How it fires

How this skill gets triggered: by you, by Claude, or both.

  • Fires itselfAuto-invocation. Claude auto-loads it when your prompt matches the work.Auto-invocation is when the right skill fires by itself at the right moment, driven by a FLOW.md router and a hook, instead of you invoking it by name. It is the difference between a skill being installed and a skill actually getting used.Read the full definition →

> **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

  • Adding or removing UPM packages
  • Checking installed versions
  • Searching the registry
  • Scripting package operations
  • 添加或移除 UPM 包、检查已装版本、搜索 registry、脚本化包操作

Package Skills

Manage installed Unity packages and package-related helper flows such as Cinemachine and Splines setup.

Guardrails

**Operating Mode** (v1.9 three-tier):

  • **Approval** (default): query skills (`package_list`, `package_check`, `package_search`, `package_get_dependencies`, `package_get_versions`, `package_get_cinemachine_status`) run directly. `package_refresh` is the only FullAuto mutator — on `MODE_RESTRICTED`, run the grant protocol for it. Every other mutator is auto-forbidden (next bullet) and grant does **not** unlock it.
  • **Auto** / **Bypass**: SemiAuto and FullAuto run directly.
  • Auto-forbidden in this module: `package_install`, `package_remove`, `package_install_cinemachine`, `package_install_splines` (all `MayTriggerReload = true`, `RiskLevel = "high"`; `package_remove` also carries `SkillOperation.Delete`). They return `MODE_FORBIDDEN` under **both** Approval and Auto, and are reachable only under Bypass mode or via a user-managed Allowlist entry; the grant flow returns `MODE_FORBIDDEN` too, so do not attempt it.
  • Install/remove/refresh jobs return immediately with a `jobId`; the actual package import + Domain Reload happens asynchronously and may make the REST server transiently unavailable. Poll with `job_status` / `job_wait`.

**DO NOT** (common hallucinations):

  • `package_add` / `package_update` do not exist -> use `package_install`
  • `package_get_info` does not exist -> use `package_list`, `package_check`, `package_get_dependencies`, or `package_get_versions`
  • `package_search` searches the installed package cache only; it does not query the Unity Registry
  • Package query skills initialize their cache automatically after Domain Reload. During the short cold-start window they return `{ success: false, status: "refreshing", cacheReady: false, retryStrategy: "wait_and_retry", retryAfterSeconds: 2 }`; retry instead of treating this as `installed=false`.
  • Package install/remove/refresh jobs can trigger package import and Domain Reload; expect transient server unavailability and use returned job IDs

**Routing**:

  • For Cinemachine quick setup -> use `package_install_cinemachine`
  • For Splines quick setup -> use `package_install_splines`
  • For project manifest inspection -> use `project_get_packages`
  • For define symbol changes after package installation -> use `debug_set_defines`

Skills

`package_list`

List all installed packages currently cached by UnitySkills. **Parameters:** None.

**Returns:** `{ success, count, packages }`

`package_check`

Check whether a package is installed.

| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description | |-----------|------|----------|---------|-------------| | `packageId` | string | Yes | - | Package ID such as `com.unity.cinemachine` |

**Returns:** `{ packageId, installed, version }`

`package_install`

Install a package. Returns an async job when the request is accepted.

| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description | |-----------|------|----------|---------|-------------| | `packageId` | string | Yes | - | Package ID to install | | `version` | string | No | null | Optional explicit version |

**Returns:** `{ success, status, jobId, message, serverAvailability }`

`package_remove`

Remove an installed package. Returns an async job when the request is accepted.

| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description | |-----------|------|----------|---------|-------------| | `packageId` | string | Yes | - | Installed package ID to remove |

**Returns:** `{ success, status, jobId, message, serverAvailability }`

`package_refresh`

Refresh the installed package cache used by query skills. **Parameters:** None.

**Returns:** `{ success, status, jobId, message }`

`package_install_cinemachine`

Install Cinemachine using the supported package/version strategy.

| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description | |-----------|------|----------|---------|-------------| | `version` | int | No | 3 | `2` for CM2, `3` for CM3 |

**Notes:**

  • CM3 auto-installs the Splines dependency.
  • If the requested line is already installed, this skill can return immediate success instead of a job.

**Returns:** `{ success, status?, jobId?, message, serverAvailability? }`

`package_install_splines`

Install or upgrade Unity Splines using the recommended version for the current Unity editor line. **Parameters:** None.

**Returns:** `{ success, status?, jobId?, message, serverAvailability? }`

`package_get_cinemachine_status`

Get current Cinemachine and Splines installation status. **Parameters:** None.

**Returns:** `{ cinemachine, splines }`

`package_search`

Search the installed package cache by package name or display name.

| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description | |-----------|------|----------|---------|-------------| | `query` | string | Yes | - | Search keyword |

**Returns:** `{ success, query, count, packages }`

`package_get_dependencies`

Get dependency information for one installed package.

| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description | |-----------|------|----------|---------|-------------| | `packageId` | string | Yes | - | Installed package ID |

**Returns:** `{ success, packageId, version, dependencyCount, dependencies }`
