Choose unity-mcp if…

Choose caveman if…
- caveman is primarily JavaScript; unity-mcp is C#.
- Tags unique to caveman: caveman, claude-code, prompt-engineering, tokens.
- When you need to significantly cut down on token usage in AI interactions, up to 65%, without losing essential information content.
When NOT to use caveman
