* update uv.lock to prepare for merging into main
* Restore Python 3.10 lockfiles and package list_unity_instances tool
* Deduplicate Unity instance discovery by port
* Scope status-file reload checks to the active instance
* refactor: implement FastMCP middleware for session-based instance routing
Replaces module-level session_state.py with UnityInstanceMiddleware class
that follows FastMCP best practices. Middleware intercepts all tool calls
via on_call_tool hook and injects active Unity instance into request state.
Key changes:
- Add UnityInstanceMiddleware class with on_call_tool hook
- Tools now use ctx.get_state("unity_instance") instead of direct session_state calls
- Remove unity_instance parameter from all tool schemas to prevent LLM hallucination
- Convert list_unity_instances tool to unity_instances resource (read-only data)
- Update error messages to reference unity://instances resource
- Add set_state/get_state methods to DummyContext test helper
- All 67 tests passing (55 passed, 5 skipped, 7 xpassed)
Architecture benefits:
- Centralized session management in middleware
- Standard FastMCP patterns (middleware + request state)
- Cleaner separation of concerns
- Prevents AI hallucination of invalid instance IDs
* fix: convert resource templates to static resources for discoverability
Convert MCP resources from URI templates with query parameters to static
resources to fix discoverability in MCP clients like Claude Code.
Changes:
- Remove {?force_refresh} from unity://instances
- Remove {?unity_instance} from mcpforunity://menu-items
- Remove {?unity_instance} from mcpforunity://tests
- Keep {mode} path parameter in mcpforunity://tests/{mode} (legitimate)
Root cause: Query parameters {?param} trigger ResourceTemplate registration,
which are listed via resources/templates/list instead of resources/list.
Claude Code's ListMcpResourcesTool only queries resources/list, making
templates undiscoverable.
Solution: Remove optional query parameters from URIs. Instance routing is
handled by middleware/context, and force_refresh was cache control that
doesn't belong in resource identity.
Impact: Resources now discoverable via standard resources/list endpoint and
work with all MCP clients including Claude Code and Cursor.
Requires FastMCP >=2.13.0 for proper RFC 6570 query parameter support.
* feat: improve material properties and sync Server resources
Material Property Improvements (ManageAsset.cs):
- Add GetMainColorPropertyName() helper that auto-detects shader color properties
- Tries _BaseColor (URP), _Color (Standard), _MainColor, _Tint, _TintColor
- Update both named and array color property handling to use auto-detection
- Add warning messages when color properties don't exist on materials
- Split HasProperty check from SetColor to enable error reporting
This fixes the issue where simple color array format [r,g,b,a] defaulted to
_Color property, causing silent failures with URP Lit shader which uses _BaseColor.
Server Resource Sync:
- Sync Server/resources with MCPForUnity/UnityMcpServer~/src/resources
- Remove query parameters from resource URIs for discoverability
- Use session-based instance routing via get_unity_instance_from_context()
* fix: repair instance routing and simplify get_unity_instance_from_context
PROBLEM:
Instance routing was failing - scripts went to wrong Unity instances.
Script1 (intended: ramble) -> went to UnityMCPTests ❌
Script2 (intended: UnityMCPTests) -> went to ramble ❌
ROOT CAUSE:
Two incompatible approaches for accessing active instance:
1. Middleware: ctx.set_state() / ctx.get_state() - used by most tools
2. Legacy: ctx.request_context.meta - used by script tools
Script tools were reading from wrong location, middleware had no effect.
FIX:
1. Updated get_unity_instance_from_context() to read from ctx.get_state()
2. Removed legacy request_context.meta code path (98 lines removed)
3. Single source of truth: middleware state only
TESTING:
- Added comprehensive test suite (21 tests) covering all scenarios
- Tests middleware state management, session isolation, race conditions
- Tests reproduce exact 4-script failure scenario
- All 88 tests pass (76 passed + 5 skipped + 7 xpassed)
- Verified fix with live 4-script test: 100% success rate
Files changed:
- Server/tools/__init__.py: Simplified from 75 lines to 15 lines
- MCPForUnity/UnityMcpServer~/src/tools/__init__.py: Same simplification
- tests/test_instance_routing_comprehensive.py: New comprehensive test suite
* refactor: standardize instance extraction and remove dead imports
- Standardize all 18 tools to use get_unity_instance_from_context() helper
instead of direct ctx.get_state() calls for consistency
- Remove dead session_state imports from with_unity_instance decorator
that would cause ModuleNotFoundError at runtime
- Update README.md with concise instance routing documentation
* fix: critical timezone and import bugs from code review
- Remove incorrect port safety check that treated reclaimed ports as errors
(GetPortWithFallback may legitimately return same port if it became available)
- Fix timezone-aware vs naive datetime mixing in unity_connection.py sorting
(use timestamp() for comparison to avoid TypeError)
- Normalize all datetime comparisons in port_discovery.py to UTC
(file_mtime and last_heartbeat now consistently timezone-aware)
- Add missing send_with_unity_instance import in Server/tools/manage_script.py
(was causing NameError at runtime on lines 108 and 488)
All 88 tests pass (76 passed + 5 skipped + 7 xpassed)

