matlab-project

What problem does it solve?

Use this skill for any work involving a MATLAB Project (.prj) — creating a new project, tracking files, managing the project path, configuring Simulink cache and code-generation folders, running project health checks, or writing build scripts that keep the project in sync with the file system. Trigger phrases include "set up a MATLAB project", "create a .prj", "track this file in the project", "project health check", or writing build scripts that keep the project in sync with the file system. This skill is the generic foundation; domain-specific skills (e.g. mbse-workflow) build on it.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Domain-agnostic helpers like setupProject, registerWithProject and conventions for idempotent build scripts, tracking, and path management.
• Ability for domain-specific skills to reuse and override living-doc templates (plan.md and decisions.md) and living-doc behavior.
• Supports structured living documentation (plan.md, decisions.md) at project root and template overrides.

Quick Start

Run setupProject with a projectName, projectFolder, and derivedSubfolders to initialize a MATLAB Project and integrate with Simulink cache/codegen directories.
