What it does
Matlab Apply Theme is an agent skill from matlab/matlab-agentic-toolkit. Style MATLAB charts and figures. colororder palettes for chart series colors, colormap selection, brand color organization, and the R2025a Theme API for uifigure apps (dark mode with fliplightness, ThemeChangedFcn, uistyle, component colors). Use when customizing chart colors, applying a color palette, organizing brand colors, implementing dark mode, or importing an external color scheme. Triggers: theme, dark mode, brand colors, colororder, colormap, palette, fliplightness, color scheme, styling, chart colors.
Its SKILL.md is about 2.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 5 other files, including reference files (for example `manifest.yaml`, `references/component-colors.md` and `references/external-schemes.md`).
It sits in Frontend & Design, covering Theming and dark mode and Logo and visual identity. The repository describes itself as: The MATLAB Agentic Toolkit brings proven MATLAB capabilities to AI agents, making engineering and scientific workflows agent-ready.
When your agent uses it
- Customizing chart colors
- Applying a color palette
- Organizing brand colors
- Implementing dark mode
Example prompts
- “/matlab-apply-theme”
Requirements
- Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Write, Edit, Bash
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Don't set figure background, standard component bg/text — Theme API handles it automatically
- Do set brand colors (primary buttons, accent labels, status indicators) via theme struct
- Use ThemeChangedFcn to swap brand colors when OS/user toggles dark mode
- Use fliplightness() to auto-derive dark brand colors from light definitions
- Leave ColorMode = "auto" on components wherever possible
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 3303f05. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:
ReadWriteEditBash
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are matlab).
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
Matlab Apply Theme loads about 2.1k tokens when it runs, and up to ~3.5k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 134 tokens; SKILL.md has 749 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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: notes
The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.
- NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md
allowed-tools: Read, Write, Edit, Bash
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); files beside SKILL.md 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 749 words (~2,063 tokens).
“Style MATLAB charts with color palettes and — for uifigure apps — apply the R2025a Theme API for brand colors, dark mode, and component styling.”
