What it does
Matlab Model Via is an agent skill from matlab/matlab-agentic-toolkit. Via modeling: pads, antipads, ground return vias, GRV placement, and signal integrity for high-speed layer transitions. TRIGGER: user asks to model a via, design a via transition, place ground return vias, analyze via performance, or check signal integrity through layer transitions. Invoke BEFORE writing code — only viaSingleEnded exists (no viaDifferential), and the location format is non-obvious. SKIP: general signal integrity without vias (use matlab-analyze-em), transmission line design (use…
Its SKILL.md is about 5.6k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `manifest.yaml`).
The repository describes itself as: The MATLAB Agentic Toolkit brings proven MATLAB capabilities to AI agents, making engineering and scientific workflows agent-ready.
Example prompts
- “/matlab-model-via”
Workflow steps
3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Before: matlab-manage-pcb-material — set up substrate and conductor for the stackup
- This skill: Model the via, place GRVs, check signal integrity
- After: matlab-integrate-pcb-circuit — cascade via model with trace/connector models → matlab-optimize-pcb-design — optimize GRV placement…
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.
Context cost
Matlab Model Via loads about 5.6k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 165 tokens; SKILL.md has 2,009 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 2,009 words (~5,590 tokens).
“The viaSingleEnded object models signal vias through multi-layer PCB stackups with configurable pads, antipads, and ground return vias.”
