Unity Console Skills

Work with the Unity console - capture logs, write messages, and debug your project.

Guardrails

Mode: Semi-Auto (available by default)

DO NOT (common hallucinations):

• console_filter does not exist → use console_get_logs with filter parameter
• console_read does not exist → use console_get_logs
• console_write does not exist → use console_log
• Do not confuse with debug_get_logs — console_get_logs reads captured buffer, debug_get_logs reads all console entries

Routing:

• For compilation errors specifically → use debug module's debug_check_compilation
• For error stack traces → use debug module's debug_get_stack_trace
• For console settings (collapse, clear-on-play) → console_set_collapse / console_set_clear_on_play (this module)

Example Usage

import unity_skills

# Start capturing logs before play mode
unity_skills.call_skill("console_start_capture")

# Enter play mode
unity_skills.call_skill("editor_play")
# ... gameplay generates logs ...
unity_skills.call_skill("editor_stop")

# Get all captured logs
logs = unity_skills.call_skill("console_get_logs")
for log in logs['logs']:
    print(f"[{log['type']}] {log['message']}")

# Get only errors
errors = unity_skills.call_skill("console_get_logs", filter="Error")
if errors['totalLogs'] > 0:
    print(f"Found {errors['totalLogs']} errors!")

# Write custom log
unity_skills.call_skill("console_log",
    message="AI Agent: Task completed",
    type="Log"
)

# Write warning
unity_skills.call_skill("console_log",
    message="AI Agent: Performance issue detected",
    type="Warning"
)

# Clear and stop
unity_skills.call_skill("console_clear")
unity_skills.call_skill("console_stop_capture")

Best Practices

1. Start capture before play mode for runtime logs
2. Filter by Error to quickly find problems
3. Use custom logs to mark AI agent actions
4. Clear console before starting new capture session
5. Stop capture when done to free resources
