Godot MCP

What it does

Godot MCP bridges AI assistants and the Godot game engine via the Model Context Protocol. It enables AI tools like Claude, Cursor, and Cline to launch the Godot editor, run projects with debug output capture, manage scenes and nodes, and inspect project metadata — all through conversational commands. This creates a tight feedback loop where AI can see actual Godot output and errors, leading to more accurate code generation and debugging assistance.

• launch_editor — Open the Godot editor for a specific project
• run_project — Execute a project in debug mode with output capture

• get_project_info — Get project metadata and structure
• create_scene — Create a new scene with a specified root node type
• add_node — Add a node to an existing scene with custom properties
• edit_node — Modify node properties (position, scale, textures, etc.)
• remove_node — Remove a node from a scene
• load_sprite — Load a texture into a Sprite2D node
• export_mesh_library — Convert a 3D scene to a MeshLibrary resource
• save_scene — Save a scene, optionally as a new variant
