## Choose when

### Choose mcp-unity if…

- mcp-unity is primarily C#; agent-toolkit is Python.
- Tags unique to mcp-unity: claudecode, codex-cli, copilot, cursor.
- Also covers LLM Frameworks.
- When developing games in the Unity Editor and needing integration with specific Language-Modeling Tools like Cursor or Claude Code.

### Choose agent-toolkit if…

- agent-toolkit is primarily Python; mcp-unity is C#.
- Tags unique to agent-toolkit: agent-skills, ai, automation, claude.
- Also covers AI Agents.
- For enhancing specific tasks like documentation, planning, and workflow management

## When NOT to use mcp-unity

- For users who do not use Unity as their primary game development platform, as the tool is specifically designed for integration with Unity Editor.
- When your project does not benefit from integration of LLMs such as Cursor or Claude Code that MCP-Unity supports. Use it only if these specific tools contribute to your workflow.

## When NOT to use agent-toolkit

- If you seek support for languages other than Python
- When working with non-Python based coding agents that require specialized skills not covered by this toolkit
- In cases where custom, from-scratch development is preferred over using pre-packaged scripts
