueprint/BP, add a variable or component to a Blueprint, make an event dispatcher/delegate, implement a Blueprint interface, or inspect a Blueprint's class/components. For node-level graph wiring, also load blueprint-graphs.
🧠 Brains complement: IF an unreal-engine-skills-manager tool (external MCP) exists in this session, call it with {action: "load", skill: "blueprint-fundamentals"} for UE domain knowledge on this topic — correct APIs, architecture, best practices — and treat it as the rubric for any review / "best practices" question. If no such tool is available (e.g. running under Claude Code or Codex without that MCP), skip this line entirely and proceed with this skill alone — do NOT attempt the call.
Blueprint System Skill
For node-level graph editing (adding nodes, connecting pins, wiring logic, timers, layout), load the blueprint-graphs skill.
Critical Rules
⚠️ Engine BlueprintTools args are {refPath} objects, NOT strings
Every UObject/UClass argument to the engine BlueprintTools toolset (blueprint, asset_type,
graph, parent_class, …) is a reference object{"refPath": "<object path>"}, and these tools
return the same shape. Passing a plain string fails with
"<x> is not a valid object path for property '<arg>'". This rule is only for the engine
BlueprintToolscall_tool path — VibeUE's own unreal.BlueprintService.* Python methods still take
plain string paths.
The refPath must be the full object path — /Game/Dir/Asset.Asset (the asset name repeated
after the dot). A bare package path (/Game/Dir/Asset, no .Asset) is rejected. Two safe ways
to get one:
# (a) Reuse what create/load returns — it is already a {refPath} object:
bp_ref = call_tool("create", "editor_toolset.toolsets.blueprint.BlueprintTools",
{"folder_path": "/Game/BP", "asset_name": "BP_X",
"asset_type": {"refPath": "/Script/Engine.Actor"}})[]
():
name = p.rsplit(, )[-].split()[]
{: p p.rsplit(, )[-] }

"returnValue"
# (b) Build one from a package path you already have:
All the arguments={"blueprint": path, ...} / {"blueprint": bp, ...} examples in the sub-docs are
shorthand — wrap the path with bp_ref_of(...) (or reuse the returned ref) when you actually call.
On success these tools return {"returnValue": null}; an error comes back as a Parameter error.
⚠️ Creating a Blueprint — engine BlueprintTools.create
Blueprint basics now live on the engine's BlueprintTools toolset (VibeUE extends the native MCP
endpoint). Create a Blueprint with call_tool, not unreal.BlueprintService.create_blueprint (that
method was cut):
# CORRECT — folder_path + asset_name are strings; asset_type is a {refPath} class reference.
result = call_tool(
tool_name="create",
toolset_name="editor_toolset.toolsets.blueprint.BlueprintTools",
arguments={"folder_path": "/Game/Blueprints", "asset_name": "BP_MyActor",
"asset_type": {"refPath": "/Script/Engine.Actor"}},
)
# -> {"returnValue": {"refPath": "/Game/Blueprints/BP_MyActor.BP_MyActor"}}
bp_ref = result["returnValue"] # reuse this {refPath} object for later BlueprintTools calls
The folder and asset name are passed separately (folder_path + asset_name) — do not jam a full
asset path into one argument. asset_type is the parent class as a {refPath}:
/Script/Engine.Actor, /Script/Engine.Pawn, /Script/Engine.Character, or a Blueprint's generated
class "/Game/.../BP_Base.BP_Base_C".
Blueprint Types in add_variable — engine BlueprintTools.add_variable
Adding a variable is also an engine BlueprintTools call now (unreal.BlueprintService.add_variable
was cut). Use call_tool with blueprint, name, type_name (and add_object_variable /
add_struct_variable for object- and struct-typed variables):
# CORRECT — blueprint is a {refPath} object; name/type_name are strings
call_tool(
tool_name="add_variable",
toolset_name="editor_toolset.toolsets.blueprint.BlueprintTools",
arguments={"blueprint": {"refPath": "/Game/BP_MyActor.BP_MyActor"}, "name": "Health", "type_name": "float"},
)
When the variable's type is a Blueprint class, use the Blueprint asset name directly in
type_name. Do not add _C, and do not construct a generated class path — just use the name
("BP_Enemy", or the full "/Game/Blueprints/BP_Enemy"). Appending _C ("BP_Enemy_C") or guessing
a generated class path is wrong; the type system resolves Blueprint names automatically via asset
search.
