# Unreal Automation

Tools for validating the active MCP server and driving Unreal Engine's native
Automation Test framework from an MCP client.

## Plugin capability preflight

Call `preflight_plugins` before workflows that depend on optional engine
plugins. The tool accepts only `static_groom_import`, `usd_import`, or
`movie_render_queue` and returns `required_plugins`, the enabled required
subset, exact `missing_plugins`, `ready`, and one structured `next_action`.
It is read-only: it never edits the project descriptor or enables plugins.

## Scripts

- `preflight_plugins`
- `mcp_self_check`
- `list_automation_tests`
- `queue_automation_tests`
