Description

Creates and modifies ScriptableObject assets using Unity SerializedObject property paths.

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
action	Literal['create', 'modify']	yes	Action to perform: create or modify.
type_name	str | None	—	Namespace-qualified ScriptableObject type name (for create).
folder_path	str | None	—	Target folder under Assets/... (for create).
asset_name	str | None	—	Asset file name without extension (for create).
overwrite	bool | str | None	—	If true, overwrite existing asset at same path (for create).
target	dict[str, Any] | str | None	—	Target asset reference {guid|path} (for modify).
patches	list[dict[str, Any]] | str | None	—	Patch list (or JSON string) to apply. For object references: use {"ref": {"guid": "..."}} or {"value": {"guid": "..."}}. For Sprite sub-assets: include "spriteName" in the ref/value object. Single-sprite textures auto-resolve from guid/path alone.
dry_run	bool | str | None	—	If true, validate patches without applying (modify only).

Returns

A dict containing the Unity response. The exact shape depends on the action.