Engine structs need the F prefix: color variables are "FLinearColor" / "FColor" —
plain "LinearColor" / "Color" is not resolved. Unsure of a type string? Use the surviving
unreal.BlueprintService.search_variable_types("Linear") to look it up.
Supported primitive type_name values (exact):bool, int, float, byte, name, string,
text, Vector, Rotator, Transform, Vector2D, LinearColor. Use int (notint32) and
float (notdouble) — add_variable rejects int32/double with
"Unknown type 'int32'. Supported: …". For other engine structs (e.g. FColor, FGameplayTag) use
add_struct_variable with struct_type; for object/class refs use add_object_variable with
object_class as a {refPath}:
# Object-reference variable — object_class is a {refPath} to the class
call_tool("add_object_variable", "editor_toolset.toolsets.blueprint.BlueprintTools",
{"blueprint": {"refPath": "/Game/BP_MyActor.BP_MyActor"}, "name": "DeathFX",
"object_class": {"refPath": "/Script/Niagara.NiagaraSystem"}})
Struct/object/enum types from Python — add_member_variable (VibeUE delta)
From inside execute_python_code, unreal.BlueprintService.add_member_variable(bp_path, name, type_string, default="", is_array=False, container_type="") creates a member variable with full
type-string support — structs, objects, enums, and containers — in one batchable Python call
(no call_tool round-trip). It takes the same type strings as add_function_local_variable
("float", "FVector", "FStateTreeDelegateDispatcher", "AActor"):
Returns False (with the reason in the log) on a duplicate name or an unresolvable type string.
Compile after adding — the variable is registered but the class is only rebuilt on compile.
⚠️ Adding a function graph — engine BlueprintTools.add_function_graph
Creating a function graph moved to the engine toolset (create_function / add_function on
BlueprintService were cut). Use call_tool with blueprint + graph_name:
Refining the graph afterward still uses the surviving VibeUE delta methods
(add_function_parameter, add_function_local_variable, get_function_parameters,
get_function_info, override_function, open_function_graph).
⚠️ Method Name Gotchas
WRONG
CORRECT
get_component_info(path, name)
get_component_info(type) - takes ONLY type!
⚠️ Property Name Gotchas
WRONG
CORRECT
info.inputs
info.input_parameters
var.name
var.variable_name
⚠️ Python Naming: Boolean b Prefix Is Stripped
UE Python strips the lowercase b prefix from boolean properties. Always use the name without it:
C++ name
Python name
bAlreadyOverridden
already_overridden
bIsEventStyle
is_event_style
bIsNativeEvent
is_native_event
bEnabled
enabled
Do not use b_already_overridden, b_is_event_style, etc. — these will raise AttributeError.
Exception: the string-based CDO accessors get_property / set_property take the native C++
property name, so booleans KEEP the b prefix there ("bReplicates", not "replicates"). See the
next section.
Use these to read/write Class Default Object properties like replication or initial lifespan:
import unreal
bp = "/Game/Blueprints/TestActor"# READ — returns a single value: str, or None if the property wasn't found. NOT a (success, value) tuple!
value = unreal.BlueprintService.get_property(bp, "bReplicates") # "True" / "False" (a STRING)
life = unreal.BlueprintService.get_property(bp, "InitialLifeSpan") # "5.000000"# WRONG — raises ValueError: too many values to unpack# success, value = unreal.BlueprintService.get_property(bp, "bReplicates")# WRITE — values are strings; returns bool
unreal.BlueprintService.set_property(bp, "bReplicates", "True")
# Compile via the engine BlueprintTools toolset (compile_blueprint was cut from BlueprintService):# call_tool(tool_name="compile_blueprint",# toolset_name="editor_toolset.toolsets.blueprint.BlueprintTools",# arguments={"blueprint": {"refPath": "/Game/Blueprints/TestActor.TestActor"}})
unreal.EditorAssetLibrary.save_asset(bp)
Rules:
Returns str or None — UE Python collapses bool Func(..., Out&) into one return value. This
applies to every get_*_info method too (get_variable_info, get_function_info,
get_component_info, get_node_details): they return the info struct or None, never a tuple.
Property names are the native C++ names: bReplicates, InitialLifeSpan, bCanBeDamaged —
the b prefix is NOT stripped here (a stripped name returns None).
Values read back as strings: compare value == "True", not value is True.
On UE 5.3+, set_property maps the deprecated GameplayEffect CDO fields
InheritableGameplayEffectTags and InheritableOwnedTagsContainer to their Asset Tags and
Target Tags GameplayEffect Components. Writing only the legacy fields is otherwise erased by
UGameplayEffect::PreSave.
