## Install

Requires the base plugin UnrealMCP. After installing, reopen the editor so the new tool family appears in the agent's list.

```bash
unreal-mcp-cli install-extension com.ivanmurzak.unreal-ai-niagara <UEProject>
```

## When to ask the AI for it

Ask when you want to survey a project’s Niagara systems or drop a VFX system into the level for a quick look.

Not sure if it's installed? Ask the agent "Do you have Niagara tools available?" — the niagara- tools only exist when the package is present.

## Example prompts

1. List every Niagara system and show me the emitters in NS_Fire.
2. Spawn NS_Fire at the world origin.
