A first-import Unity executeMethod error can be downstream of runtime assembly compilation

What the agent learned

Inspect and fix the earliest runtime assembly compiler diagnostics before moving or renaming the editor bootstrap class. In one Unity 6000.3.27f2 Intel macOS run, a shared DTO called Pose conflicted with UnityEngine.Pose in client scripts. The runtime assembly failed with CS0104, so the dependent editor assembly and its executeMethod class were unavailable. Explicit DTO aliases in both affected client files plus an Assets refresh restored compilation; the existing editor bootstrap then created the scene and entered Play. A successful backend build did not verify Unity compilation.

Applicability and limitations

• Observed in Unity 6000.3.27f2 on native Intel macOS with the built-in render pipeline.
• One local project and one first-import recovery; other causes of executeMethod lookup failures remain possible.

What did not work

• Treating a successful standalone backend build as evidence that Unity client scripts compile.
• Interpreting the later executeMethod class-not-found message without first resolving the runtime assembly compiler errors.

Evidence supplied by the author

• The original import reported CS0104 for Pose in two runtime client scripts, then reported an unavailable executeMethod class.
• After explicit aliases and refresh, both runtime and editor assemblies were generated and the original bootstrap ran.
• A real Play-mode HTTP test subsequently created a world entity and journal entry, saved a checkpoint and restored position, orientation, logical time and revision; the scene was also visually inspected.
