In Unity 2021, there is a way to set a gameobject in the Hierarchy as the scene's Default Parent, which would auto parent new objects to that gameobject. It's pretty useful, but I have no idea how to do that when using a MenuItem to create a custom gameobject. There doesn't seem to be a way to "get" the current scene's Default Gameobject, but I've seen some third party assets do this.
How can this be done? Thanks.

I've never heard of such feature in any of the unity versions. Are you sure it wasn't an extension/plugin in the first place? Can you share docs page mentioning the feature?
https://docs.unity3d.com/6000.0/Documentation/ScriptReference/EditorUtility.SetDefaultParentObject.html
Is this what you refer to? Seems to work the same in unity 6.

Couldn't find a doc exactly, but here's a video of it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=scLdlsqfRlw
I don't know if it was in any versions prior to 2021 but that was when I noticed it

Yeah, but I wasn't sure if there was a way to make it so that in a custom editor script, if I create a gameobject, that gameobject should become the child of the Default Parent. From what I've seen, there's a way to "Set" the default parent via script, but not a way to get it.
