What it does
Matlab Discover Clusters is an agent skill from matlab/matlab-agentic-toolkit. Discover MATLAB Parallel Computing Toolbox clusters on the network and in the cloud, and manage their profiles — list, inspect, import, export, set default, validate, and delete. Use whenever the user asks what parallel computing resources, clusters, or cluster profiles they have or can use — e.g. "what parallel resources do I have", "show my cluster profiles", "list clusters", "what clusters can I run on", "where can I submit jobs" — and for any work with parcluster, parallel.listProfiles…
Its SKILL.md is about 4.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files, including scripts (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.
When your agent uses it
- The user asks what parallel computing resources
- Cluster profiles they have
Example prompts
- “what parallel resources do I have”
- “show my cluster profiles”
- “list clusters”
- “/matlab-discover-clusters”
Workflow steps
6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- List existing profiles with parallel.listProfiles to see what is already configured.
- If the user is missing an expected resource or wants to search for additional clusters, discover them with the bundled discoverClusters…
- Add the cluster as a profile — either by creating it from a discovered cluster (saveAsProfile) or importing a shared .mlsettings…
- Set the default profile with parallel.defaultProfile if appropriate.
- Validate with parallel.validateProfile (R2025a+) or validate(c) on the cluster object before relying on it. Pass NumWorkersToUse (e.g. 2)…
- Delete obsolete profiles with parallel.deleteProfile (R2026a+) — confirm with the user first; deletion is irreversible.
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
Ships 1 file in scripts/, which the agent can run.
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 Discover Clusters loads about 4.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 173 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,740 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 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); the scripts in this folder 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 1,740 words (~4,543 tokens).
“A cluster profile is a saved set of properties (name, type, host, number of workers, scheduler arguments) that lets MATLAB connect to a compute resource. This skill covers the full profile lifecycle: discovering clusters on the network, importing shared profiles…”
