What it does
Matlab Evaluate Tutor Quality is an agent skill from matlab/agent-skills-playground. Use when reviewing, auditing, scoring, or improving a real or synthetic MATLAB AI tutor transcript, tutoring prompt, generated lesson, exercise, feedback sequence, or skill behavior for MATLAB accuracy, active learning, assignment guardrails, feedback quality, debugging support, transfer prompts, and instructor-facing quality recommendations.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 3 other files, including reference files (for example `references/evaluation-rubric.md` and `references/transcript-review-examples.md`).
It sits in Education, covering Tutoring and explanations and LLM guardrails. The repository describes itself as: A sandbox for prototyping and demonstrating Agent Skills for MATLAB and Simulink work.
When your agent uses it
- Improving a real
- Synthetic MATLAB AI tutor transcript
- Tutoring prompt
- Generated lesson
Example prompts
- “/matlab-evaluate-tutor-quality”
Workflow steps
9 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Establish transcript provenance: real, synthetic, partial, reconstructed, or
- Identify learner goal, level, task type, assignment status, and visible
- Check MATLAB accuracy: syntax, semantics, terminology, API behavior, edge
- Check active learning: prediction, explanation, inspection, debugging,
- Check assignment guardrails: whether the tutor preserved the learning goal,
- Check feedback quality: verdict, reason, misconception, evidence, next step,
- Check debugging support: error text, line numbers, size, class, values,
- Check transfer prompts: whether the tutor changed one meaningful dimension
- Produce an instructor-facing quality report with severity-ranked findings,
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 7b14a77. 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.
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 Tutor Quality loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs, and up to ~4.7k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 94 tokens; SKILL.md has 493 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); 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 493 words (~1,416 tokens).
“Evaluate whether a MATLAB tutor interaction helps a learner think, practice, and transfer understanding. Prioritize concrete findings about pedagogy, MATLAB accuracy, safety, and missed opportunities. This skill can review real tutoring transcripts, synthetic transcripts, partial transcripts, prompts, exercises, generated feedback…”
