At a glance

Select and use Audio Toolbox acoustic, psychoacoustic, and speech quality metrics.

  • Works in 3 steps: Identify the measurement goal → Ask before computing → Select function and apply
  • Computing loudness
  • SKILL.md covers When to Use, When NOT to Use, Workflow and Functions That Do NOT Exist, plus 6 more sections
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Matlab Evaluate Acoustic Metrics is an agent skill from matlab/matlab-agentic-toolkit. Select and use Audio Toolbox acoustic, psychoacoustic, and speech quality metrics. Use when computing loudness, sharpness, roughness, fluctuation strength, noise criteria (NC/RNC/RC), speech transmission index (STI), speech intelligibility index (SII), speech quality (ViSQOL, STOI), SPL, reverberation time (RT60), tone-to-noise ratio, or prominence ratio. Also use when asked about PESQ, POLQA, calibration factor, EBU R 128, LUFS, HVAC noise, background noise evaluation, or how to measure audio quality or noise…

Its SKILL.md is about 5.8k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 9 other files, including reference files (for example `manifest.yaml`, `references/function-arguments.md` and `references/noise-compliance.md`).

It sits in Business, Finance & HR, covering Performance reviews. 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

  • Computing loudness
  • Fluctuation strength
  • Noise criteria (NC/RNC/RC)
  • Speech transmission index (STI)

Example prompts

  • “/matlab-evaluate-acoustic-metrics”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Identify the measurement goal
  2. Ask before computing
  3. Select function and apply

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 Evaluate Acoustic Metrics loads about 5.8k tokens when it runs, and up to ~31k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 171 tokens; SKILL.md has 2,248 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~171
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~5.8k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~31k

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 2,248 words (~5,788 tokens).

“Select the correct Audio Toolbox function for acoustic measurement, apply proper calibration, and choose appropriate standards — instead of reimplementing algorithms or calling nonexistent functions.”
