MATLAB Toolbox Specific Skills for Claude — Looking for Feedback
Hi everyone,
I'm a biomedical engineering PhD student who uses MATLAB daily for medical image analysis. I noticed that Claude often suggests MATLAB+Python workarounds or thirdparty toolboxesfor tasks that MATLAB can handle natively, or recommends functions that were deprecated several versions ago.
To address this, I created a set of skills that help Claude understand what MATLAB can actually do—especially with newer functions and toolbox-specific capabilities. This way, it can suggest pure MATLAB solutions instead of mixing in Python or relying on outdated approaches.
What I Built
The repo covers Medical Imaging, Image Processing, Deep Learning, Stats/ML, and Wavelet toolbox based skills. I tried my best to verify everything against R2025b documentation.
Feedback Welcome
If you try them out, I'd like to hear how it goes. And if you run into errors or have ideas, feel free to create an issue. If you find them useful, a "Star" on the repo would be appreciated. This is my first time putting something like this out there, so any feedback helps.
Also, if anyone is interested in collaborating on an article for the MathWorks blog, I'd be happy to volunteer and collaborate on this topic or related topics together!
I look forward to hearing from you....
Thanks!

Time DescendingYes, the field is changing rapidly and as a commnuity we have to come together to learn, share experiences and best practices!
Thanks for posting your work @Ritish Raghav Maram. I was hoping someone would share the skills files they'd been working with. I think it's important for the community to see what others have done and I hope others will follow your lead and share what they've done.
