# Godot MCP Studio MCP tools Source: https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools 350 MCP tools in total. The free Lite edition includes 79 of them; Pro includes all 350. Live tools need the Godot editor open with the addon enabled. Static tools work on project files with the editor closed. Each entry lists the editions, whether it needs the live editor, and its risk level. ## Files Read, search, and edit files, sandboxed to the project. (18 tools) - [list_projects](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#list_projects) (Lite and Pro, static, read only): List the local Godot projects this server knows: the current one (the project its editor bridge serves) and the desktop app's recent projects, each with path, name, Godot version, whether it still exists, and whether an editor is listening for it. Pass one of these paths as project_path to the read-only static tools to inspect a second project without disturbing the connected editor session; project_path accepts only the projects listed here. - [get_project_info](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#get_project_info) (Lite and Pro, static, read only): Get Godot project metadata (name, Godot version, main scene, autoloads, feature tags). Works with the editor closed; project_path reads another project from list_projects instead. - [list_project_files](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#list_project_files) (Lite and Pro, static, read only): List files in the Godot project (excludes the .godot cache and .import sidecars by default). project_path lists another project from list_projects instead. - [read_file](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#read_file) (Lite and Pro, static, read only): Read a UTF-8 text file inside the Godot project. project_path reads it from another project in list_projects instead. - [write_file](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#write_file) (Lite and Pro, static, creates or edits): Create or edit a file in the project. With the editor open it also refreshes the file there: a .gd file is compiled (compiled true/false with parse errors) and the editor's loaded copy and open script tab take the new source, and an open scene file is reloaded in the editor (scene_reloaded), or scene_note explains why not when the editor has unsaved changes to it. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control mode; for protected files (project.godot, .godot cache, the Godot MCP Studio addon) Full Control writes and Safe Edit asks first. - [delete_file](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#delete_file) (Lite and Pro, static, destructive, Full Control only): Delete a file in the project. Destructive: Full Control runs it, Safe Edit asks first. - [copy_file](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#copy_file) (Lite and Pro, static, creates or edits): Copy a file within the project (sidecars are regenerated by the editor). Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [create_directory](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#create_directory) (Lite and Pro, static, creates or edits): Create a directory (and any missing parents) inside the project. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [move_file](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#move_file) (Lite and Pro, static, creates or edits): Move or rename a file within the project, carrying its .import and .uid sidecars so Godot keeps import settings and UID references. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [search_in_files](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#search_in_files) (Lite and Pro, static, read only): Search the text contents of project files (grep-like). Skips the .godot cache and, by default, the addons folder. project_path searches another project from list_projects instead. - [list_scenes](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#list_scenes) (Lite and Pro, static, read only): List scene (.tscn) files with their root node name and type. Works with the editor closed; project_path lists another project from list_projects instead. - [get_scene_dependencies](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#get_scene_dependencies) (Lite and Pro, static, read only): Get the resource dependencies (ext_resource paths) referenced by a scene file. A dependency moved since the scene was saved is listed at its current path when its uid still resolves. - [list_scripts](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#list_scripts) (Lite and Pro, static, read only): List GDScript/C# scripts with their class_name and extends. Works with the editor closed; project_path lists another project from list_projects instead. - [get_project_settings](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#get_project_settings) (Lite and Pro, static, read only): Get all project.godot settings as structured JSON (sections and keys). - [get_project_statistics](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#get_project_statistics) (Lite and Pro, static, read only): Get project statistics: file counts by kind and total script lines. - [find_unused_resources](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#find_unused_resources) (Lite and Pro, static, read only): Find assets, resources, scenes, and shaders that nothing in the project references (no res:// path or uid:// use anywhere), so dead files can be reviewed and removed. Works with the editor closed. - [detect_circular_dependencies](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#detect_circular_dependencies) (Lite and Pro, static, read only): Detect dependency cycles between scenes and resources (ext_resource references). Cycles make scenes hard to reason about and can break preloading. Works with the editor closed. - [find_files](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#find_files) (Lite and Pro, static, read only): Find project files by path, case-insensitive. A plain pattern is a substring match; a pattern with * or ? is a glob, where * and ? stay within one folder and ** spans folders. A glob without / matches file names in any folder (*.tscn), one with / matches the whole path (scenes/**/*.gd). project_path searches another project from list_projects instead. ## Editor See what the editor is doing. (45 tools) - [get_scene_tree](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#get_scene_tree) (Lite and Pro, live editor, read only): Get the tree of the scene currently open in the Godot editor (requires the editor to be open with the Godot MCP Studio addon enabled). Pass path to get only that node's subtree. Nesting stops 40 levels below the starting node: a deeper node lists no children and carries children_omitted with its path, so call again with that path to continue. - [get_editor_log](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#get_editor_log) (Lite and Pro, live editor, read only): Get recent editor bridge activity log lines (connection and command events, not full editor stdout, and not script or import errors). To compile-check a script use validate_script. - [get_editor_screenshot](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#get_editor_screenshot) (Lite and Pro, live editor, read only): Capture a screenshot of the Godot editor's main viewport so you can see the current editor state. Pass max_width (for example 960) for a cheap downscaled preview and omit it when fine detail matters. - [describe_scene_visual](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#describe_scene_visual) (Lite and Pro, live editor, read only): Describe the open scene's visible layout as structured text: per node its type, path, on-screen rect or world position, text, color, texture, and mesh. The non-visual alternative to get_editor_screenshot for AI clients that cannot see images. Pass include_hidden to include invisible nodes. - [set_node_properties](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#set_node_properties) (Lite and Pro, live editor, creates or edits): Set several properties on a node in one call and one undo step. `properties` maps property names to values (arrays for vectors/colors). Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [add_timer](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#add_timer) (Lite and Pro, live editor, creates or edits): Add a Timer with wait_time, autostart, and one_shot in one call, optionally connecting its timeout signal to a method on another node. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [batch_set_property](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#batch_set_property) (Lite and Pro, live editor, creates or edits): Set the same property on many nodes in one call and one undo step, e.g. hide every enemy at once. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [batch_get_properties](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#batch_get_properties) (Lite and Pro, live editor, read only): Read the same properties from many nodes in one call, a row per node, for auditing scene state without a request per node. - [set_property_across_scenes](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#set_property_across_scenes) (Lite and Pro, live editor, runs code, Full Control only): Set a property on every node of a class across every saved scene in the project (a cross-scene refactor). Open scenes are skipped and reported; changes save to disk and are not undoable. Full Control runs it, Safe Edit asks first. - [get_selection](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#get_selection) (Lite and Pro, live editor, read only): Get the nodes the user currently has selected in the editor's scene tree. The way to see what the user is pointing at. - [select_node](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#select_node) (Lite and Pro, live editor, creates or edits): Select a node in the editor's scene tree and focus the inspector on it, so the user can see the node being discussed. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [get_node_properties](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#get_node_properties) (Lite and Pro, live editor, read only): Get the editor properties of a node in the open scene (path relative to the scene root). - [find_nodes](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#find_nodes) (Lite and Pro, live editor, read only): Search the open scene for nodes by class (with inheritance) and/or name substring. The fast way to navigate a large scene. - [open_scene](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#open_scene) (Lite and Pro, live editor, creates or edits): Open a scene (.tscn) in the editor so live scene tools act on it, waiting a few editor frames for the tab switch. If the file changed on disk after the editor loaded it, the editor reloads it first (reloaded_from_disk); if the editor also has unsaved changes the result carries a warning instead, and reload true takes the disk version. The editor is shared by every connected AI client and the user: one edited scene and one undo history, so another client can switch scenes between your calls. Pass edited_scene to scene-editing tools to make them refuse to touch any other scene. - [close_scene](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#close_scene) (Lite and Pro, live editor, creates or edits): Close an open scene tab in the editor: the scene being edited, or the open scene at path. Refuses while the scene has unsaved changes, so call save_scene first. Closes one tab per call and replies once the tab is closed (closed true). Use this instead of run_editor_script to close scenes. Needs Godot 4.5 or newer. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [create_scene](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#create_scene) (Lite and Pro, live editor, creates or edits): Create a new scene file with a root node and open it. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [add_node](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#add_node) (Lite and Pro, live editor, creates or edits): Add a node of the given class under a parent in the open scene. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [instance_scene](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#instance_scene) (Lite and Pro, live editor, creates or edits): Instance a scene (.tscn) as a child node in the open scene, the way reusable game objects are composed. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [duplicate_node](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#duplicate_node) (Lite and Pro, live editor, creates or edits): Duplicate a node (and its children) within the open scene. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [delete_node](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#delete_node) (Lite and Pro, live editor, destructive, Full Control only): Delete a node from the open scene. Destructive: Full Control runs it, Safe Edit asks first. - [rename_node](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#rename_node) (Lite and Pro, live editor, creates or edits): Rename a node in the open scene. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [reparent_node](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#reparent_node) (Lite and Pro, live editor, creates or edits): Move a node to a new parent in the open scene. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [set_node_property](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#set_node_property) (Lite and Pro, live editor, creates or edits): Set a property on a node in the open scene. Vector/color values accept arrays like [x, y]. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [connect_signal](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#connect_signal) (Lite and Pro, live editor, creates or edits): Connect a signal from one node to a method on another, optionally binding extra arguments (binds). Refuses a connection that already exists, a method whose parameter count cannot take the signal's arguments plus binds, and a method the receiver does not have (unless allow_missing_method is true). Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [save_scene](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#save_scene) (Lite and Pro, live editor, creates or edits): Save the scene currently open in the editor to disk. Never silently replaces a newer file: if the file changed on disk after the editor loaded it, an editor copy without unsaved changes is reloaded instead (reloaded_from_disk), and one with unsaved changes is refused unless overwrite is true. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [editor_undo](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#editor_undo) (Lite and Pro, live editor, creates or edits): Undo the most recent editor action, the way Ctrl+Z does: it picks whichever of the open scene's history and the global history (theme, animation and other resource edits) holds the newest action, including every change made through these tools. The history is shared with the user and every other connected AI client, so the newest action may not be yours: check the returned action names undone, and pass edited_scene so it refuses to act on another scene. Returns the action names undone and whether more undo or redo is available. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [editor_redo](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#editor_redo) (Lite and Pro, live editor, creates or edits): Redo the last undone editor action across the open scene's history and the global history, in the order the actions were made, the way Ctrl+Shift+Z does. Like editor_undo it works on the history every client and the user share. Returns the action names redone and whether more undo or redo is available. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [save_branch_as_scene](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#save_branch_as_scene) (Lite and Pro, live editor, creates or edits): Turn a node's subtree into a reusable .tscn (Godot's Save Branch as Scene) and replace the branch with an instance of it, the way prefabs are built. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [read_script](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#read_script) (Lite and Pro, live editor, read only): Read a script file's source via the editor. - [create_script](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#create_script) (Lite and Pro, live editor, creates or edits): Create a new script file and compile it; the result carries compiled true/false and any parse errors with line numbers. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [edit_script](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#edit_script) (Lite and Pro, live editor, creates or edits): Replace the source of an existing script file and compile it; the result carries compiled true/false and any parse errors with line numbers. The editor's loaded copy and any open script tab switch to the new source, so nodes see new exports and a later save or run cannot write the old text back (script_editor_note says when unsaved tab edits were replaced). Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [validate_script](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#validate_script) (Lite and Pro, live editor, read only): Compile-check GDScript source (or an existing script) without running it; reports whether it is valid and lists parse errors with line numbers. - [attach_script](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#attach_script) (Lite and Pro, live editor, creates or edits): Attach a script resource to a node in the open scene. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [add_state_machine_script](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#add_state_machine_script) (Lite and Pro, live editor, creates or edits): Scaffold a single-script state machine on one node and attach it: a State enum, change_state, empty _enter_state/_exit_state match arms, and one physics handler per state. This is not a node-per-state machine. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [get_theme_info](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#get_theme_info) (Lite and Pro, live editor, read only): Inspect a Theme resource: defaults and every defined type/item (colors, constants, fonts, icons, styleboxes). - [set_theme_color](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#set_theme_color) (Lite and Pro, live editor, creates or edits): Set a single Theme color item (type + name). Scene-safe and reversible via Ctrl+Z after reload of dependent controls; requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [assign_theme](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#assign_theme) (Lite and Pro, live editor, creates or edits): Assign a Theme .tres to a Control through editor undo so the style is serialized and visible before Play. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [get_curve_info](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#get_curve_info) (Lite and Pro, live editor, read only): Inspect a Curve resource: domain/value ranges, bake resolution, and every point with tangents. - [get_gradient_info](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#get_gradient_info) (Lite and Pro, live editor, read only): Inspect a Gradient resource: interpolation settings and ordered color stops. - [get_sprite_frames_info](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#get_sprite_frames_info) (Lite and Pro, live editor, read only): Inspect SpriteFrames from a .tres path or an AnimatedSprite2D/3D node: animations, FPS, loop, and frames. - [get_tileset_info](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#get_tileset_info) (Lite and Pro, live editor, read only): Inspect a TileSet from a .tres path or a TileMapLayer node: sources, layers, and terrains. - [set_control_style](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#set_control_style) (Lite and Pro, live editor, creates or edits): Style one Control through undoable theme overrides (font size, color, outline, min size, modulate). Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [set_control_icon](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#set_control_icon) (Lite and Pro, live editor, creates or edits): Assign a Texture2D as a Button/Control icon through editor undo. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [set_option_button_items](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#set_option_button_items) (Lite and Pro, live editor, creates or edits): Replace an OptionButton's items in one undoable call (text/id/disabled/icon). Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [add_ui_dialog](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#add_ui_dialog) (Lite and Pro, live editor, creates or edits): Add a dialog node under a parent: accept (AcceptDialog), confirmation (ConfirmationDialog with a cancel button), or file (FileDialog with file_mode, access and filters for save and load menus). Sets title and button text. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. ## Scene editing Build and restructure the scene open in the editor. (4 tools) - [replace_node_type](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#replace_node_type) (Pro only, live editor, creates or edits): Replace a node with a new class (the editor's Change Type), including the scene root, keeping the name, children and their owners, groups, metadata, compatible properties, signal connections and editable instance flags; undoable. keep_script keeps the script and its exported values when the new class fits it. Nodes inside instanced or inherited scenes are refused; change them in their own scene. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [set_unique_name](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#set_unique_name) (Pro only, live editor, creates or edits): Toggle a node's scene-unique name so scripts can reference it as %Name.

(16 tools) - [get_bridge_status](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#get_bridge_status) (Lite and Pro, static, read only): Report whether the Godot editor bridge is connected and, when it is not, why: no pairing token, no addon listening on the port, pairing rejected, edition mismatch, the project closed in Godot, or an unresponsive editor. When disconnected it first tries to reconnect (reconnect_attempted), then reports editor_responding, the port, the last disconnect and what the project's pairing file says. Works with the editor closed. Call this first when a live tool says the editor is not connected. - [list_tools](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#list_tools) (Lite and Pro, static, read only): List every tool this MCP server ships. Optionally search names/descriptions or include full input schemas. Use this instead of guessing which Godot tools exist. - [get_agent_content_info](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#get_agent_content_info) (Lite and Pro, static, read only): Show the verified source, edition, bundle version, per-skill content versions, installation targets, and usage insights and feedback status for this project's generated agent content. - [record_skill_usage](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#record_skill_usage) (Lite and Pro, static, read only): Record that a bundled Godot MCP Studio skill is guiding the current task. Call it once right after you load a skill's SKILL.md for the task, with that skill's exact name. Reports only the skill ID, content/client versions, edition, and an opaque project ID. Pro usage insights are on by default and can be turned off in desktop Settings; this tool returns disabled and stores nothing when they are off or unavailable. Call at most once per skill per task. - [submit_agent_feedback](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#submit_agent_feedback) (Lite and Pro, static, read only): Send privacy-limited feedback to the Godot MCP Studio team yourself, without asking the user. Kinds: tool_error when an MCP tool fails, misbehaves, or returns wrong or confusing output, improvement for a missing capability (confirm with list_tools first) or a tool that should behave better, idea for a new feature, workflow, or skill suggestion, praise for something that worked especially well. Optionally name the tool_name or skill_name it concerns. Keep the message short