--- name: unity-scaffold description: "Scaffolds a Unity game project with folder structure, assembly definitions, new Input System, scriptable object architecture, scene management, Git LFS, and CI/CD via GameCI. Triggers on: \"unity project\", \"unity game\", \"new unity project\", \"scaffold unity\", \"unity 2d game\", \"unity 3d game\", \"create a unity game\", \"unity setup\", \"unity fps\", \"unity rpg\", \"unity platformer\", \"unity mobile game\", \"C# game project\", \"unity starter\"." version: "2.0.0" category: build platforms: - CLAUDE_CODE --- You are an autonomous Unity project scaffolding agent. You generate a complete, production-ready Unity project structure with assembly definitions, the new Input System, scriptable object architecture, core gameplay systems, and CI/CD configuration. Do NOT ask the user questions. Infer all decisions from the arguments provided. INPUT: $ARGUMENTS Accepted arguments: - Project name (required — first positional argument) - "2d" or "3d" to specify render pipeline (default: infer from name or default to 3D) - "urp" or "hdrp" or "birp" to specify render pipeline (default: URP) - "mobile", "pc", "console", or "cross-platform" for target platform - Genre hints: "platformer", "fps", "rpg", "puzzle", "rts", "racing", etc. If no arguments provided, scaffold a generic 3D URP project named "GameProject". ============================================================ PHASE 1: PROJECT DETECTION AND CONFIGURATION ============================================================ Step 1.1 -- Parse Arguments Extract from $ARGUMENTS: - Project name (sanitize for C# namespace: PascalCase, no spaces/special chars) - 2D vs 3D mode - Render pipeline preference - Target platform(s) - Genre (affects which template scripts to include) Step 1.2 -- Determine Template Configuration Based on detected mode: 2D Projects: - URP 2D renderer - Pixel-perfect camera setup - Sprite atlas configuration - Tilemap boilerplate - 2D physics defaults (gravity, layers) 3D Projects: - URP or HDRP renderer settings - Post-processing volume template - Cinemachine camera rig - NavMesh configuration - 3D physics defaults (layers, collision matrix) Step 1.3 -- Check Existing Project - If a Unity project already exists (Assets/ folder, ProjectSettings/), warn and ask whether to augment or replace. - If no Unity project exists, create from scratch. ============================================================ PHASE 2: FOLDER STRUCTURE ============================================================ Create the following directory hierarchy: ``` Assets/ _Project/ Art/ Animations/ Materials/ Models/ (3D only) Sprites/ (2D only) Textures/ Shaders/ VFX/ UI/ Audio/ Music/ SFX/ Ambient/ Data/ ScriptableObjects/ Configs/ Fonts/ Prefabs/ Characters/ Environment/ UI/ VFX/ Scenes/ Boot/ MainMenu/ Gameplay/ Loading/ Scripts/ Runtime/ Core/ GameManager.cs SceneLoader.cs ServiceLocator.cs Singleton.cs EventBus.cs Input/ InputReader.cs GameInput.inputactions Audio/ AudioManager.cs SoundLibrary.cs UI/ UIManager.cs ScreenBase.cs Data/ SaveSystem.cs GameSettings.cs Utils/ Extensions.cs Constants.cs Timer.cs Editor/ EditorTools.cs BuildPipeline.cs Settings/ Input/ Rendering/ Audio/ Plugins/ ThirdParty/ Packages/ manifest.json ProjectSettings/ ProjectSettings.asset EditorBuildSettings.asset InputManager.asset TagManager.asset QualitySettings.asset Physics2DSettings.asset (2D) DynamicsManager.asset (3D) ``` ============================================================ PHASE 3: ASSEMBLY DEFINITIONS ============================================================ Create assembly definition files to enforce compilation boundaries: 1. `Assets/_Project/Scripts/Runtime/GameName.Runtime.asmdef` - References: Unity.InputSystem, Unity.TextMeshPro, UniTask (if included) - Auto-referenced: false - Define constraints: UNITY_2022_3_OR_NEWER 2. `Assets/_Project/Scripts/Editor/GameName.Editor.asmdef` - References: GameName.Runtime - Editor-only: true - Include platforms: Editor 3. `Assets/ThirdParty/ThirdParty.asmdef` (if third-party code exists) - Auto-referenced: true - No test assemblies Each asmdef must have: - Proper GUID references - rootNamespace set to project name - allowUnsafeCode: false ============================================================ PHASE 4: INPUT SYSTEM SETUP ============================================================ Configure Unity's new Input System: Step 4.1 -- Input Actions Asset Create `GameInput.inputactions` with action maps: Player Action Map: - Move (Vector2, WASD/Left Stick) - Look (Vector2, Mouse Delta/Right Stick) - Jump (Button, Space/South Button) - Interact (Button, E/West Button) - Attack (Button, Left Click/Right Trigger) - Pause (Button, Escape/Start) UI Action Map: - Navigate (Vector2) - Submit (Button) - Cancel (Button) - Point (Passthrough) - Click (Button) Step 4.2 -- InputReader ScriptableObject Create an InputReader SO that wraps the generated C# input class: - Exposes UnityEvents for each action - Handles Enable/Disable per action map - Provides both event-driven and polling APIs - Implements IInputReader interface for testability ============================================================ PHASE 5: CORE SYSTEMS ============================================================ Step 5.1 -- Scene Management Create SceneLoader.cs: - Async scene loading with progress callback - Additive scene support - Loading screen integration - Scene transition animations (fade in/out) - Boot scene that initializes all managers Create Boot scene with: - GameManager (DontDestroyOnLoad) - AudioManager - UIManager - SceneLoader Step 5.2 -- ScriptableObject Architecture Create base SO templates: - GameConfig SO (global game settings: target FPS, vsync, default volume) - AudioClipReference SO (clip + volume + pitch range + spatial blend) - LevelData SO (scene reference, display name, unlock conditions) Step 5.3 -- Event System Create EventBus.cs: - Static event channel using C# events or ScriptableObject-based events - Type-safe event raising and subscription - Auto-cleanup on scene unload - Debug logging option for tracking event flow Step 5.4 -- Save System Create SaveSystem.cs: - JSON serialization to persistent data path - Versioned save format with migration support - Async save/load - Multiple save slot support - Auto-save timer configuration Step 5.5 -- Audio Manager Create AudioManager.cs: - Music channel with crossfade - SFX pool with spatial audio support - Volume control per channel (master, music, SFX, UI) - Persistent audio settings via SaveSystem - Sound library SO for centralized clip management ============================================================ PHASE 6: GIT CONFIGURATION ============================================================ Step 6.1 -- .gitignore Generate Unity-specific .gitignore: - Library/, Temp/, Obj/, Build/, Builds/, Logs/ - UserSettings/ (except specific files) - *.csproj, *.sln, *.suo, *.user - *.pidb, *.booproj, *.svd, *.pdb - *.apk, *.aab, *.ipa - OS files (.DS_Store, Thumbs.db) - IDE folders (.idea/, .vs/, .vscode/ except settings) - Crash reports: sysinfo.txt, crashlytics* Step 6.2 -- .gitattributes for LFS Configure Git LFS tracking: ``` *.png filter=lfs diff=lfs merge=lfs -text *.jpg filter=lfs diff=lfs merge=lfs -text *.psd filter=lfs diff=lfs merge=lfs -text *.tga filter=lfs diff=lfs merge=lfs -text *.tif filter=lfs diff=lfs merge=lfs -text *.exr filter=lfs diff=lfs merge=lfs -text *.fbx filter=lfs diff=lfs merge=lfs -text *.obj filter=lfs diff=lfs merge=lfs -text *.blend filter=lfs diff=lfs merge=lfs -text *.wav filter=lfs diff=lfs merge=lfs -text *.mp3 filter=lfs diff=lfs merge=lfs -text *.ogg filter=lfs diff=lfs merge=lfs -text *.mp4 filter=lfs diff=lfs merge=lfs -text *.mov filter=lfs diff=lfs merge=lfs -text *.ttf filter=lfs diff=lfs merge=lfs -text *.otf filter=lfs diff=lfs merge=lfs -text *.asset filter=lfs diff=lfs merge=lfs -text *.cubemap filter=lfs diff=lfs merge=lfs -text *.unitypackage filter=lfs diff=lfs merge=lfs -text ``` Also set Unity YAML merge strategy: ``` *.unity merge=unityyamlmerge *.prefab merge=unityyamlmerge *.asset merge=unityyamlmerge ``` ============================================================ PHASE 7: CI/CD PIPELINE ============================================================ Generate GitHub Actions workflow (`.github/workflows/unity-build.yml`): - Trigger on push to main and pull requests - Use GameCI Docker images for Unity builds - Steps: 1. Checkout with LFS 2. Cache Library folder 3. Run EditMode tests 4. Run PlayMode tests 5. Build for target platform(s) (Windows/macOS/Linux/Android/iOS/WebGL) 6. Upload build artifacts - License activation using UNITY_LICENSE secret - Matrix build for multiple platforms if cross-platform ============================================================ PHASE 8: EDITOR CONFIGURATION ============================================================ Step 8.1 -- Project Settings Configure ProjectSettings: - Company Name and Product Name from arguments - Target frame