What it does
Gameobject Set Parent is an agent skill from IvanMurzak/Unity-MCP. Reparent a batch of GameObjects under a new parent in the currently opened Prefab or active Scene. Per-item failures are reported in the returned status string instead of aborting the batch. Use 'gameobject-find' to locate the GameObjects first.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k 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. It works with Model Context Protocol. The repository describes itself as: AI Skills, MCP Tools, and CLI for Unity Engine. Full AI develop and test loop. Use cli for quick setup. Efficient token usage, advanced tools. Any C method may be turned into a… The licence is Apache-2.0.

Requirements

What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4c8056f. 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
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
npm
npx
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npm and npx, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.
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
Gameobject Set Parent loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 67 tokens; SKILL.md has 213 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Always· name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~67
When it runs· the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.1k
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.

name
gameobject-set-parent
description
Reparent a batch of GameObjects under a new parent in the currently opened Prefab or active Scene. Per-item failures are reported in the returned status string instead of aborting the batch. Use 'gameobject-find' to locate the GameObjects first.
GameObject / Set Parent
Set parent GameObject to list of GameObjects in opened Prefab or in a Scene. Use 'gameobject-find' tool to find the target GameObjects first.
Inputs
gameObjectRefs — list of children to reparent.
parentGameObjectRef — new parent. Must resolve, otherwise the call returns early with an error string.
worldPositionStays (default true) — preserve world-space transform when reparenting (passed to Transform.SetParent).
Behavior
Iterates gameObjectRefs and reparents each one independently; per-item resolve errors are appended to the returned status string instead of throwing. After the loop, if at least one reparent succeeded, marks the active scene dirty and repaints editor windows.
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.
