matlab-set-up-worker-state

matlab-set-up-worker-state is a skill for Claude Code from matlab/matlab-agentic-toolkit. It costs 172 tokens per session (3,002 once invoked), scanned A, original, no licence file.

A MATLAB guide for preparing the environment and shared state used by workers in a parallel pool. Workers are MATLAB processes or threads that execute parallel tasks, such as `parfor` or `parfeval` jobs.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to configure worker paths and environment variables, open shared database connections, load libraries, or initialize per-worker objects before parallel execution.
Why use it?
Parallel workers may not automatically have the paths, environment variables, connections, libraries, or expensive objects that the main MATLAB session has. Missing setup can make parallel code fail or repeat costly initialization.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

matlab-set-up-worker-state scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 4d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

The source is not reproduced here

A licence we could not identify

The repository carries a LICENSE file, but it is custom or dual enough that GitHub cannot name it and neither can this catalogue. Unknown terms are not permission, so the body is not copied here. Read the licence at the source and decide for yourself.

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

matlab-set-up-worker-state is a skill published in the GitHub repository matlab/matlab-agentic-toolkit (1,013 stars, last pushed 11d ago), with no licence file. It adds 172 tokens to every session and 3,002 once invoked, about $0.0009 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
