What it does

Matlab Fit Curve is an agent skill from matlab/matlab-agentic-toolkit. Fit curves and surfaces interactively with the Curve Fitter app for a complete no-code fitting workflow. Invoke this skill when the Curve Fitter app, cftool, curveFitter, or "curve fitting tool/app" is mentioned in any way. Also use when exploring or comparing fit types (regression, interpolation, smoothing, splines, custom equations); excluding outliers interactively; iterating on a fitting workflow; help choosing a fit type; and exporting to a figure, generating MATLAB code, fits to the workspace, and to…

Its SKILL.md is about 6.8k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 8 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `manifest.yaml`, `references/api-reference.md` and `references/curve-fitter-layout.md`).

It sits in Data & Analytics, covering Statistics. 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

  • Comparing fit types (regression
  • Custom equations)
  • Excluding outliers interactively
  • Iterating on a fitting workflow

Example prompts

  • “curve fitting tool/app”
  • “/matlab-fit-curve”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Select Data
  2. Choose a Fit Type
  3. Choose Fit Options
  4. Fit
  5. Evaluate and Visualize Results
  6. Iterate and Compare
  7. Export, Save, or Share Results

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

    Ships 2 files 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 Fit Curve loads about 6.8k tokens when it runs, and up to ~23k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 138 tokens; SKILL.md has 3,555 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~138
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~6.8k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~23k

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 3,555 words (~6,773 tokens).

“Guides interactive curve and surface fitting through the Curve Fitter app as part of the Curve Fitting Toolbox. Covers the full in-app workflow of selecting data, exploring fit types, modifying with fit options, inspecting fits visually and numerically, then exporting…”