⚠️ Info Struct Fields (don't guess — these are the complete lists)
BlueprintLocalVariableInfo (in BlueprintFunctionDetailedInfo.local_variables)
variable_name, friendly_name, variable_type, display_type, default_value, category, guid, is_const, is_reference, is_array, is_set, is_map — local variables are NOT parameters: there is no parameter_name
BlueprintPinInfo (from get_node_pins / node.pins)
pin_name, pin_type, is_input, is_connected, default_value — direction is the single is_input bool; there is no is_output (use not pin.is_input)
BlueprintNodeTypeInfo (from discover_nodes)
display_name, category, spawner_key, node_class, tooltip, is_pure, is_latent, keywords — the description text is tooltip, not description
BlueprintComponentInfo
component_name, component_class, attach_parent, is_root_component, is_scene_component, is_inherited, children
name, display_name, class_path, category, parent_class, is_scene_component, is_primitive_component, property_count, function_count — there is no description
New root must be a SceneComponent. Old auto-generated DefaultSceneRoot is removed; an old user-created root and any other root-level scene components become children of the new root
get_component_property(bp, comp, prop) → str or None
Collision lives in BodyInstance — set_component_property cannot reach it
Root component behavior: components added with no parent_name go to root level. The first
scene component added this way replaces the auto-generated DefaultSceneRoot and becomes the root;
later parentless scene components become floating siblings, NOT children of the root. To build a
hierarchy, pass parent_name when adding, or use reparent_component / set_root_component.
⚠️ Property Value String Formats (set_component_property)
Values are strings in UE export-text syntax. Check property_type via
get_all_component_properties before guessing a struct format:
Property type
Format example
float / int32 / bool
"5000.0", "25", "true"
FVector / FRotator
"(X=0,Y=0,Z=50)", "(Pitch=0,Yaw=90,Roll=0)"
FColor (e.g. light LightColor)
"(R=255,G=127,B=0,A=255)" — integer bytes 0–255
FLinearColor
"(R=1.0,G=0.5,B=0.0,A=1.0)" — floats 0–1
Enum (e.g. IntensityUnits)
"Candelas"
❌ Common mistake: LightColor is FColor, so passing LinearColor-style floats like
"(R=1,G=0.5,B=0)" silently produces a nearly-black light (R=1 of 255), not orange.
⚠️ StateTree Dispatcher Variable Type
To add a StateTree delegate dispatcher variable to a Blueprint task (e.g. STT_*):
# Use type "FStateTreeDelegateDispatcher" — NOT "EventDispatcher".# The engine's BlueprintTools.add_variable REJECTS this type ("Unknown type" — basic types# only, live-verified); use the VibeUE struct-capable door instead:
unreal.BlueprintService.add_member_variable(bp_path, "FinishRotatingDispatcher", "FStateTreeDelegateDispatcher")
unreal.BlueprintEditorLibrary.compile_blueprint(unreal.EditorAssetLibrary.load_asset(bp_path))
"EventDispatcher" is a Blueprint-only concept and is not a valid type string. The correct type
for StateTree delegate transitions is the USTRUCT FStateTreeDelegateDispatcher.
After adding this variable, use bind_transition_to_delegate on the StateTree to link it to a
transition — it matches the task by registered class name (STT_Rotate_C), not asset path.
Use the dedicated dispatcher API — NOTadd_variable — to create the multicast delegates that appear in the Blueprint editor's Event Dispatchers section:
Method
What it does
add_event_dispatcher(bp_path, name)
Adds the dispatcher (member variable + signature graph). Skeleton is recompiled inline; the dispatcher is callable immediately.
Spawns the "Call " broadcast node on a UK2Node_CallDelegate. Wire the broadcast into its execute pin.
remove_event_dispatcher(bp_path, name)
Removes the dispatcher and its signature graph.
import unreal
bp = "/Game/StateTree/BP_Cube"# 1. Create the dispatcher (no compile needed before placing nodes — skeleton is regenerated inline)
unreal.BlueprintService.add_event_dispatcher(bp, "FinishedLooking")
# 2. (Optional) Add parameters to the signature
unreal.BlueprintService.add_event_dispatcher_parameter(bp, "FinishedLooking", "Direction", "FRotator")
# 3. Spawn the Call node and wire something into its execute pin
call_id = unreal.BlueprintService.add_call_delegate_node(bp, "EventGraph", "FinishedLooking", 1400, -700)
unreal.BlueprintService.connect_nodes(bp, "EventGraph", timeline_id, "Finished", call_id, "execute")
# 4. Compile (engine BlueprintTools toolset) + save# call_tool(tool_name="compile_blueprint",# toolset_name="editor_toolset.toolsets.blueprint.BlueprintTools",# arguments={"blueprint": bp})
unreal.EditorAssetLibrary.save_asset(bp)
Pins on the Call node:execute (input exec), then (output exec), self (input target — defaulted to Self), plus one input pin per signature parameter.
