setup-multiplayer-services
An agent skill by Unity-Technologies, from Unity-Technologies/unity-agent-plugin. Tags: design, games, unity.
What it does
Guides the development of online multiplayer experiences where players connect, group, and interact in real-time using Unity Multiplayer Services. Use when the user asks for topology choice, player grouping, hosting, matchmaking, discovery, network setup, and session-based play (rooms, parties, lobbies) using the Unity Multiplayer Services APIs. Not for leaderboards, cloud saves, or backend features that involve no real-time connection between players; those belong to the build-live-game skill.
