Package List

Package Manager / List Installed

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.

Inputs

• sourceFilter (default All) — restrict by Unity PackageSource: All, Registry, Embedded, Local, Git, BuiltIn, LocalTarball.
• nameFilter (optional) — case-insensitive substring filter over name / displayName / description. Results are prioritized: exact name → exact displayName → name substring → displayName substring → description substring.
• directDependenciesOnly (default false) — when true, return only packages listed in manifest.json (no transitive dependencies).

How to Call

bashCopy code
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:

bashCopy code
unity-mcp-cli run-tool package-list --input-file args.json

Or pipe via stdin (recommended):

bashCopy code
unity-mcp-cli run-tool package-list --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.
