npx --yes uloop-cli@2.2.0 get-hierarchy

Get Unity Hierarchy structure from the whole scene, a root path, or selected Hierarchy objects.

Use this for hierarchy structure, especially descendants under the current selection. Use find-game-objects --search-mode Selected when you need selected object details or component properties.

npx --yes uloop-cli@2.2.0 get-hierarchy [options]

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
--root-path	string	-	Root GameObject path to start from
--max-depth	integer	-1	Maximum depth (-1 for unlimited)
--include-components	boolean	true	Include component information
--include-inactive	boolean	true	Include inactive GameObjects
--include-paths	boolean	false	Include full path information
--use-components-lut	string	auto	Use LUT for components (auto, true, false)

Examples

# Get entire hierarchy
npx --yes uloop-cli@2.2.0 get-hierarchy

# Get hierarchy from specific root
npx --yes uloop-cli@2.2.0 get-hierarchy --root-path "Canvas/UI"

# Limit depth
npx --yes uloop-cli@2.2.0 get-hierarchy --max-depth 2

# Without components
npx --yes uloop-cli@2.2.0 get-hierarchy --include-components false

# Get hierarchy from currently selected GameObjects
npx --yes uloop-cli@2.2.0 get-hierarchy --use-selection

Output

Returns JSON with:

• message (string): Human-readable guidance pointing at the saved file
• hierarchyFilePath (string): Filesystem path to the JSON file that contains the actual hierarchy data

The hierarchy itself is not in the response — it is written to the file at hierarchyFilePath. Open that file to read the Context and Hierarchy payload (GameObject tree, components, etc.).
