Install

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

When to ask the AI for it

Ask when you want the AI to survey the Control Rig assets in a project or report a rig’s controls, bones, and hierarchy before you author animation.

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

Example prompts

Copy-pasteable first requests. Start with one, verify it in the editor, then build up.

  1. List every Control Rig blueprint in the project and show me the controls of CR_Mannequin.
  2. What Control Rig is bound to the Hero actor, and how many bones does it have?
