What problem does it solve?

Automates common Unity Editor interactions so developers can enter play mode, select or inspect objects, execute menu commands, and manage undo/redo without manual UI navigation, reducing context switching and repetitive clicks.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Control play state: enter, stop, and toggle pause for rapid iteration and testing.
  • Selection and context: select GameObjects by name, instanceId, or path and retrieve full editor context including selected assets and scene state.
  • Editor utilities: execute exact menu commands, query tags and layers, and reliably perform undo/redo operations for safe experimentation.
  • Use case: run pre-checks, select specific objects, enter play mode to validate behavior, and revert changes with undo if needed.

Quick Start

Select the Player object by name, retrieve the current editor state, and enter play mode to test behavior.
