  • SKILL.md covers When to Use and Using the Result

What it does

Finding Simulink Examples is an agent skill from matlab/simulink-agentic-toolkit. Find, show, open, or identify shipped MathWorks example models that demonstrate a concept, block, or application domain, and return the command to open them.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files, including scripts (for example `manifest.yaml`).

The repository describes itself as: The Simulink Agentic Toolkit gives your AI agent both the tools and the expertise to work effectively with Simulink and Model-Based Design.

Example prompts

  • “/finding-simulink-examples”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 455dded. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships 1 file in scripts/, which the agent can run.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Finding Simulink Examples loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 46 tokens; SKILL.md has 596 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~46
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.1k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 596 words (~1,116 tokens).

“Use this skill to find examples and models in the MathWorks Examples database.”

SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Finding Simulink Examples is instructions for the agent only.

Does Finding Simulink Examples access the network?

SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.

Is Finding Simulink Examples safe to install?

Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. The check reads SKILL.md only: the scripts in the folder are not scanned, so read them before running anything.
