Is the Specifying MBD Algorithms skill free?

Yes. The skill itself is free from matlab/simulink-agentic-toolkit. SkillProof publishes the install command and an independent test verdict at no cost.

What is the Specifying MBD Algorithms SkillProof Score?

9.6/10 — installs cleanly 5/5, triggers reliably 5/5, output vs. baseline 9/10, docs & honesty 5/5.

How do I install Specifying MBD Algorithms?

Copy the install command from this page, run it in your terminal, and restart Claude Code. Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/ inside a project.

Can I use Specifying MBD Algorithms with Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Codex or other AI tools?

The SKILL.md format is native to Claude (Claude Code, Desktop, claude.ai). The instructions inside adapt to other assistants: Cursor rules, GitHub Copilot instructions, Windsurf rules, Custom GPTs, AGENTS.md for OpenAI Codex, and GEMINI.md for Google Gemini CLI — our conversion guides cover each, and the free converter on the tools page does the wrapping for you.

Test report

Verdict: Tested · Works
Score: 9.6/10
Tested: Jul 14, 2026
Environment: Claude Code 2.x (agent harness)
Upstream re-checked: Jul 18, 2026 · 55e5bea

Ran a real baseline-vs-skill spec comparison for a moving-average accelerometer filter: the skill version added quantitative acceptance criteria, a units/sign-convention interface table, and explicit startup and sensor-dropout edge cases that the unguided baseline spec never mentioned.

Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works

Installs cleanly 5/5
Triggers reliably 5/5
Output vs. baseline 9/10
Docs & honesty 5/5

What Specifying MBD Algorithms does

Produces structured specification documents (system spec, architecture spec, implementation plan, test plan) for controllers, estimators, diagnostics, and other algorithms built in Simulink, Stateflow, or MATLAB Function blocks. Triggers when a user needs to specify a control/estimation/signal-processing algorithm before building it in a Model-Based Design workflow, with review gates for units, sign conventions, mode transitions, and saturation handling.

How to install Specifying MBD Algorithms

git clone https://github.com/matlab/simulink-agentic-toolkit
cd simulink-agentic-toolkit
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
cp -r skills-catalog/model-based-design-core/specifying-mbd-algorithms ~/.claude/skills/specifying-mbd-algorithms

Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/ (per-project). Restart Claude Code after installing.

Commands — how to trigger Specifying MBD Algorithms

/specifying-mbd-algorithms Structured system/architecture/implementation/test spec templates for Simulink algorithms

It also activates on plain-language prompts like these:

Write a system spec for this Simulink controller before we build it
I need an implementation plan for this estimator block in Stateflow
Draft a test plan for the diagnostics algorithm in this model
