If the user asks to set up the Simulink Agentic Toolkit, direct them to run the following in MATLAB:
addpath('<path-to-setup-folder>')
setupAgenticToolkit("install")This handles platform detection, MCP server download, toolkit installation, agent configuration, and skill registration. Do not attempt to run setup commands on the user's behalf.
Simulink domain skills are in skills-catalog/model-based-design-core/. Each skill has a SKILL.md with instructions and a manifest.yaml with metadata.
Seven MCP tools are available when the MCP server is connected (see tools/registry.json):
model_overview— hierarchical model visualizationmodel_read— block topology and expression notationmodel_edit— structural modificationsmodel_check— structural validation (unconnected ports, dangling lines, Edit-Time Checks on States and Subcharts)model_query_params— random access to parametersmodel_resolve_params— resolve workspace variablesmodel_test— Gherkin-based behavioral testing (requires Simulink Test)
The MCP server uses --matlab-session-mode=existing. MATLAB must be running with satk_initialize executed (which calls shareMATLABSession) before MCP tools will work. The MATLAB MCP Server Toolbox must be installed once per MATLAB version. If tools fail to connect, guide the user to run addpath('<toolkit_root>'); satk_initialize in MATLAB.
