What it does
Unreal Asset Operation is an agent skill from Italink/UnrealClientProtocol. Query and manage UE assets via UCP. Use when the user asks about asset search, dependencies, referencers, asset CRUD, asset management, getting selected/current assets, opening/closing asset editors, or any editor asset operation in Unreal Engine.
Its SKILL.md is about 4.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Game Development, covering Game development. It works with Unreal Engine. The repository describes itself as: Lightweight UE5 plugin that exposes Unreal Engine's reflection system over TCP+JSON — let AI agents call UFunctions, read/write UProperties, and inspect any UObject in a running… The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- The user asks about asset search
- Asset management
- Getting selected/current assets
- Opening/closing asset editors
Example prompts
- “/unreal-asset-operation”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 7f0a56e. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are json).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Unreal Asset Operation loads about 4.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 68 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,067 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

- description
- Query and manage UE assets via UCP. Use when the user asks about asset search, dependencies, referencers, asset CRUD, asset management, getting selected/current assets, opening/closing asset editors, or any editor asset operation in Unreal Engine.
Unreal Asset Operations
Operate on Unreal Engine assets through UCP's call command. The core approach is to obtain the IAssetRegistry instance and call its rich API directly, combined with engine asset libraries for CRUD operations.
Prerequisite: The unreal-client-protocol skill must be available and the UE editor must be running with the UCP plugin enabled.
Custom Function Library
UAssetEditorOperationLibrary (Editor)
CDO Path: /Script/UnrealClientProtocolEditor.Default__AssetEditorOperationLibrary
| Function | Params | Returns | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
GetAssetRegistry | (none) | IAssetRegistry object | Returns the AssetRegistry instance. Call its functions directly via UCP call. |
ForceDeleteAssets | AssetPaths (array of string) | int32 — number deleted | Force-deletes assets ignoring references. Wraps ObjectTools::ForceDeleteObjects. |
FixupReferencers | AssetPaths (array of string) | bool | Cleans up redirectors left after rename/consolidate. Wraps IAssetTools::FixupReferencers. |
Getting the AssetRegistry
{"object":"/Script/UnrealClientProtocolEditor.Default__AssetEditorOperationLibrary","function":"GetAssetRegistry"}The returned object path can then be used as the object parameter for subsequent calls to IAssetRegistry functions.
Alternatively, you can use the engine helper directly:
{"object":"/Script/AssetRegistry.Default__AssetRegistryHelpers","function":"GetAssetRegistry"}Force-deleting assets
{"object":"/Script/UnrealClientProtocolEditor.Default__AssetEditorOperationLibrary","function":"ForceDeleteAssets","params":{"AssetPaths":["/Game/OldAssets/M_Unused","/Game/OldAssets/T_Unused"]}}Fixing up redirectors
After renaming or consolidating assets, redirectors may be left behind. Use FixupReferencers to resolve them:
{"object":"/Script/UnrealClientProtocolEditor.Default__AssetEditorOperationLibrary","function":"FixupReferencers","params":{"AssetPaths":["/Game/Materials/M_OldName"]}}Engine Built-in Asset Libraries
IAssetRegistry (via GetAssetRegistry)

Common Patterns
Browse content directory
{"object":"/Script/EditorScriptingUtilities.Default__EditorAssetLibrary","function":"ListAssets","params":{"DirectoryPath":"/Game/Materials","bRecursive":true,"bIncludeFolder":false}}Duplicate and rename an asset
First duplicate, then rename (run as separate calls):
{"object":"/Script/EditorScriptingUtilities.Default__EditorAssetLibrary","function":"DuplicateAsset","params":{"SourceAssetPath":"/Game/Materials/M_Base","DestinationAssetPath":"/Game/Materials/M_BaseCopy"}}{"object":"/Script/EditorScriptingUtilities.Default__EditorAssetLibrary","function":"RenameAsset","params":{"SourceAssetPath":"/Game/Materials/M_BaseCopy","DestinationAssetPath":"/Game/Materials/M_NewName"}}Delete an asset
{"object":"/Script/EditorScriptingUtilities.Default__EditorAssetLibrary","function":"DeleteAsset","params":{"AssetPathToDelete":"/Game/Materials/M_Unused"}}Force-delete assets ignoring references
{"object":"/Script/UnrealClientProtocolEditor.Default__AssetEditorOperationLibrary","function":"ForceDeleteAssets","params":{"AssetPaths":["/Game/OldAssets/M_Deprecated"]}}Query dependencies via AssetRegistry
First get the registry, then call GetDependencies on it (run as separate calls):
{"object":"/Script/AssetRegistry.Default__AssetRegistryHelpers","function":"GetAssetRegistry"}Then on the returned registry path:
{"object":"<returned_registry_path>","function":"GetDependencies","params":{"PackageName":"/Game/Materials/M_Example","DependencyOptions":{},"OutDependencies":[]}}Find all materials in project
{"object":"/Script/AssetRegistry.Default__AssetRegistryHelpers","function":"GetAssetRegistry"}Then on the returned registry:
{"object":"<registry_path>","function":"GetAssetsByClass","params":{"ClassPathName":"/Script/Engine.Material","OutAssetData":[],"bSearchSubClasses":false}}Save all dirty assets in a directory
{"object":"/Script/EditorScriptingUtilities.Default__EditorAssetLibrary","function":"SaveDirectory","params":{"DirectoryPath":"/Game/Materials","bOnlyIfIsDirty":true,"bRecursive":true}}Consolidate and clean up
Replace references to old assets with a canonical asset, then fix redirectors:
{"object":"/Script/EditorScriptingUtilities.Default__EditorAssetLibrary","function":"ConsolidateAssets","params":{"AssetToConsolidateTo":"/Game/Materials/M_Master.M_Master","AssetsToConsolidate":["/Game/Materials/M_Duplicate1.M_Duplicate1","/Game/Materials/M_Duplicate2.M_Duplicate2"]}}{"object":"/Script/UnrealClientProtocolEditor.Default__AssetEditorOperationLibrary","function":"FixupReferencers","params":{"AssetPaths":["/Game/Materials/M_Duplicate1","/Game/Materials/M_Duplicate2"]}}© Italink, MIT.