and generic: never include the user's request, prompts, project details, source code, file content, credentials, usernames, or paths. Always on in Pro, whatever the usage insights setting; Lite returns disabled and stores nothing. Returns accepted false with reason rate_limited when this install sent too much recently; do not retry immediately. - [godot_guide](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#godot_guide) (Lite and Pro, static, read only): Get a website-managed Godot best-practice guide for a topic: proven patterns, tool sequences, and reference links. Call without a topic to list the guides available for this edition. Read the matching guide before building a feature in that area. - [list_signals](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#list_signals) (Lite and Pro, live editor, read only): List the signals a node can emit (built-in and script-defined), with their argument names. - [list_connections](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#list_connections) (Lite and Pro, live editor, read only): List the existing signal connections coming out of a node (signal, target node, method). - [disconnect_signal](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#disconnect_signal) (Lite and Pro, live editor, creates or edits): Disconnect a signal connection between two nodes in the open scene. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [list_groups](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#list_groups) (Lite and Pro, live editor, read only): List groups: a node's groups when `path` is given, otherwise every group used in the open scene. - [add_to_group](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#add_to_group) (Lite and Pro, live editor, creates or edits): Add a node to a group (persisted into the scene). Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [remove_from_group](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#remove_from_group) (Lite and Pro, live editor, creates or edits): Remove a node from a group in the open scene. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [list_nodes_in_group](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#list_nodes_in_group) (Lite and Pro, live editor, read only): List the node paths in a given group within the open scene. - [run_editor_script](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#run_editor_script) (Lite and Pro, live editor, runs code, Full Control only): Run an arbitrary GDScript snippet inside the editor. The snippet must define `func run():` and may return a value. Has full access to the editor API for automation the fixed tools don't cover. Executes code; Full Control runs it, Safe Edit asks first. - [list_classes](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#list_classes) (Lite and Pro, live editor, read only): List instantiable Godot classes, optionally filtered. Defaults to Node types. Discover what nodes exist before adding them. - [describe_class](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#describe_class) (Lite and Pro, live editor, read only): Describe a Godot class: its properties, methods, and signals from ClassDB. The way to learn a node's API without guessing. ## Run & test Run the game and write self-verifying tests. (5 tools) - [play_project](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#play_project) (Pro only, live editor, runs code, Full Control only): Run the project's main scene. First registers class_name scripts the editor has not indexed yet (written outside the editor) and waits up to 15 seconds for a running scan, so new class_name types resolve in the game; script_classes reports what it refreshed. Waits up to 8 seconds for the game runtime to connect and reports game_connected, so game_* tools work right after it returns true. A game that was already running is stopped and replaced (replaced_running_game), and game_connected waits for the new game only. When the runtime does not connect, for example because the game stopped in the debugger on a parse error, script_errors lists each script that does not compile with path, line and message. Executes project code; Full Control runs it, Safe Edit asks first. - [play_scene](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#play_scene) (Pro only, live editor, runs code, Full Control only): Run a specific scene. First registers class_name scripts the editor has not indexed yet (written outside the editor) and waits up to 15 seconds for a running scan, so new class_name types resolve in the game; script_classes reports what it refreshed. Waits up to 8 seconds for the game runtime to connect and reports game_connected, so game_* tools work right after it returns true. A game that was already running is stopped and replaced (replaced_running_game), and game_connected waits for the new game only. When the runtime does not connect, for example because the game stopped in the debugger on a parse error, script_errors lists each script that does not compile with path, line and message. Executes project code; Full Control runs it, Safe Edit asks first. - [stop_playing](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#stop_playing) (Pro only, live editor, read only): Stop the running game, including any extra multiplayer test instances launched from the editor. - [is_playing](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#is_playing) (Pro only, live editor, read only): Report whether a scene is currently running in the editor. - [run_gdscript_test](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#run_gdscript_test) (Pro only, live editor, runs code, Full Control only): Write and run a game test: provide `body` with check(cond, msg) assertions (or a full `source`). The body may await; it is awaited before checks and failures are counted. Runs in a headless Godot subprocess and reports pass/fail, check counts and output. Executes code; Full Control runs it, Safe Edit asks first. ## Running game Watch and poke the game while it plays. (28 tools) - [list_game_instances](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#list_game_instances) (Pro only, live editor, read only): List the running game instances the editor bridge can reach: index (0 = the editor's own play session, 1 = the play_multiplayer host, 2+ = its clients), pid, and whether each has connected. Pass an index as `instance` to any game_* tool to target it. - [game_get_scene_tree](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#game_get_scene_tree) (Pro only, live editor, read only): Get the live scene tree of the RUNNING game (start it with play_project/play_scene/play_multiplayer first). Pass path to get only that node's subtree. Nesting stops 40 levels below the starting node: a deeper node lists no children and carries children_omitted with its path, so call again with that path to continue. - [game_get_errors](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#game_get_errors) (Pro only, live editor, read only): Get every error, script error, and warning the RUNNING game has raised (push_error, crashes in scripts). New game errors also arrive automatically in the new_errors field of your next tool result; call this for the full list, or with after_sequence to poll without clearing. Each entry is tagged with the instance and pid it came from. - [game_get_output](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#game_get_output) (Pro only, live editor, read only): Get the print() output the RUNNING game has produced, for reading debug logs live. - [game_monitor_property](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#game_monitor_property) (Pro only, live editor, read only): Sample a node property in the RUNNING game over time (up to 8 seconds) and return the series. The way to verify motion, physics, and animation actually happen. To watch a property while input plays, pass monitor to game_simulate_sequence instead. - [game_reload_scene](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#game_reload_scene) (Pro only, live editor, creates or edits): Restart the RUNNING game's current scene, for fast iteration without stopping and replaying. