What it does

Matlab Plan Course Adoption is an agent skill from matlab/agent-skills-playground. Use when an instructor asks for a setup guide, adoption guide, planning guide, implementation checklist, prerequisite check, MATLAB Course Designer course structure plan, Common Cartridge workflow, Simulink starter and solution model planning, LMS import plan, or starter prompt for creating a MATLAB and Simulink enabled course with the matlab-generate-course skill.

Its SKILL.md is about 970 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/setup-guide-template.md`).

The repository describes itself as: A sandbox for prototyping and demonstrating Agent Skills for MATLAB and Simulink work.

When your agent uses it

  • An instructor asks for a setup guide
  • Implementation checklist
  • Prerequisite check
  • MATLAB Course Designer course structure plan

Example prompts

  • “/matlab-plan-course-adoption”

Workflow steps

10 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Restate the inferred course goal.
  2. Identify the best-fit course generation context.
  3. List prerequisite skill packages and MathWorks access assumptions, always
  4. Recommend a matlab-generate-course starter prompt.
  5. Recommend when and how to use matlab-create-course-activity for MATLAB Exercise
  6. Recommend when and how to use simulink-create-course-activity for Simulink
  7. Define Course Designer module and learning activity review gates.
  8. Define Common Cartridge export and persisted course review checks.
  9. Propose a first pilot with one module or one short course shell.
  10. Include a concise instructor checklist.

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 Plan Course Adoption loads about 968 tokens when it runs, and up to ~3.3k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 99 tokens; SKILL.md has 423 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~99
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~968
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~3.3k

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 423 words (~968 tokens).

“Generate a short instructor-facing setup guide for adopting the MATLAB Course Designer Generator skill package. The guide prepares an instructor to run matlab-generate-course, review MATLAB and Simulink activities, use the matlab-create-course-activity skill to wrap matlab-generate-grader-assessments and validate MATLAB Exercise .m…”
