# List All Shaders

List All Shaders enumerates all shaders available in a Unity project's assets and packages, returning their names sorted alphabetically. Use it to discover a valid shaderName for the assets-material-create tool.

**Install:**

```bash
npx degit https://github.com/IvanMurzak/Unity-MCP/tree/main/Unity-MCP-Plugin/.claude/skills/assets-shader-list-all ~/.claude/skills/assets-shader-list-all
```

## README

# Assets / List Shaders

List all available shaders in the project assets and packages. Returns their names. Use this to find a shader name for 'assets-material-create' tool.

## Behavior

Enumerates shaders via `ShaderUtils.GetAllShaders`, filters out nulls, and returns the names alphabetically sorted.

## How to Call

```bash
unity-mcp-cli run-tool assets-shader-list-all --input '{
  "nothing": "string_value"
}'
```

> For complex input (multi-line strings, code), save the JSON to a file and use:
> ```bash
> unity-mcp-cli run-tool assets-shader-list-all --input-file args.json
> ```
>
> Or pipe via stdin (recommended):
> ```bash
> unity-mcp-cli run-tool assets-shader-list-all --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 |
|------|------|----------|-------------|
