Deploy MATLAB-generated code to embedded hardware using Embedded Coder.

  • Works in 7 steps: Create an ERT-Based Configuration → Select Target Hardware → Configure Memory for Bare-Metal Targets → …
  • Configuring code generation for microcontrollers (STM32
  • SKILL.md covers When to Use, When NOT to Use, Workflow and Key Properties, plus 4 more sections
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Matlab Deploy Embedded Code is an agent skill from matlab/matlab-agentic-toolkit. Deploy MATLAB-generated code to embedded hardware using Embedded Coder. Use when configuring code generation for microcontrollers (STM32, Raspberry Pi, ARM Cortex), setting up PIL/SIL verification, disabling dynamic memory allocation, or configuring hardware-specific code generation settings. Covers ERT-based configurations, processor-in-the-loop testing, memory constraints, and the MEX→SIL→PIL verification progression.

Its SKILL.md is about 2.5k 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/simulink-config.md` and `references/supported-hardware.md`).

It sits in Development, covering Embedded systems and Deployment. 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

  • Configuring code generation for microcontrollers (STM32
  • Setting up PIL/SIL verification
  • Disabling dynamic memory allocation
  • Configuring hardware-specific code generation settings

Example prompts

  • “/matlab-deploy-embedded-code”

Workflow steps

7 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Create an ERT-Based Configuration
  2. Select Target Hardware
  3. Configure Memory for Bare-Metal Targets
  4. Configure Performance (SIMD and OpenMP)
  5. Set Up PIL Verification
  6. Generate Code
  7. Verify with the MEX → SIL → PIL Progression

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 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 Deploy Embedded Code loads about 2.5k tokens when it runs, and up to ~4.1k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 113 tokens; SKILL.md has 914 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~113
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.5k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~4.1k

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); 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 914 words (~2,550 tokens).

“Configure MATLAB Coder with Embedded Coder for production-quality code generation targeting embedded hardware, and verify correctness with processor-in-the-loop (PIL) testing.”
