What it does

Matlab Configure Toml Project is an agent skill from matlab/matlab-agentic-toolkit. Use whenever "project" or "matlab.toml" is mentioned in a MATLAB context. This includes creating, editing, organizing, or configuring MATLAB projects, declaring MATLAB package dependencies or reference projects, setting up paths, lifecycle scripts, shortcuts, MATLAB packages, or asking about project structure.

Its SKILL.md is about 3.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files, including reference files (for example `manifest.yaml`, `references/deployment-reference.md` and `references/format-reference.md`).

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

  • Matlab.toml is mentioned in a MATLAB context

Example prompts

  • “project”
  • “matlab.toml”
  • “/matlab-configure-toml-project”

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Ask for the project name. This is the only required field.
  2. Scan the current folder for existing structure
  3. Generate a draft starting minimal — name, folders, and any discovered lifecycle scripts. Present it to the user.
  4. Ask about optional sections as needed, not as a checklist
  5. After generating the TOML file, ask the user if they want the folders listed in [folders] to be created on disk (for nonexistent folders…

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 69e71df. 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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are toml and 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 Configure Toml Project loads about 3.1k tokens when it runs, and up to ~11k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 85 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,461 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~85
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~3.1k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~11k

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); 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 1,461 words (~3,123 tokens).

“matlab.toml is a TOML-based configuration file for MATLAB projects. It defines project structure, dependencies, lifecycle scripts, shortcuts, labels, packaging, deployment, and Simulink settings. Every section is optional — the schema mandates no top-level field — but always set name, which…”
