UnrealAIAssistant — Development skill for Claude Code

UnrealAIAssistant

      

UnrealAIAssistant is a UE 5.5 editor plugin repository built around the `UnrealAIAssistant` plugin. It integrates AI coding backends directly into the Unreal Editor, currently supporting OpenAI CodeX and Claude Code, while exposing Unreal-specific tools for assets, Blueprints, characters, materials, viewport capture, scripting, and task-based automation.

This repository includes:

• The UnrealAIAssistant Unreal Engine editor plugin
• A local Node.js MCP bridge in Resources/mcp-bridge
• Editor automation tests for the MCP tool surface

Highlights

• Dockable assistant panel inside Unreal Editor
• Backend switching between supported AI coding CLIs
• Quick Ask action for short prompts without leaving the editor
• Local MCP server hosted by the plugin on port 3000
• MCP bridge that works with the supported backends and other MCP-compatible clients
• Tool coverage for actors, levels, assets, Blueprints, animation Blueprints, materials, Enhanced Input, scripting, viewport capture, and async task management
• Built-in validation around tool parameters and script execution