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [game_get_node_properties](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#game_get_node_properties) (Pro only, live editor, read only): Get a node's live property values in the RUNNING game. - [game_set_node_property](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#game_set_node_property) (Pro only, live editor, creates or edits): Set a property on a node in the RUNNING game (does not persist to the scene file). The value is converted to the property's declared type, so vectors, colors and rects accept arrays or {"x": x, "y": y} objects. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [game_call_method](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#game_call_method) (Pro only, live editor, runs code, Full Control only): Call a method on a node in the RUNNING game and return its result. JSON args are converted to the method's declared parameter types, so Vector2i, Vector3, Color, Rect2, NodePath and similar arguments accept [x, y] arrays or {"x": x, "y": y} objects; a value that cannot be converted is refused with the expected type. Executes game code; Full Control runs it, Safe Edit asks first. - [game_raycast_3d](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#game_raycast_3d) (Pro only, live editor, read only): Cast a native Godot 3D physics ray in the RUNNING game. Use world-space from/to points, or camera_path plus an optional screen position for FPS hitscan and line-of-sight verification. Returns collider, hit position, normal, shape and face indices. - [game_simulate_input](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#game_simulate_input) (Pro only, live editor, creates or edits): Simulate player input in the RUNNING game: an input action, key press, mouse click, mouse motion, or hover. Mouse x/y and dx/dy are in viewport coordinates (the project's base resolution, the same space as game_find_ui and game_describe_screen rects), converted to window pixels for stretch modes; mouse events without x/y continue from the last simulated pointer position. type hover moves the virtual pointer to x/y, waits a frame and returns the hovered control's path, type, text and cursor_shape, so hover states and custom cursors can be asserted; it does not move your real OS pointer unless warp_cursor is true, and script_mouse_position shows what get_global_mouse_position() reads. type type_text types text into a LineEdit, TextEdit or SpinBox (path, or the focused field) as real key presses. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [game_simulate_sequence](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#game_simulate_sequence) (Pro only, live editor, creates or edits): Run a timed multi-step input sequence in the RUNNING game (combos, run-and-jump, menu flows): steps of action/key/mouse events with hold and delay timing, plus wait steps. The whole sequence plays inside the game on physics frames, so tool-call latency never stretches it; use pressed true/false steps to hold one input while tapping another. Inputs still held at the end are released, and unknown actions are refused. Mouse motion carries the held mouse buttons, so press, move and release steps perform a real Control drag and drop. Pass monitor to sample a property on the same frames while it plays. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [game_wait_for_node](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#game_wait_for_node) (Pro only, live editor, read only): Wait until a node exists in the RUNNING game (spawns, scene changes, opening UI) or a timeout passes, then report which. Use before asserting on nodes that appear asynchronously. - [game_find_ui](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#game_find_ui) (Pro only, live editor, read only): List interactive UI in the RUNNING game (buttons, inputs, sliders, and custom controls that handle gui_input) with text as displayed (translated; text_key holds the key when it differs; label_texts lists further Label, RichTextLabel or Button text inside a clickable control), rect [x, y, width, height] in viewport coordinates (the project's base resolution, usable directly as game_simulate_input mouse x/y), and disabled/focus state, optionally filtered by text. The map of what is clickable right now. - [game_find_layout_overflow](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#game_find_layout_overflow) (Pro only, live editor, read only): Find UI layout overflow in the RUNNING game: Controls whose minimum size is larger than the viewport, children whose minimum size pushes them out of a fixed size parent, and controls partly outside the viewport. Each issue lists sizes, the overflow in pixels, the child chain whose minimum size drives it, the cause (many stacked children, custom_minimum_size, unwrapped text, texture size) and a fix hint. Reports the outermost offender per branch and skips ScrollContainer content. - [game_describe_screen](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#game_describe_screen) (Pro only, live editor, read only): Describe what the RUNNING game shows on screen as structured text: visible UI (with text and rect), on-screen sprites/bodies/meshes (with position and texture), and the active 2D/3D camera. The non-visual alternative to game_screenshot for AI clients that cannot see images. - [game_click_ui](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#game_click_ui) (Pro only, live editor, creates or edits): Click a button/control in the RUNNING game by its visible text (or exact path), via real simulated mouse press and release at its center. Text matches what is displayed, so translated text works as well as the translation key, and it also matches Label, RichTextLabel or Button text anywhere inside a button or a custom control that handles gui_input; the click lands on the innermost such clickable control, not on the label. The returned position is in viewport coordinates, matching game_find_ui. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [game_start_input_recording](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#game_start_input_recording) (Pro only, live editor, creates or edits): Start recording the player's real input (keys, mouse) with timestamps in the RUNNING game, for building regression replays from an actual session. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [game_stop_input_recording](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#game_stop_input_recording) (Pro only, live editor, read only): Stop the input recording in the RUNNING game and return the captured events (also kept in the game for game_replay_input). - [game_replay_input](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#game_replay_input) (Pro only, live editor, creates or edits): Replay recorded input events with their original timing in the RUNNING game (background playback; observe with screenshots or monitors). Omit events to replay the last recording. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [game_assert_property](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#game_assert_property) (Pro only, live editor, read only): Assert a node property in the RUNNING game against an expected value (eq, ne, gt, lt, ge, le, contains) and get a pass/fail with the actual value. The building block for automated play-test checks. - [game_screenshot](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#game_screenshot) (Pro only, live editor, read only): Capture a screenshot of the RUNNING game's viewport so you can see what the player sees. Pass max_width (for example 640) for a cheap downscaled preview and omit it when fine detail matters. Not available on an instance launched with headless_host. - [game_get_performance](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#game_get_performance) (Pro only, live editor, read only): Get live performance metrics of the RUNNING game: FPS, frame times, memory, node count, draw calls. - [game_set_time_scale](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#game_set_time_scale) (Pro only, live editor, creates or edits): Set the RUNNING game's engine time scale (slow motion / fast forward). Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [game_set_paused](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#game_set_paused) (Pro only, live editor, creates or edits): Pause or unpause the RUNNING game's scene tree. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [game_get_collision_report](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#game_get_collision_report) (Pro only, live editor, read only): Report physics contacts in the RUNNING game: floor/wall/ceiling and slide collisions for character bodies, overlaps for areas, colliding bodies for rigid bodies. Empty path walks the whole scene. The way to debug why something is (not) colliding. - [game_capture_gif](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#game_capture_gif) (Pro only, live editor, read only): Capture a short sequence of viewport frames from the RUNNING game as PNGs (motion the agent can review), spaced over time. Returns the saved frame paths. - [game_set_debug_draw](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#game_set_debug_draw) (Pro only, live editor, creates or edits): Set the RUNNING game viewport's debug draw mode (disabled, unshaded, wireframe, overdraw, normal_buffer) to inspect rendering. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. ## Assets Browse, import, and compare assets, and work with Image Studio. (29 tools) - [import_image_studio_gif](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#import_image_studio_gif) (Pro only, static, creates or edits): Import an animated GIF from the selected Godot project into a local Image Studio artwork. Every GIF frame becomes its own saved PNG frame named -01, -02 and so on, and the reported detected_fps comes from the GIF's own frame delays. Pass animation_id to append the frames to an existing timeline in order, or build one afterwards with configure_image_studio_animation. Limited to 240 frames and refuses a GIF whose frames change size. Free, offline, never uploads artwork, and requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [export_image_studio_animation_gif](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#export_image_studio_animation_gif) (Pro only, static, creates or edits): Write a local Image Studio animation into the selected Godot project as one animated GIF, at the animation's own frame rate, looping when the animation loops. Use it to preview or share a clip; the per-frame PNGs and the SpriteFrames handoff remain the way to bring artwork into a game. Refuses to overwrite an existing file. Free, offline, never uploads artwork, and requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [export_image_studio_animations_zip](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#export_image_studio_animations_zip) (Pro only, static, creates or edits): Write local Image Studio animations into the selected Godot project as one zip archive holding a PNG per frame, named _-01.png, which is the same layout the web download produces. Leave animation_ids empty to archive every animation in the artwork that has saved frames; empty animations are skipped and listed in skipped_empty_animations. Refuses to overwrite an existing file. Free, offline, never uploads artwork, and requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [configure_image_studio_rig](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#configure_image_studio_rig) (Pro only, static, creates or edits): Create or edit a persistent local Image Studio skeleton: create a rig from a template (create_humanoid with template humanoid, quadruped, or bird), add/update/remove custom bones, set angle constraints and influence handles, set/remove frame pose keyframes, bind artwork, toggle IK, or clear the rig. Uses normalized coordinates and rejects stale project state. Free, offline, and never calls an image provider. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [request_image_studio_generation](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#request_image_studio_generation) (Pro only, static, creates or edits): Generate pixel art sprites, tiles, icons, sprite sheets, or animations with hosted Image Studio AI, or edit, inpaint, cut out, or vary a saved artwork, instead of writing Python/PIL or other scripts. This is the paid route: it spends the user's Image Studio credits, and only after they review the price and approve it in the desktop app; drawing with create_image_studio_project is the free local route. This tool cannot approve, reserve credits, or call a provider. Target project_id or new_project. The proposal is checked against the same rules the app and server apply before it is saved, so an invalid combination returns an error naming the field and the fix and never reaches the approval queue. Presets with a fixed camera, such as character_side or map_top_down (all listed under preset), take camera_view auto. render_style, model_tier and pro_style apply only to generate and variation, the animation fields only to animation_set, and tile_mode only to tiles_seamless; each field lists its allowed values and canvas sizes. Pixel presets accept max_colors (1 to 256) and a palette of hex colours to lock the output to. Always set name to a short label for the result, such as mine_east or hero idle; the desktop uses it for the timeline clip, layer, and saved file names. Poll get_image_studio_generation_request: a failed request carries the reason in error and the next step in hint. Then export_image_studio_asset the output into the Godot project. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [list_image_studio_generation_requests](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#list_image_studio_generation_requests) (Pro only, static, read only): List recent MCP-proposed hosted Image Studio requests and their desktop approval, provider queue, completion, failure, or cancellation state. Filter by status (one value or a list) and project_id; limit defaults to 20 with open requests first, then newest first. Read-only and never contacts a provider. - [get_image_studio_generation_request](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#get_image_studio_generation_request) (Pro only, static, read only): Get one MCP-proposed hosted Image Studio request, including whether it awaits desktop review/approval and its reserved, queued, running, waiting-provider, storing, completed, failed, canceled, or reconciliation state. download_failed means the job finished and was paid but the desktop could not import the result yet; the user can retry the import from the desktop Approvals page. A request in storing for over 2 minutes carries a hint: it is paid and waits for the desktop app to import it, so never request it again. A failed request carries the specific reason in error, such as a content filter, canvas size or style mismatch, and the next step in hint; send a corrected request with a new idempotency_key instead of asking the user to retry. Read-only. - [cancel_image_studio_generation_request](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#cancel_image_studio_generation_request) (Pro only, static, creates or edits): Request cancellation of an MCP-proposed hosted Image Studio job. Unsubmitted proposals cancel immediately; a submitted job remains cancel_requested until the desktop app performs the required device-signed cancellation, including jobs in reconciliation_required. If the provider had already charged, the job keeps running and its result is still imported. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [export_image_studio_asset](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#export_image_studio_asset) (Pro only, static, creates or edits): Copy a saved local Image Studio asset into the selected Godot project as a new PNG (`res:///.png`). Completes the artwork pipeline after generation or editing without a manual desktop step. Refuses to overwrite existing project files; pass the inspected asset SHA-256 to reject stale exports. With the editor open it waits briefly for the import and returns editor_imported; when that is false, retry before using the PNG in a scene.

