# Editor / Application / Get State
Returns available information about 'UnityEditor.EditorApplication'. Use it to get information about the current state of the Unity Editor application. Such as: playmode, paused state, compilation state, etc.
## Behavior
Snapshots Editor state via `EditorStatsData.FromEditor()` on the main thread and returns the result.
## How to Call
```bash
unity-mcp-cli run-tool editor-application-get-state --input '{
"nothing": "string_value"
}'
```
> For complex input (multi-line strings, code), save the JSON to a file and use:
> ```bash
> unity-mcp-cli run-tool editor-application-get-state --input-file args.json
> ```
>
> Or pipe via stdin (recommended):
> ```bash
> unity-mcp-cli run-tool editor-application-get-state --input-file - <<'EOF'
> {"param": "value"}
> EOF
> ```
### Troubleshooting
If `unity-mcp-cli` is not found, either install it globally (`npm install -g unity-mcp-cli`) or use `npx unity-mcp-cli` instead.
Read the /unity-initial-setup skill for detailed installation instructions.
