/scene-unload

name: scene-unload
description: Unload an opened scene from the Unity Editor (asynchronously via `SceneManager.UnloadSceneAsync`). Use 'scene-list-opened' to find the scene name first.

Scene / Unload

Unload scene from the Opened scenes in Unity Editor. Use 'scene-list-opened' tool to get the list of all opened scenes.

Inputs

• `name` — required non-empty scene name. Must match an opened scene; otherwise throws.

Behavior

Runs `SceneManager.UnloadSceneAsync` on the main thread and awaits completion. Returns an `UnloadSceneResult` containing the scene name and an `AssetObjectRef` to its asset (or `null` if the scene was not backed by an asset on disk).

How to Call

unity-mcp-cli run-tool scene-unload --input '{
  "name": "string_value"
}'

> For complex input (multi-line strings, code), save the JSON to a file and use: > ```bash > unity-mcp-cli run-tool scene-unload --input-file args.json > ``` > > Or pipe via stdin (recommended): > ```bash > unity-mcp-cli run-tool scene-unload --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.

Input

| Name | Type | Required | Description | |------|------|----------|-------------| | `name` | `string` | Yes | Name of the loaded scene. |