Use this instead of Python/PIL or other scripts to draw sprites, tiles, icons, or animation frames. Free, runs locally, never calls an image provider. Creates a new PNG, preserves the original, and can append frame outputs to an animation. Pass pixels inline as edits, or for large patches write the same edits array (or an object with an edits key) to a .json file inside the Godot project and pass its res:// path as edits_path; give exactly one. Requires the inspected project timestamp and asset SHA-256 to reject stale edits. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [prepare_pixel_asset](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#prepare_pixel_asset) (Pro only, live editor, creates or edits): Clean up a project image as pixel art into a new PNG: nearest-neighbor resize, transparent-border trim, palette reduction, alpha cleanup, and isolated-pixel cleanup.

Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. ## Project settings Settings and autoload singletons, live. (6 tools) - [set_window_settings](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#set_window_settings) (Pro only, live editor, creates or edits): Configure the game window in one call: resolution, fullscreen, stretch mode/aspect, and title (the window title is the project name, application/config/name). Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [set_main_scene](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#set_main_scene) (Pro only, live editor, creates or edits): Set the scene the game starts with (application/run/main_scene), validating the scene exists. The last step that makes a project runnable. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [get_project_setting](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#get_project_setting) (Pro only, live editor, read only): Read a project setting value. - [set_project_setting](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#set_project_setting) (Pro only, live editor, creates or edits): Set a project setting value and save. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. Settings under editor_plugins/ load editor code, so they require Full Control (Safe Edit asks first); use enable_plugin for that. - [add_autoload](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#add_autoload) (Pro only, live editor, creates or edits): Register an autoload singleton: a scene, or a script that extends Node (other scripts are refused). Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [remove_autoload](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#remove_autoload) (Pro only, live editor, destructive, Full Control only): Remove an autoload singleton. Destructive: Full Control runs it, Safe Edit asks first. ## Debugging Find what's broken before you run it. (5 tools) - [check_all_scripts](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#check_all_scripts) (Pro only, live editor, read only): Compile every GDScript in the project and report the ones that fail, each with the first error's line and message. Great for finding what's broken. The running Godot MCP Studio plugin's own scripts are never recompiled; skipped_live_plugin and skipped_hint report them. Folders the editor never indexes (a nested project.godot or a .gdignore) are listed in skipped_folders instead of compiled. By default (wait_for_scan) it first registers class_name scripts written outside the editor and blocks while the editor is scanning, up to scan_timeout_s (15 seconds), so you never need a retry loop; script_classes reports what it refreshed. - [get_node_warnings](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#get_node_warnings) (Pro only, live editor, read only): List the editor configuration warnings (the yellow triangles) on nodes in the open scene. - [get_editor_errors](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#get_editor_errors) (Pro only, live editor, read only): Every error and warning the editor process has raised since the addon started (script errors, import problems), whether or not a tool result already showed it. Pass clear to reset the buffer. Tool results carry a new_errors list automatically, so call this only to see the full history. - [get_debugger_errors](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#get_debugger_errors) (Pro only, live editor, read only): Read the editor's captured errors and warnings with kind filtering, sequence filtering and script backtraces; the same buffer as get_editor_errors, plus the running game's errors when include_game is set. Reports whether capture is supported (Godot 4.5+). Pass after_sequence to poll only newer entries, or clear to reset the buffer. - [project_health_report](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#project_health_report) (Pro only, live editor, read only): One-call project health check. Always runs the static checks: missing res:// and uid:// references, uids shared by two files, leftover .import and .uid files, import artifacts, assets never imported, dependency cycles, main scene, broken autoloads, add-on installed and enabled, add-on and server versions, a stale play-test autoload, input actions used in code but missing from the Input Map, Godot version support, physics tick rate, pixel-art stretch mode, export presets, git ignore rules for .godot/, and unused resources. With the editor connected it also compiles every script, reads the open scene's node warnings, and reports editor and game errors logged in the last 5 minutes. Returns healthy true/false, the problem count, and one entry per check with details. Errors and warnings are problems: run it after every few authoring steps and fix them before building more. Info entries are optional suggestions and never make the report unhealthy. project_path runs only the static checks on another project from list_projects, without touching the connected editor. ## Export & build Ship it: list export presets and produce a build. (4 tools) - [create_export_preset](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#create_export_preset) (Pro only, live editor, creates or edits): Create or replace an export preset in export_presets.cfg for a target platform. Preset-level keys in options (include_filter, exclude_filter, export_filter, export_files, custom_features, encryption filters, encrypt_pck, script_export_mode and the rest of the [preset.N] keys) go to the preset section; other keys, e.g. binary_format/embed_pck, go to [preset.N.options]. export_presets.cfg is a protected file: Full Control writes it, Safe Edit asks first. - [list_export_presets](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#list_export_presets) (Pro only, live editor, read only): List the project's export presets (name, platform, runnable, output path). - [export_project](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#export_project) (Pro only, live editor, runs code, Full Control only): Start exporting/building the project with a preset to an output path in a background Godot process. Returns immediately with started, pid, output_path, and log_path; poll get_export_status with those values until running is false. Needs the matching export templates installed. Executes a build; Full Control runs it, Safe Edit asks first. - [get_export_status](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#get_export_status) (Pro only, live editor, read only): Check a background export started by export_project: whether the export process is still running, whether the output file exists with its size and modification time, the tail of the export log, and success once the process has stopped and output_path was given. ## Game workflows Starter scaffolds: menus, pause, settings, save systems, and multiplayer test runs. (6 tools) - [create_main_menu](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#create_main_menu) (Pro only, live editor, creates or edits): Create a complete main-menu scene with title, Play, and Quit buttons, wired to a script. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [create_pause_menu](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#create_pause_menu) (Pro only, live editor, creates or edits): Create a pause-menu scene that toggles with ui_cancel and provides Resume and Quit buttons. Pass main_menu to make Quit return to a menu scene instead of exiting. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [create_settings_menu](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#create_settings_menu) (Pro only, live editor, creates or edits): Create a settings-menu scene with master volume, fullscreen, and Back controls persisted through ConfigFile. Back hides the menu when it is embedded in another scene; pass main_menu so Back returns to that scene when the settings menu runs as its own scene. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [create_save_system](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#create_save_system) (Pro only, live editor, creates or edits): Create and register a ConfigFile-based save-system autoload with typed save/load/delete helpers. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [play_multiplayer](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#play_multiplayer) (Pro only, live editor, runs code, Full Control only): Launch 2-8 independent game instances for live multiplayer testing; instance 1 is the intended host, 2+ the clients. Returns one {index, pid} entry per instance and, like play_scene, first registers class_name scripts written outside the editor, then waits up to 8 seconds for their runtimes to connect, so game_* tools can target them by `instance` right away; stop_playing ends them. Anything in arguments or instance_arguments reaches the game as user arguments, readable with OS.get_cmdline_user_args(). Requires Full Control; Safe Edit asks first. - [record_game_video](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#record_game_video) (Pro only, live editor, runs code, Full Control only): Launch Godot Movie Maker mode to record a scene to a movie file for trailers or bug reports. Requires Full Control; Safe Edit asks first. ## World authoring Build the world: day/night cycles, minimaps, and localization. (4 tools) - [add_day_night_cycle](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#add_day_night_cycle) (Pro only, live editor, creates or edits): Author a script-free day/night cycle as a serialized looping AnimationPlayer track that rotates a DirectionalLight3D.

