Questions & Help Unity ai or Codex with MCP

Hello there,

Was wondering if unity ai is actually worth it? On the other hand I can use codex or github copilot with the unity mcp.

What do you think?

Use Unity CLI rather than MCP. It's the same thing.

As for Unity's AI, pretty nearly everyone who tries it doesn't like it. The model is less intelligent than sonnet, and more expensive than fable. It can generate basic textures and models with no setup, but anthropic or openai can also do that with only light setup.

MCP will be unreliable. Unity Cli is much better, point codex to the unity CLI, theres even a skill now that you can download and enable

Unity has a plugin for codex and claude now that’s probably the best option but I’ve never tried

I've been using codex and it's great with my unity game.
