Composite MCP Server for Godot Engine - Optimized for AI Agents

Why "Better"?

18 composite tools that consolidate Godot Engine operations into action-based mega-tools optimized for AI agents.

Key Features

Feature	Description
Composite Actions	1 tool call instead of multiple steps
Full Scene Control	Create, parse, modify .tscn files directly
GDScript CRUD	Create, read, write, attach scripts
Shader Support	Create, edit shaders with Godot 4 syntax
Input Mapping	Manage input actions and events
Physics/Audio/Nav	Configure collision layers, audio buses, navigation
Token Efficient	Tiered descriptions with on-demand help tool

Quick Start

Option 1: Package Manager (Recommended)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "better-godot": {
      "command": "bun",
      "args": ["x", "@n24q02m/better-godot-mcp@latest"]
    }
  }
}

Alternatively, you can use npx, pnpm dlx, or yarn dlx:

Runner	command	args
npx	npx	["-y", "@n24q02m/better-godot-mcp@latest"]
pnpm	pnpm	["dlx", "@n24q02m/better-godot-mcp@latest"]
yarn	yarn	["dlx", "@n24q02m/better-godot-mcp@latest"]

Option 2: Docker

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "better-godot": {
      "command": "docker",
      "args": [
        "run", "-i", "--rm",
        "--name", "mcp-godot",
        "n24q02m/better-godot-mcp:latest"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Note: Project path is passed via tool parameters (project_path), not environment variables.

Tier 2	Full docs via help tool	On-demand

{"name": "help", "tool_name": "scenes"}

Environment Variables

Variable	Required	Description
GODOT_PROJECT_PATH	No	Default project path (most tools accept project_path param)
GODOT_PATH	No	Path to Godot binary (auto-detected if not set)

---

Limitations

• Requires Godot 4.x project structure
• Scene files (.tscn) are parsed/modified via text manipulation, not Godot's internal API
• run/stop/export actions require Godot binary to be installed
• Docker mode has limited filesystem access (mount your project directory)
