unity-console

Before calling any skill in this module: if you are about to call a skill with parameters guessed from its name or description, STOP — read this file (or fetch its schema via GET /skills/recommend?includeSchema=true) first. If you already have the parameter definitions from recommend/schema, you may proceed straight to dryRun.

Triggers

• Inspecting console output
• Filtering errors or warnings
• Emitting log messages
• Configuring the console
• View console output, filter errors or warnings, output logs, configure console

Unity Console Skills

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

Operating Mode

• Approval: read-only skill (console_get_logs / console_get_stats, marked SkillMode.SemiAuto) executes directly; other skills (console_start_capture / console_stop_capture / console_clear / console_log / console_export / console_set_pause_on_error / console_set_collapse / console_set_clear_on_play, default SkillMode.FullAuto) require user grant, and after grant execute in one step and return the result.
• Auto / Bypass: executes directly.
• This module does not include Delete / PlayMode / Reload / RiskLevel=high type skills — there is no IsForbiddenInSemi interception, and no high-risk operations that require Bypass to run.

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)

Skills

console_start_capture

Start capturing Unity console logs.

No parameters.

console_stop_capture

Stop capturing logs.

No parameters.

console_get_logs

Get Unity Console logs (reads existing console history directly; if console_start_capture is active, returns captured buffer with timestamps instead).

Parameter	Type	Required	Default	Description
type	string	No	"All"	All / Error / Warning / Log (case-insensitive; a value naming none of them is rejected with SEMANTIC_INVALID)
filter	string	No	null	Substring content filter
limit	int	No	100	Max results

Returns (two shapes depending on mode):

• Capture mode (console_start_capture active): {count, logs: [{type, message, time}], source: "capture"} — time formatted HH:mm:ss.fff
• Direct mode (default, reads Unity Console history): {count, logs: [{type, message, file, line}], source: "console"} — type is Error / Warning / Log, file / line from Unity's LogEntry

console_clear

Clear the Unity console.

No parameters.

console_log

Write a custom log message.

Parameter	Type	Required	Default	Description
message	string	Yes	-	Log message
type	string	No	"Log"	Log/Warning/Error

console_set_pause_on_error

Enable or disable Error Pause in Play mode.

Parameter	Type	Required	Default	Description
enabled	bool	No	true	Enable or disable error pause

Returns: { success, enabled }

console_export

Export console logs to a file. Uses captured buffer when console_start_capture is active; otherwise reads directly from Unity Console history (no setup needed).

Parameter	Type	Required	Default	Description
savePath	string	No	"Assets/console_log.txt"	File path to save logs

Returns: { success, path, count, source }

console_get_stats

Get log statistics (count by type). Uses captured buffer when console_start_capture is active; otherwise reads directly from Unity Console history.

No parameters.

Returns (two shapes depending on mode):

• Capture mode (buffer present, i.e. console_start_capture was called or buffer is non-empty): {success, total, source: "capture", logs, warnings, errors, exceptions, asserts}
• Direct mode (no capture buffer, reads Unity Console history): {success, total, source: "console", logs, warnings, errors} — exceptions / asserts are not reported in direct mode (folded into errors)

console_set_collapse

Set console log collapse mode.

Parameter	Type	Required	Default	Description
enabled	bool	Yes	-	Enable or disable collapse mode

Returns: { success, setting, enabled }

console_set_clear_on_play

Set clear on play mode.

Parameter	Type	Required	Default	Description
enabled	bool	Yes	-	Enable or disable clear on play

Returns: { success, setting, enabled }

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", type="Error")
if errors['count'] > 0:
    print(f"Found {errors['count']} 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
