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`.
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.).
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.
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'.
