Arenula (retired)

This project is retired and the repository is archived. Use the MCP server that ships with s&box instead: see the official MCP Server docs.

Why

The s&box editor has shipped its own MCP server since engine build 26.07.08. Since build 26.10.13, agents connect to it through sbox-cli, which ships with every s&box install in <engine>/bin/managed/. Its tools cover scenes, components, assets, Hammer maps, play mode, the console, compile results and screenshots, and projects can add their own tools with the [McpTool] attribute, so this project's editor plugin is no longer needed.

Moving over

  1. Remove this project's entries from your MCP client config (.mcp.json in your s&box project, or wherever you added them): editor (SSE on http://localhost:8098/sse), api and docs.

  2. Delete the editor plugin from your project: Libraries/arenula_mcp/.

  3. Register sbox-cli with your client, from your project folder, while the editor has the project open. For Claude Code:

    claude mcp add sbox -- "<engine>/bin/managed/sbox-cli.exe" --connect

    <engine> is the folder containing sbox.exe. Other MCP clients run the same command as a stdio server. The editor accepts connections unless Project Settings > AI > Enable MCP Communication is off.

  4. Only a few entry points are listed up front; agents find the rest with search_tools.

For the agent instructions that ship with the engine, run sbox-cli --skill. The docs page covers writing your own tools; at the time of writing, its connection steps still describe the fixed-port HTTP server that build 26.10.13 replaced with sbox-cli.
