What it does

Matlab Generate Gnss Waveform is an agent skill from matlab/matlab-agentic-toolkit. Generate GNSS baseband waveforms (GPS, Galileo, NavIC) with physically realistic or user-specified channel impairments using the Satellite Communications Toolbox. Use when generating GPS L1 C/A, L1C, L2C, L5, Galileo E1, E1C, E5a, E5b, E5, or NavIC L5, S, L1 signals. Covers gpsWaveformGenerator, galileoWaveformGenerator, satelliteScenario, Doppler/delay from orbital dynamics or custom values, navigation data encoding with ephemeris, and RINEX integration. Triggers on: GPS waveform, Galileo waveform, NavIC…

Its SKILL.md is about 5.1k 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/galileo-pipeline.md` and `references/gps-pipeline.md`). Compatibility notes: =R2026a

It sits in Testing & QA. 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

  • Generating GPS L1 C/A
  • Galileo waveform
  • Satellite scenario
  • GNSS simulation

Example prompts

  • “/matlab-generate-gnss-waveform”

Requirements

  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): >=R2026a

Workflow steps

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

  1. Determine signal type, channel mode, and data source
  2. Configure waveform generator (constellation-specific)
  3. Set up satellite scenario (SCENARIO MODE ONLY)
  4. Compute channel parameters from physics (SCENARIO MODE ONLY)
  5. Encode navigation data (BOTH MODES, constellation-specific)
  6. Generate waveform with channel (BOTH MODES)

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.

  • Compatibility

    >=R2026a

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Matlab Generate Gnss Waveform loads about 5.1k tokens when it runs, and up to ~16k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 173 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,982 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~173
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~5.1k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~16k

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 1,982 words (~5,092 tokens).

“Generate multi-satellite GNSS baseband waveforms with properly encoded navigation data. Channel impairments (Doppler, delay, noise) can come from a realistic satellite scenario OR from user-specified custom values. Supports GPS, Galileo, and NavIC constellations. The waveform carries real ephemeris so a…”