* Add TDD tests for MCP material management issues
- MCPMaterialTests.cs: Tests for material creation, assignment, and data reading
- MCPParameterHandlingTests.cs: Tests for JSON parameter parsing issues
- SphereMaterialWorkflowTests.cs: Tests for complete sphere material workflow
These tests document the current issues with:
- JSON parameter parsing in manage_asset and manage_gameobject tools
- Material creation with properties
- Material assignment to GameObjects
- Material component data reading
All tests currently fail (Red phase of TDD) and serve as specifications
for what needs to be fixed in the MCP system.
* Refine TDD tests to focus on actual MCP tool parameter parsing issues
- Removed redundant tests that verify working functionality (GameObjectSerializer, Unity APIs)
- Kept focused tests that document the real issue: MCP tool parameter validation
- Tests now clearly identify the root cause: JSON string parsing in MCP tools
- Tests specify exactly what needs to be fixed: parameter type flexibility
The issue is NOT in Unity APIs or serialization (which work fine),
but in MCP tool parameter validation being too strict.
* Fix port discovery protocol mismatch
- Update _try_probe_unity_mcp to recognize Unity bridge welcome message
- Unity bridge sends 'WELCOME UNITY-MCP' instead of JSON pong response
- Maintains backward compatibility with JSON pong format
- Fixes MCP server connection to Unity Editor

* fix: swap order of telemetry and resource decorators to properly wrap handlers
* fix: update log prefixes for consistency in logging methods
* Fix compile errors
* feat: extend command registry to support both tools and resources
* Run get tests as a coroutine because it doesn't return results immediately
This works but it spams logs like crazy, maybe there's a better/simpler way
* refactor: migrate from coroutines to async/await for test retrieval and command execution
* feat: add optional error field to MCPResponse model
* Increased timeout because loading tests can take some time
* Make message optional so error responses that only have success and error don't cause Pydantic errors
* Set max_retries to 5
This connection module needs a lookover. The retries should be an exponential backoff and we could structure why it's failing so much
* Use pydantic model to structure the error output
* fix: initialize data field in GetTestsResponse to avoid potential errors
* Don't return path parameter
* feat: add Unity test runner execution with structured results and Python bindings
* refactor: simplify GetTests by removing mode filtering and related parsing logic
* refactor: move test runner functionality into dedicated service interface
* feat: add resource retrieval telemetry tracking with new record type and helper function
* fix: convert tool functions to async and await ctx.info calls
* refactor: reorganize menu item functionality into separate execute and get commands
An MCP resource for retrieval, and a simple command to execute. Because it's a resource, it's easier for the user to see what's in the menu items
* refactor: rename manage_menu_item to execute_menu_item and update tool examples to use async/await
We'll eventually put a section for resources
* Revert "fix: convert tool functions to async and await ctx.info calls"
This reverts commit 012ea6b7439bd1f2593864d98d03d9d95d7bdd03.

