new-unity-project

An agent skill by Unity-Technologies, from Unity-Technologies/unity-agent-plugin. Tags: design, games, unity.

What it does

Use when starting a brand-new Unity game or project from scratch — "make/start/create a new game", "bootstrap a Unity project", "I want to build a [genre] game", "scaffold/prototype a game", game jam, greenfield, blank project, project setup. A guided flow that gathers the concept, target platforms, and monetization, installs the Editor in the background while it asks, then creates the project and source control and installs packages — delegating the mechanics to the unity-cli and unity-package-management skills and handing off monetization to the dedicated skills. Does not scaffold gameplay code.

Install

With the skills CLI, which installs into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and other agents:

npx skills add Unity-Technologies/unity-agent-plugin --skill new-unity-project

Or copy the skill folder into Claude Code's skills directory by hand (~/.claude/skills for every project, or .claude/skills inside one):

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/Unity-Technologies/unity-agent-plugin
cp -r unity-agent-plugin/skills/new-unity-project ~/.claude/skills/new-unity-project