Visible and editable in Godot before Play. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [add_translation](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#add_translation) (Pro only, live editor, creates or edits): Create a Translation resource from key/value messages and register it with the project. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. - [set_locale](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#set_locale) (Pro only, live editor, creates or edits): Set the locale used for editor preview and the next game run. Requires Safe Edit or Full Control. ## Templates Find, preview, install, and update Pro templates in your project. (4 tools) - [list_templates](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#list_templates) (Pro only, static, read only): List the Godot MCP Studio Pro templates this license can install: slug, name, summary, kind (addon or content), version, the supported Godot version range, file count, download size, license and tags. Reusable systems such as an inventory or dialogue system, fetched from the product API with your license. Read-only network request, works in every permission mode. Use preview_template next to see exactly what a template would write. - [preview_template](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#preview_template) (Pro only, static, read only): Dry run an install: fetch the signed manifest for a template slug, verify its Ed25519 signature against the pinned key, and return the exact write plan without touching disk. Reports every project-relative path that would be created, which of them already exist and would be overwritten, the total byte size, whether the template is addon shaped, and whether the project's Godot version is inside the template's supported range. Pass destination to preview a content template at a specific folder; addon templates always preview under addons//. Also refuses a manifest that lists two paths differing only in case, because they would collide on Windows and on a default macOS filesystem and one file would be silently lost. For an addon template that is already installed, also returns the update plan it compares against the install receipt: which files update_template would add, which unmodified files it would replace, which files it would keep untouched because you edited them, which files at the destination are not the template's at all, and which unmodified files the new version drops and would remove. Content templates are installed once and are never updated in place, so they get no update plan. Read-only, works in every permission mode. Show this plan to the person before calling install_template or update_template. - [install_template](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#install_template) (Pro only, static, creates or edits): Install a Pro template into the project after verifying it end to end. Fetches the signed manifest, verifies its Ed25519 signature against the pinned key, downloads the archive, checks every extracted file against its manifest sha256, refuses any entry the manifest does not list, any path escape, symlink or non-regular entry, and any archive over the size, file-count or compression-ratio caps. Files are staged inside the project and only then moved into place, so a failure never leaves a half written system. Nothing from the archive is ever executed during the install, though an addon template you later enable does run its code inside the editor, which the Safe Edit prompt says plainly. An addon template installs under addons// and destination must be omitted; a content template needs a project-relative destination inside the project that is not addons/, .godot/, .godot_mcp/, .git/ or .import/. Refuses an install outside the template's supported Godot version range. Existing files are never replaced unless overwrite=true, and the refusal names the files that blocked it; when the blocked destination already holds an installed addon template, the refusal points at update_template, which replaces only the files you never edited. A successful install records a receipt under .godot_mcp/templates/.json listing every path it wrote and the sha256 it wrote there. Write risk: runs in Safe Edit and Full Control. Replacing existing files is destructive, so overwrite=true over a real collision runs in Full Control and asks first in Safe Edit. Call preview_template first. - [update_template](https://www.godotmcpstudio.com/tools#update_template) (Pro only, static, creates or edits): Update an already installed addon template to the version the catalog now publishes, replacing only the files you never touched. Compares every file against the install receipt written at install time: a file missing from disk is written, a file whose sha256 still matches the receipt is replaced, a file whose sha256 differs was edited by you and is left exactly as it is, a file at the destination the receipt does not list is not the template's and is left alone, and a file the new version drops is removed only when it is still unmodified. The reply names every file in each of those groups, and preview_template shows the same split before anything happens. Verifies the signed manifest, the archive and every sha256 exactly as install_template does, stages inside the project, and rolls the whole update back if any step fails or if a file changed on disk after the plan was made. Only addon templates, which live under addons//, can be updated: a content template is installed once and becomes part of your project, so it is never updated in place. Needs an install receipt at .godot_mcp/templates/.json, which install_template writes. Write risk: runs in Safe Edit and Full Control. Replacing or removing files is destructive, so an update that touches any existing file runs in Full Control and asks first in Safe Edit, naming the counts.
