Coding standards, frameworks, refactoring, and code review (18.7K skills)
Use MATLAB Visual Inspection Toolbox to plan and build machine vision inspections for manufactured parts. Choose rule-based, AI-based, or combined methods for defect detection, measurement, counting, and part location, then prepare deployment paths for supported targets.
Analyze DC voltage and current across power nets in an imported PCB layout. The skill configures source, load, and sense components, checks IR drop and design limits, and supports batch analysis across multiple rails to help identify power integrity issues.
Investigate MATLAB errors and unexpected results by reading relevant code, checking variables, tracing calls, and testing focused hypotheses in a live session. It helps locate likely causes of runtime failures and verify practical fixes.
Plan and build a MATLAB app from its requirements. The skill helps choose between UIFigure and UIHTML, selects a layout pattern such as a dashboard or wizard, and can save UIFigure apps as App Designer files or plain-text formats.
Inspect a specified MATLAB installation folder and list the installed products and support packages. Use it to check whether a particular toolbox or package is present, or to review the installation contents for a given MATLAB release.
Design and analyze reflector antennas, reflectarrays, reconfigurable intelligent surfaces, and antennas mounted on platforms with MATLAB Antenna Toolbox. Select an electromagnetic solver, inspect antenna performance, or calculate radar cross section for a target.
Use a measured, seven-step workflow to reduce memory use in MATLAB programs. Establish a baseline, profile allocations to find bottlenecks, apply focused code changes, compare memory use, verify results, and summarize the findings.
Build and solve finite element models in MATLAB PDE Toolbox, from geometry and mesh setup to thermal, structural, or electromagnetic analysis. Extract values such as stress and heat flux, and visualize results to inspect how a model behaves.
Update legacy MATLAB code that uses removed or discouraged functions and patterns. Map older APIs to current alternatives for tasks such as file import, dates, strings, and dynamic evaluation, and address patterns that Code Analyzer may not flag.
Turn a folder of MATLAB code into an installable `.mltbx` toolbox. The workflow guides you through defining its public interface, checking dependencies, preparing documentation and a build plan, assessing readiness, creating the package, and publishing a versioned release, with review points along the way.
Diagnose MATLAB `parfor` errors by running the code analyzer, matching its messages to variable classification issues, and applying focused fixes. Use it to repair a loop or convert a `for` loop while preserving its results, then verify the changes with the analyzer.
Prepare MATLAB parallel pool workers with paths, environment variables, connections, libraries, or data before parallel work begins. The guidance helps manage per-worker resources and setup, and modernize spmd-based setup patterns for parfor and parfeval workflows.
Use this skill to define or review MATLAB function inputs with `arguments` blocks. It helps choose size and type checks, handle repeating and name-value arguments, avoid unintended conversions, and migrate validation from `inputParser` or `validateattributes`.
Review MATLAB code with static analysis and MathWorks coding guidelines. The skill checks naming, function structure, input patterns, and common performance or maintainability issues, then reports findings by severity with suggestions for handoff or publication.
Read and write CSV, Excel, Parquet, JSON, XML, and text files in MATLAB. Get guidance on choosing import options, handling URLs and encodings, checking for data changes during import, and diagnosing common file errors.
Analyze RF PCB components in MATLAB by extracting S-parameters, checking insertion and return loss, and viewing fields or currents. Compare electromagnetic solvers, tune mesh density, and use frequency sweeps to balance analysis speed and accuracy.
Improve MATLAB code performance through a measured seven-step workflow: establish a baseline, profile execution, identify bottlenecks, optimize, measure again, verify results, and report. It helps focus changes on proven slow sections while checking that outputs remain equivalent.
Try a thread-based MATLAB parallel pool when local `parfor`, `parfeval`, or `spmd` runs slowly, especially when large data transfers or process-pool startup add overhead. It explains how to test thread compatibility, interpret errors, and make Threads the persistent default.
Add OpenTelemetry tracing to MATLAB functions to follow work across parent and child spans. The skill guides span creation, context propagation, error recording, attributes, events, and naming conventions so traces provide useful detail when reviewing a workflow.
Migrate C, C++, or Fortran MATLAB MEX source from the Separate Complex API to the Interleaved Complex API. Replace legacy data access calls, optionally retain compatibility with both API modes, and build and compare outputs to verify the conversion.
Creates repeatable MATLAB performance tests with `matlab.perftest.TestCase` and `runperf`. The tests measure execution time using warmups and multiple samples, helping compare input sizes and detect regressions over time while keeping setup outside the measured section.
Improve an existing MATLAB design file for GPU Coder by compiling, profiling, and benchmarking generated CUDA code. The workflow checks numerical results after changes and addresses GPU performance diagnostics such as memory transfers and limited parallelism.
Generate C, C++, or CUDA code from MATLAB functions, check that it matches MATLAB results, and tune settings or measure compiled MEX performance. It also helps prepare MATLAB code for code generation and address compatibility constraints.
Analyze an OpenSCENARIO 1.x .xosc file and produce a structured description for recreating its actors, positions, routes, actions, and triggers in RoadRunner. It resolves references and flags unsupported constructs before scenario authoring proceeds.