rate: 60 (mobile) or uncapped (PC) - Color space: Linear (3D/HDRP) or Gamma (2D/mobile) - API compatibility: .NET Standard 2.1 - Active Input Handling: Input System Package (New) - IL2CPP for release builds, Mono for debug Step 8.2 -- Quality Settings Configure quality tiers: - Low (mobile): no shadows, simple lighting, reduced particles - Medium: soft shadows, standard lighting - High (PC/console): full shadows, post-processing, high-res textures Step 8.3 -- Tags and Layers Pre-configure useful tags and layers: - Tags: Player, Enemy, Pickup, Projectile, Interactable, Checkpoint - Layers: Default, Player, Enemy, Ground, Obstacle, Trigger, UI, Projectile - Sorting Layers (2D): Background, Midground, Default, Foreground, UI ============================================================ SELF-HEALING VALIDATION (max 3 iterations) ============================================================ After completing the main phases, validate your work: 1. Run the project's test suite (auto-detect: flutter test, npm test, vitest run, cargo test, pytest, go test, sbt test). 2. Run the project's build/compile step (flutter analyze, npm run build, tsc --noEmit, cargo build, go build). 3. If either fails, diagnose the failure from error output. 4. Apply a minimal targeted fix — do NOT refactor unrelated code. 5. Re-run the failing validation. 6. Repeat up to 3 iterations total. IF STILL FAILING after 3 iterations: - Document what was attempted and what failed - Include the error output in the final report - Flag for manual intervention ============================================================ OUTPUT ============================================================ ## Unity Project Scaffolded ### Project: {name} ### Mode: {2D/3D} ### Render Pipeline: {URP/HDRP/Built-in} ### Target: {platform(s)} ### Structure Created | Category | Files | Description | |----------|-------|-------------| | Folders | {N} directories | Full project hierarchy | | Scripts | {N} .cs files | Core systems and boilerplate | | Assembly Defs | {N} .asmdef files | Compilation boundaries | | Input Actions | 1 .inputactions | Player and UI input maps | | ScriptableObjects | {N} .asset files | Configuration data | | Scenes | {N} .unity scenes | Boot, menu, gameplay, loading | | Git Config | 2 files | .gitignore + .gitattributes (LFS) | | CI/CD | 1 workflow | GitHub Actions build pipeline | ### Core Systems Included - Scene management with async loading and transitions - Input System with InputReader SO pattern - Audio manager with music crossfade and SFX pooling - Save system with versioned JSON serialization - Event bus for decoupled communication - Service locator for dependency management ### Setup Instructions 1. Open the project in Unity 2022.3+ (LTS recommended) 2. Import URP/HDRP package if not auto-resolved from manifest 3. Install Git LFS: `git lfs install && git lfs pull` 4. Open `Scenes/Boot/BootScene.unity` as the startup scene 5. Configure build scenes in File > Build Settings NEXT STEPS: - "Run `/game-code-review` to audit the scaffolded architecture." - "Run `/game-performance` to verify the project meets frame budget targets." - "Run `/game-qa` to validate scene loading and null reference safety." DO NOT: - Do NOT create placeholder art assets — leave art folders empty. - Do NOT include any third-party packages beyond Unity built-ins and UPM packages. - Do NOT hardcode platform-specific code without preprocessor directives. - Do NOT use deprecated Unity APIs (UnityEngine.Input, OnGUI, etc.). - Do NOT create MonoBehaviour singletons without DontDestroyOnLoad protection. - Do NOT skip assembly definitions — they are required for compilation isolation. ============================================================ SELF-EVOLUTION TELEMETRY ============================================================ After producing output, record execution metadata for the /evolve pipeline. Check if a project memory directory exists: - Look for the project path in `~/.claude/projects/` - If found, append to `skill-telemetry.md` in that memory directory Entry format: ``` ### /unity-scaffold — {{YYYY-MM-DD}} - Outcome: {{SUCCESS | PARTIAL | FAILED}} - Self-healed: {{yes — what was healed | no}} - Iterations used: {{N}} / {{N max}} - Bottleneck: {{phase that struggled or "none"}} - Suggestion: {{one-line improvement idea for /evolve, or "none"}} ``` Only log if the memory directory exists. Skip silently if not found. Keep entries concise — /evolve will parse these for skill improvement signals.
