What is it?

A developer console for Unity. Slap a [Command] attribute on any method or property, and you can execute it from a command field in the editor and in-game. No setup required. It was born out of wanting a faster way to test and debug during game development.

  • Turn any method or property into a command with a single attribute
  • Works in both the editor console and in-game
  • Suggestions and auto-completion with keyboard navigation
  • Supports static and non-static methods, overloads, and optional parameters
  • Add and remove commands dynamically at runtime
  • Modern UI built with UI Toolkit, fully customizable

Architecture

Built around a custom parser that tokenizes command strings, a registry that discovers commands at startup, and an extensible framework where users create new commands by implementing a simple interface. The built-in commands use the same public API that users have access to. Backed by unit and integration tests in our dev repo.