* Refactor: New Service-Based MCP Editor Window Architecture
We separate the business logic from the UI rendering of the new editor window with new services.
I didn't go full Dependency Injection, not sure if I want to add those deps to the install as yet, but service location is fairly straightforward.
Some differences with the old window:
- No more Auto-Setup, users will manually decide what they want to do
- Removed Python detection warning, we have a setup wizard now
- Added explicit path overrides for `uv` and the MCP server itself
* style: add flex-shrink and overflow handling to improve UI element scaling
* fix: update UI configuration and visibility when client status changes
* feat: add menu item to open legacy MCP configuration window
* refactor: improve editor window lifecycle handling with proper update subscription
* feat: add auto-verification of bridge health when connected

* fix: add Claude CLI directory to PATH for node/nvm environments
* Clarify how users will see MCP tools
* Add a keyboard shortcut to open the window
* feat: add server download UI and improve installation status messaging
This is needed for the Unity Asset Store, which doesn't have the Python server embedded.
* feat: add dynamic asset path detection to support both Package Manager and Asset Store installations
* fix: replace unicode emojis with escaped characters in status messages
* feat: add server package creation and GitHub release publishing to version bump workflow
* fix: add v prefix to server package filename in release workflow
* Fix download location
* style: improve dropdown and settings layout responsiveness with flex-shrink and max-width
* feat: add package.json version detection and refactor path utilities
* refactor: simplify imports and use fully qualified names in ServerInstaller.cs
* refactor: replace Unity Debug.Log calls with custom McpLog class
* fix: extract server files to temp directory before moving to final location
* docs: add v6 UI documentation and screenshots with service architecture overview
* docs: add new UI Toolkit-based editor window with service architecture and path overrides
* feat: improve package path resolution to support Package Manager and Asset Store installations
* Change Claude Code's casing back to "UnityMCP"
There's no need to break anything as yet
* fix: update success dialog text to clarify manual bridge start requirement
* refactor: move RefreshDebounce and ManageScriptRefreshHelpers classes inside namespace
* feat: add Asset Store fallback path detection for package root lookup
* fix: update server installation success message to be more descriptive
* refactor: replace Unity Debug.Log calls with custom McpLog utility
* fix: add file existence check before opening configuration file
* refactor: simplify asset path handling and remove redundant helper namespace references

* feat: import UnityEditor.UIElements namespace for UI components for Unity 2021 compatibility
* refactor: rename Python server references to MCP server for consistency
* fix: reset client status label color after error state is cleared
* Replace the phrase "Python server" with "MCP server"
* MInor doc clarification
* docs: add path override methods for UV and Claude CLI executables
* docs: update service locator registration method name from SetCustomImplementation to Register
* Copy UnityMcpBridge into a new MCPForUnity folder
This is to close#284
* refactor: rename UnityMcpBridge directory to MCPForUnity in docs
* chore: rename UnityMcpBridge directory to MCPForUnity across workflow files
* chore: rename UnityMcpBridge directory to MCPForUnity across all files
* refactor: update import paths from UnityMcpBridge to MCPForUnity across test files
* fix: update module import paths to use MCPForUnity instead of UnityMcpBridge
* chore: update unity-mcp package path to MCPForUnity directory
* feat: add OneTimeSetUp to initialize CommandRegistry before tests run
Hopefully fix the CI failures
* Apply recent fix to new folder
* Temporarily trigger tests to see if CI works
* Revert "Temporarily trigger tests to see if CI works"
It works!
This reverts commit 8c6eaaad07545cef047769f2c52fe506545a8161.
