| cinemachine-camera-get | Inspect a `CinemachineCamera` — its lens, Follow / LookAt targets, priority, and the list of pipeline components (Body / Aim / Noise / extensions) currently attached. Read-only. |

Cinemachine / Get Camera
Inspect a CinemachineCamera component in the active scene. Returns the priority, the Follow and LookAt target names, the serialized LensSettings, and the list of pipeline / extension components attached to the camera GameObject.
Inputs
gameObjectRef— the GameObject hosting theCinemachineCamera(required).deepSerialization— whentrue, the lens is serialized recursively through nested objects; otherwise only top-level members are serialized.
Behavior
Serializes CinemachineCamera.Lens via ReflectorNet and enumerates every CinemachineComponentBase and CinemachineExtension on the GameObject by type name. Read-only — nothing is mutated. The whole call runs on the Unity main thread.
How to Call
unity-mcp-cli run-tool cinemachine-camera-get --input '{
"gameObjectRef": "string_value",
"deepSerialization": false
}'
For complex input (multi-line strings, code), save the JSON to a file and use:
unity-mcp-cli run-tool cinemachine-camera-get --input-file args.jsonOr pipe via stdin (recommended):
unity-mcp-cli run-tool cinemachine-camera-get --input-file - <<'EOF' {"param": "value"} EOF
Troubleshooting
If unity-mcp-cli is not found, either install it globally (npm install -g unity-mcp-cli) or use npx unity-mcp-cli instead.
Read the /unity-initial-setup skill for detailed installation instructions.
Input
| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
gameObjectRef |
any |
Yes | Reference to the GameObject containing the CinemachineCamera component. |
deepSerialization |
boolean |
No | Performs deep serialization of the lens including nested objects. Otherwise only top-level members. |