Subscribing to it elsewhere:
Preferred — add_delegate_bind_on_variable(other_bp, graph, variable_name, "FinishedLooking", x, y) when the dispatcher lives on the class of an existing variable (e.g. Cube : BP_Cube_C). Mirrors add_function_call_on_variable: derives the owner class from the variable's type, creates the bind node + Get, and auto-wires Target. Pair with add_custom_event_node and wire CustomEvent.OutputDelegate → Bind.Delegate.
Lower-level — add_delegate_bind_node(other_bp, graph, "<owner class>", "FinishedLooking", x, y) when you have no variable to derive from. <owner class> accepts "Self", native class names (with/without U/A prefix), Blueprint asset paths (/Game/.../BP_Cube), or short BP names with/without _C (BP_Cube, BP_Cube_C). You wire the Target pin yourself.
Common mistakes:
❌ add_variable(bp, "FinishedLooking", "EventDispatcher") — "EventDispatcher" is not a real type string; use add_event_dispatcher instead.
❌ Treating the dispatcher like a regular variable (add_get_variable_node on it produces a delegate-getter, not a broadcast). The broadcast node is UK2Node_CallDelegate and is created only by add_call_delegate_node.
❌ Skipping the compile before saving the asset. The skeleton compiles inline on dispatcher creation, but the final asset still needs the engine BlueprintTools.compile_blueprint toolset call before save_asset to ensure the generated class is up-to-date.
Blueprint Interfaces (implement / remove)
Add or remove a Blueprint Interface on a Blueprint class — the equivalent of Class Settings → Interfaces → Add in the editor.
Method
What it does
add_interface(bp_path, interface)
Implements the interface on the Blueprint. No-op (returns True) if it is already implemented. Marks the Blueprint structurally modified and recompiles it inline.
remove_interface(bp_path, interface)
Removes the interface from the Blueprint. Marks structurally modified and recompiles inline.
import unreal
bp = "/Game/Blueprints/BP_Player"# Prefer the FULL interface asset path — most reliable resolution
unreal.BlueprintService.add_interface(bp, "/Game/Interfaces/BPI_Interactable")
# Short name also works IF the interface asset is already loaded in the editor
unreal.BlueprintService.add_interface(bp, "BPI_Interactable")
# Persist (both methods compile inline, but still save the asset)
unreal.EditorAssetLibrary.save_asset(bp)
# Remove it later
unreal.BlueprintService.remove_interface(bp, "BPI_Interactable")
unreal.EditorAssetLibrary.save_asset(bp)
Notes & gotchas:
Prefer the full asset path (e.g. /Game/Interfaces/BPI_Interactable). Short-name resolution only finds interface Blueprints that are already loaded in the editor; a full path always loads and resolves.
Both methods recompile the Blueprint inline (CompileBlueprint) but do not save it — call EditorAssetLibrary.save_asset(bp) afterward to persist.
add_interface is idempotent — calling it for an interface that is already implemented returns True without duplicating it.
After adding an interface, its functions appear as overridable events/functions; use override_function(bp_path, function_name) to implement them in the graph.
Both return bool (True on success). A False from add_interface means either the interface path could not be resolved, or it resolved to an asset that is not a Blueprint Interface (e.g. a normal Blueprint or one merely parented to UInterface) — check the log and pass a real Blueprint Interface asset path.
The interface must be a true Blueprint Interface (BPTYPE_Interface), created with BlueprintInterfaceFactory. add_interface validates this and returns False for non-interface classes rather than letting the compile fail.

Verification
After any edit: compile via the engine BlueprintTools.compile_blueprint toolset call
(call_tool(tool_name="compile_blueprint", toolset_name="editor_toolset.toolsets.blueprint.BlueprintTools", arguments={"blueprint": path}))
and check the result's success / num_errors, then unreal.EditorAssetLibrary.save_asset(path).
Don't claim success until compile reports zero errors.
