What it does

Matlab Design Pcb Filter is an agent skill from matlab/matlab-agentic-toolkit. Bandpass, lowpass, bandstop filter design — hairpin, coupled-line, combline, stub, SIW for frequency selection and harmonic rejection. TRIGGER: user asks to design, create, or analyze any RF filter (bandpass, lowpass, highpass, bandstop, hairpin, coupled-line, combline, stub, SIW). Invoke BEFORE writing code — filter class names differ from what you would guess. SKIP: EM simulation/S-parameter extraction of an existing filter (use matlab-analyze-em), general PCB layout assembly (use matlab-assemble-pcb-layout)…

Its SKILL.md is about 3.8k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `manifest.yaml`).

The repository describes itself as: The MATLAB Agentic Toolkit brings proven MATLAB capabilities to AI agents, making engineering and scientific workflows agent-ready.

Example prompts

  • “/matlab-design-pcb-filter”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Before: matlab-manage-pcb-material — set up substrate and conductor
  2. This skill: Design the filter (catalog object or custom geometry)
  3. Check mesh/memory: memoryEstimate(obj, fc, 'RetainMesh', true) — inspect auto-mesh density before committing to a full solve
  4. After: matlab-analyze-em — validate S-parameters → matlab-optimize-pcb-design — tune dimensions → matlab-write-pcb-layout — export Gerber

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 59dfd92. 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 Design Pcb Filter loads about 3.8k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 164 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,079 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~164
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~3.8k

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 1,079 words (~3,751 tokens).

“Key properties: FilterOrder, CoupledLineLength, CoupledLineWidth, CoupledLineSpacing, PortLineLength, PortLineWidth.”
