What it does
Matlab Log Tutor Sessions is an agent skill from matlab/agent-skills-playground. Use when starting, continuing, updating, exporting, or sharing a running transcript of a MATLAB AI tutoring session, especially when the transcript will be shared with an instructor, attached to a learner session report, or passed to an evaluation workflow for quality review.
Its SKILL.md is about 930 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/transcript-template.md`).
It sits in Education, covering Tutoring and explanations. The repository describes itself as: A sandbox for prototyping and demonstrating Agent Skills for MATLAB and Simulink work.
When your agent uses it
- Sharing a running transcript of a MATLAB AI tutoring session
- Especially when the transcript will be shared with an instructor
- Attached to a learner session report
- Passed to an evaluation workflow for quality review
Example prompts
- “/matlab-log-tutor-sessions”
Workflow steps
7 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Identify the session context: course, assignment status, learner goal, MATLAB
- Create or update the transcript artifact using the required structure.
- Append each meaningful turn in order with speaker, timestamp if available,
- Add MATLAB evidence blocks for code, errors, outputs, tests, and tool results.
- Tag tutor moves when visible: active learning, feedback, guardrail,
- Add brief session markers for important events such as policy checks,
- End with export notes that state what is complete, partial, omitted, or
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 Log Tutor Sessions loads about 925 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.6k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 76 tokens; SKILL.md has 397 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 397 words (~925 tokens).
“Keep a running, evidence-preserving transcript of a MATLAB tutoring session once tutoring has started. The transcript should capture enough context for an instructor or evaluator to understand what happened without turning the log into a polished summary or grade.”
