MCP Tools Reference

The IWSDK MCP server exposes 32 tools organized into 9 categories. These tools give AI agents full control over the emulated XR runtime, the browser, the Three.js scene, and the ECS simulation.

Gamepad

Controllers only — not available for hand tracking.

xr_get_gamepad_state

Get the full gamepad state including all buttons and axes.

Button indices: 0=trigger, 1=squeeze, 2=thumbstick press, 3=A/X, 4=B/Y, 5=thumbrest.

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
device	string	Yes	controller-left or controller-right

xr_set_gamepad_state

Set gamepad button and axis values by index.

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
device	string	Yes	controller-left or controller-right
buttons	[{index, value, touched?}]	No	Button states to set

Device State

xr_get_device_state

Get comprehensive state of the XR device including headset position, controller/hand transforms, input mode, FOV, and stereo settings.

Parameters: None

xr_set_device_state

Set device state. When called with no state parameter, resets everything to defaults.

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
state	object	No	Partial device state with headset, inputMode, stereoEnabled, fov, controllers, hands

Browser

browser_screenshot

Capture a screenshot of the browser. Returns the image as inline base64 PNG.

Parameters: None

browser_get_console_logs

Get console logs from the browser with optional filtering. Excludes debug level by default.

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
count	number	No	Maximum number of logs to return (most recent N)
level	string or string[]	No	Filter by level: log, info, warn, error, debug
pattern	string	No	Regex pattern to filter log messages
since	number	No	Return logs since this timestamp (ms since epoch)

browser_reload_page

Reload the browser page to reset application state.

Parameters: None

Scene Inspection

These tools require IWSDK's MCPRuntime (automatically available in IWSDK projects).

scene_get_hierarchy

Get the Three.js scene hierarchy as a JSON tree. Returns object names, UUIDs, types, and entity indices where available.
