Showing Claude Code. One command installs this skill into any of the agents below.

  1. 1

    Run this in your project

    terminal
    $ npx skills add matlab/agent-skills-playground --skill matlab-performance-optimizer -a claude-code

  2. Uses the open-source skills CLI and needs Node.js. Add -g to install it for your user instead of this project.

Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned matlab/skills at 7b14a7756b.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

What it does

The matlab-performance-optimizer skill allows AI agents to analyze and optimize MATLAB code for improved performance. It identifies bottlenecks, suggests algorithmic improvements, and provides recommendations for efficient memory usage within MATLAB scripts and functions. This results in faster execution times and reduced resource consumption for computationally intensive tasks.

When to use it

  • Slow Simulations: Optimize lengthy simulations or models that take an unacceptably long time to run.
  • Large Datasets: Improve the processing speed of code dealing with substantial datasets within MATLAB.
  • Resource Constraints: Reduce memory usage and CPU load when running MATLAB on systems with limited resources.
  • Code Refactoring: Get assistance in identifying areas for improvement during a broader code refactoring effort.

Key capabilities

  • Performance bottleneck identification
  • Algorithmic optimization suggestions
  • Memory usage analysis
  • MATLAB code profiling

Example prompts

  • "Analyze this MATLAB script and suggest ways to improve its performance." (followed by the script)
  • "What are the bottlenecks in my my_simulation.m file?"
  • "Optimize this function for faster execution: [function definition]"

Tips & gotchas

The skill requires access to the MATLAB code being analyzed. Ensure the AI agent has appropriate permissions and context to effectively interpret and provide optimization suggestions.
