Claude or ChatGPT with Godot
Read from each tool’s own website on 1 October 2026. Where a site does not say, the table says “Not stated”. The pages each row was read from are listed on the row.
| Tool | Whose AI | What the tool charges | Which engine | Read from |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Flockbay | Your Claude Pro or Max account, through Claude Code in the app, or your ChatGPT Plus-or-higher account, through the bundled Codex engine. Your own agent over MCP is the same price. Claude Free and ChatGPT Free do not run here. | $0. More models are optional, a credit reload at API prices. | The official Godot release, in the Godot editor. Not a fork. Windows today. The Mac release is later. | Pricing · Your own agent |
| Summer Engine | Hosted Summer AI, or your own Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor agent over MCP. The homepage says you keep the agent you already use, and that MCP is free. | The desktop app is free. Hosted Summer AI is Pro at $20 a month, Pro+ at $60, and Ultra at $200. MCP is free. | A fully custom engine, more than a million lines of custom code, that follows Godot upstream. The stated technical base is 4.7.2. | Homepage · Pricing · Godot compatibility |

Ziva supports Godot 4.2 and later on Windows, macOS, and Linux. It is a plugin, not an engine. | Homepage · Docs · Claude or ChatGPT with Godot |

When another tool is the right one
A Mac, today. Ziva’s homepage says Godot 4.2 and later on Windows, macOS, and Linux. Summer’s homepage offers macOS and Windows downloads. Flockbay runs on Windows until the Mac release.
A Godot project you want to keep in the Godot editor you already installed. Ziva is a plugin in that editor. Flockbay’s editor is the Godot editor inside the app.
A code editor, and no engine bundled with it. Cursor’s own pages do not name a game engine. If you already have Godot and you only want the agent, Cursor is the smaller install.
Summer’s hosted AI, in Summer’s engine. The homepage calls that engine fully custom, says the app is free, and puts hosted AI on the paid plans.
Three ways in, and none of them is a server you install
Claude Code runs inside the app, on Claude Pro or Max. You sign in on Anthropic’s page. Claude Free does not run here. The long version is Claude for Godot and how to make games in Claude Code.
ChatGPT runs in the same composer, through the bundled Codex engine, on Plus or higher. ChatGPT Free does not run here. How to make games in Codex is that setup.
An agent you already run, Cursor included, connects over MCP. There is one server. There is no Node install and no choice of servers. Godot over MCP and Cursor for Godot have the steps.

The editor is the official Godot release
The project is a real Godot project: scenes, GDScript, the Godot editor. The engine is the official Godot release, not a fork. You can open the folder in Godot. Flockbay runs on Windows today. The Mac release is later.
Building needs a connection. The chat and the world data come over the network. The game you built runs locally on the bundled Godot.

The other page is a setup guide
On 19 September 2026 Ziva published [How do I use Claude or ChatGPT together with Godot?](https://ziva.sh/blogs/use-claude-or-chatgpt-with-godot) It is a setup: paste code into a chat, run Claude Code or Codex in the project folder, or add an MCP server. Summer’s docs send Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor at Summer’s own MCP. A second copy of those steps will not outrank them.
What those pages do not say is the row above. Flockbay charges $0. Claude Pro or Max, or ChatGPT Plus or higher, is the account. Claude Free and ChatGPT Free do not run here. The engine is the official Godot release.
