List all packages installed in the Unity project (UPM packages). Returns information about each installed package including name, version, source, and description. Use this to check which packages are currently installed before adding or removing packages.
unity-mcp-cli run-tool package-list --input '{
"sourceFilter": "string_value",
"nameFilter": "string_value",
"directDependenciesOnly": false
}'
For complex input (multi-line strings, code), save the JSON to a file and use:
unity-mcp-cli run-tool package-list --input-file args.jsonOr pipe via stdin (recommended):
unity-mcp-cli run-tool package-list --input-file - <<'EOF' {"param": "value"} EOF
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.
