UnrealRemoteMCP MCP Server

What is UnrealRemoteMCP?

UnrealRemoteMCP is a plugin that implements an MCP Server (Model Context Protocol) using Unreal Engine’s built-in Python scripting. It runs a Streamable HTTP server inside the Unreal Editor, allowing AI clients to connect and assist developers with tasks like debugging, batch processing, and automation workflows.

How to use UnrealRemoteMCP?

Clone the repository to the Unreal Engine plugins directory, install Python dependencies (httpx, mcp[cli], anyio, pywin32) using uv or pip, enable the plugin in Edit → Plugins, set MCP Setting → Enable to True, then start the server with the console command MCP.Start (or enable AutoStart). Connect any MCP client (e.g., Cursor, Cherry Studio) using Streamable HTTP to http://localhost:<port>/mcp.
