What it does

Matlab Convert Aerospace Coordinates is an agent skill from matlab/matlab-agentic-toolkit. Perform aerospace unit conversions, time conversions, coordinate frame transformations, and rotation representations using Aerospace Toolbox. Use when converting units (length, velocity, angle, acceleration, angular velocity, force, mass, pressure, temperature, density), computing Julian dates or decimal years, transforming between coordinate frames (ECEF, ECI, LLA, flat Earth, geodetic/geocentric, NED, body, wind, stability), or working with rotation representations (Euler angles, DCM, quaternion, Rodrigues…

Its SKILL.md is about 4.4k 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/coordinate-systems.md` and `references/rotation-conventions.md`).

It works with Angular. 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

  • Converting units (length
  • Angular velocity
  • Computing Julian dates
  • Transforming between coordinate frames (ECEF

Example prompts

  • “/matlab-convert-aerospace-coordinates”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Identify the coordinate frame — Determine what frame your data is in and what frame you need. See references/coordinate-systems.md for…
  2. Convert units first — Ensure inputs match the function's expected units before calling transforms.
  3. Apply the transformation — Use the appropriate function with correct argument ordering.
  4. Verify — Round-trip the result back to the original frame; error should be < 1e-10.

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 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 Convert Aerospace Coordinates loads about 4.4k tokens when it runs, and up to ~9.4k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 167 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,128 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~167
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~4.4k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~9.4k

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 1,128 words (~4,394 tokens).

“Core Aerospace Toolbox functions for unit conversions, time conversions, coordinate transformations, and rotation representations.”
