Editor / Application / Get State

Returns available information about 'UnityEditor.EditorApplication'. Use it to get information about the current state of the Unity Editor application. Such as: playmode, paused state, compilation state, etc.

Behavior

Snapshots Editor state via EditorStatsData.FromEditor() on the main thread and returns the result.

How to Call

unity-mcp-cli run-tool editor-application-get-state --input '{
  "nothing": "string_value"
}'

For complex input (multi-line strings, code), save the JSON to a file and use:

unity-mcp-cli run-tool editor-application-get-state --input-file args.json

Or pipe via stdin (recommended):

unity-mcp-cli run-tool editor-application-get-state --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.
