/install matlab
Description
Avoid common MATLAB mistakes — indexing traps, matrix vs element-wise ops, and vectorization pitfalls.
Usage Guidance
This skill is a read-only MATLAB tipsheet and does not request secrets or perform installations. It will only be useful if you have the matlab binary available. Because the skill’s source is unknown, consider: (1) only enable it if you trust the registry publisher or prefer local documentation; (2) confirm you want an agent to be able to call it autonomously (it’s low-risk but will run if invoked); and (3) if you need reproduction from a vetted source, consult official MathWorks documentation instead.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: matlab
Version: 1.0.0
The skill bundle consists of standard metadata and a markdown file (`SKILL.md`). The markdown file provides purely educational content about common MATLAB mistakes and best practices. It declares a legitimate requirement for the `matlab` binary, which aligns with its stated purpose. There is no executable code, no attempts at data exfiltration, persistence, obfuscation, or prompt injection against the AI agent. The content is entirely informational and poses no security risks.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description match the SKILL.md content (MATLAB pitfalls). Declaring the matlab binary requirement is proportionate and expected.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md is static guidance (indexing, operators, debugging tips). It does not instruct the agent to read unrelated files, access environment variables, or transmit data externally.
Install Mechanism
No install spec or external downloads; instruction-only skills have minimal disk/write risk.
Credentials
No environment variables, credentials, or config paths are requested — nothing disproportionate is asked for.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and the skill is user-invocable. Allowing autonomous invocation is the platform default and acceptable given the skill's limited scope.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install matlab - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/matlab - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
