uloop launch
Launch Unity Editor with the correct version for a project.
uloop launch is not fire-and-forget. When Unity needs to start or restart, the command waits
until Unity is actually ready for CLI operations before it exits.
Usage
uloop launch [project-path] [options]
Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|-----------|------|-------------|
| project-path | string | Optional. Use only when the target Unity project is not in the current directory. |
| -r, --restart | boolean | Kill running Unity and restart |
| -p, --platform <P> | string | Build target (e.g., StandaloneOSX, Android, iOS) |
| --max-depth <N> | number | Search depth when project-path is omitted (default: 3, -1 for unlimited) |
| -a, --add-unity-hub | boolean | Add to Unity Hub only (does not launch) |
| -f, --favorite | boolean | Add to Unity Hub as favorite (does not launch) |
Examples
# Search for Unity project in current directory and launch
uloop launch
# Launch specific project
uloop launch /path/to/project
# Restart Unity (kill existing and relaunch)
uloop launch -r
# Launch with build target
uloop launch -p Android
# Add project to Unity Hub without launching
uloop launch -a
Output
- Prints detected Unity version
- Prints project path
- If Unity is already running, focuses the existing window
- If launching, waits until Unity finishes startup and the CLI can connect to the project
