unreal c++ agent for Windows
01
Ignite Codeworks is an autonomous agent for Windows that manages your Unreal C++ projects. It edits files, runs builds, and reads documentation while you stay in control.
Shell commands
It runs your build commands and shows the real exit code.
Web search
It fetches official documentation pages to answer your specific coding questions.
Features
- Filesread, write, edit, delete, move, copy, list, grep, and glob operations inside the chat folder.
- Shellruns terminal commands like builds and linters, judging success by the real exit code.
- Websearches the web and fetches official documentation pages to read relevant text.
- Screenshots and imagesgenerates image files and reads text from screenshots using OCR.
- Orchestrationruns parallel sub-agents, sends steps to bigger models, and manages version control.
- Approval modesAuto-run executes immediately, Ask first pauses before changes, Plan only writes a plan.
- Cronruns a prompt on a schedule.
- Modelsconnects to cloud APIs or runs a local model on your PC for privacy.
Workflows
The agent maps your Source folder, finds build files, and edits code while you review the results.

Walkthroughs
Fix a build error
The agent uses web_search and http_get to fetch Epic's documentation pages, so you can learn unreal without being overwhelmed by the vast amount of available resources. Read the docs. list_dir and glob map the Source folder to find Build.cs and Target.cs files. read_file and grep follow a class through the code to locate specific details. write_file and edit_file change C++ files, showing a diff before you accept. The Shell runs your build command and shows the real exit code. Review the changes in Ask first mode before accepting anything in your unreal c++ project. You can also learn how to lower packaged quality by checking the build logs.
Create a new actor
The agent creates new C++ header and source files for your actor and edits Build.cs only when a new dependency is needed so the compiler knows about it. Ask first. The Shell command runs your own build command to compile the code. You review the file contents and the build output before changes are finalized. This workflow helps you extend your game logic without manual file management in ue5 c++. The agent does not click through Unreal Editor and cannot see a running game. This approach keeps your project organized and ready for the next build step. Blueprints best practices inheritance composition guide how you structure your code for clarity.
What Ignite Codeworks does not do
It is not a plugin of Unreal Editor and cannot see a running game; use it only on your own projects and assets or with permission; the agent does not enforce scope.
