For complex input (multi-line strings, code), save the JSON to a file and use:
unity-mcp-cli run-tool scene-get-data --input-file args.json
Or pipe via stdin (recommended):
unity-mcp-cli run-tool scene-get-data --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
`openedSceneName`	`string`	No	Name of the opened scene. If empty or null, the active scene will be used.
`includeRootGameObjects`	`boolean`	No	If true, includes root GameObjects in the scene data.
`includeChildrenDepth`	`integer`	No	Determines the depth of the hierarchy to include.
`includeBounds`	`boolean`	No	If true, includes bounding box information for GameObjects.
`includeData`	`boolean`	No	If true, includes component data for GameObjects.
