// Execute Unity Editor menu commands programmatically. Use when you need to: (1) Trigger menu commands like save, build, or refresh, (2) Automate editor actions via menu paths, (3) Run custom menu items defined in project scripts.
Execute C# code dynamically in Unity Editor. Use when you need to: (1) Wire prefab/material references and AddComponent operations, (2) Edit SerializedObject properties and reference wiring, (3) Perform scene/hierarchy edits and batch operations, (4) PlayMode automation (click buttons, raycast, invoke methods), (5) PlayMode UI controls (InputField, Slider, Toggle, Dropdown), (6) PlayMode inspection (scene info, reflection, physics state). NOT for file I/O or script authoring.
Record keyboard and mouse input during PlayMode into a JSON file. Use when you need to: (1) Capture human gameplay input for later replay, (2) Record input sequences for E2E testing, (3) Save input for bug reproduction.
Replay recorded input during PlayMode with frame-precise injection. Use when you need to: (1) Reproduce recorded gameplay exactly, (2) Run E2E tests from recorded input, (3) Generate demo videos with consistent input.
Capture screenshots of Unity Editor windows as PNG files. Use when you need to: (1) Screenshot Game View, Scene View, Console, Inspector, or other windows, (2) Capture current visual state for debugging or documentation, (3) Save editor window appearance as image files.
Simulate keyboard key input in PlayMode via Input System. Use when you need to: (1) Press game control keys like WASD, Space, or Shift during PlayMode, (2) Hold keys down for continuous movement or actions, (3) Combine multiple held keys for complex input like Shift+W for sprint.
Simulate mouse input in PlayMode via Input System. Injects button clicks, mouse delta, and scroll wheel directly into Mouse.current. Use when you need to: (1) Click in games that read Mouse.current.leftButton.wasPressedThisFrame, (2) Right-click for actions like block placement, (3) Inject mouse delta for FPS camera control, (4) Inject scroll wheel for hotbar switching or zoom. For UI elements with IPointerClickHandler, use simulate-mouse-ui instead.
