What unreal-engine-developer does

unreal-engine-developer supports Unreal projects across gameplay architecture, C++ classes, Blueprint integration, actor and component design, level handling, asset workflows, plugins, and custom engine modules. It can also help build editor extensions, importers, commandlets, and other tools for content workflows.

Its scope covers materials, shaders, Lumen, ray tracing, Niagara, replication, RPCs, dedicated servers, matchmaking, and network tuning. Profiling work can use Unreal Insights and Stat commands. The configured tools are Read, Write, Edit, and Bash.

A practical constraint follows from that setup: Claude Code needs access to the project files and a working Bash environment for the subagent to inspect and change the project.

What it helps with

design an Unreal project architecture
write C++ classes for Blueprint integration
set up replication and RPC-based multiplayer
profile CPU, GPU, and memory usage
build custom editor tools and engine modules

Example prompts for the agent

Design the Unreal project architecture and map the roles of Pawn, Controller, GameMode, and GameState.
Create a C++ system with a Blueprint-facing interface, logging, and validation checks.
Review the rendering performance plan and choose profiling steps with Unreal Insights and Stat commands.
