# Unity Documentation Lookup

Efficiently search local Unity documentation to verify API signatures and parameters.
**Supports both core Unity APIs and package documentation** (Cinemachine, Input System, etc.).

## Usage

```bash
# Look up a core Unity class
python3 scripts/search_unity_docs.py Transform

# Look up a specific method
python3 scripts/search_unity_docs.py Rigidbody AddForce

# Look up package documentation (Cinemachine, Input System, etc.)
python3 scripts/search_unity_docs.py CinemachineCamera

# Search for APIs by name (searches both core and packages)
python3 scripts/search_unity_docs.py --search Input
```

## When to Use

- Uncertain about API parameters or signatures
- Need Unity 6-specific features
- Complex APIs with multiple overloads
- User asks to verify documentation
- **Working with package APIs** (Cinemachine, Input System, AI Navigation, etc.)

Do NOT use for common APIs you already know.

## Features

### Core Unity API
- Auto-detects latest Unity installation
- Extracts descriptions, signatures, parameters

### Package Documentation (NEW!)
- Searches `Library/PackageCache/*/Documentation~/*.md`
- Parses markdown tables for properties
- Shows: Properties, Targets, Usage, Examples

## Notes

- Automatically tries core Unity API first, then packages
- Package docs only available from Unity project directory
- Use `--search` when unsure of exact name
