How to Set Up and Use Simulink Agentic Toolkit
The Simulink Agentic Toolkit is an MCP server that gives AI coding agents direct access to MATLAB and Simulink through seven purpose-built tools for exploring, reading, editing, checking, and testing Simulink models. It is developed by MathWorks and integrates with Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, OpenAI Codex, Gemini CLI, and Sourcegraph Amp, enabling agents to perform Model-Based Design tasks entirely through natural language. The toolkit also bundles nine agent skills covering model building, simulation, testing, requirements, and MBSE with System Composer, providing structured guidance beyond raw tool access. Installation is handled through a MATLAB Toolbox installer that sets up the MCP binary and configuration automatically.
Prerequisites
- MATLAB R2023a or later with Simulink installed
- A supported AI coding agent: Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, OpenAI Codex, Gemini CLI, or Sourcegraph Amp
- agenticToolkitInstaller.mltbx downloaded from the latest GitHub release
- Optional: Simulink Test, System Composer, Requirements Toolbox, Simscape, or Stateflow for extended skill coverage
Download the MATLAB Toolbox installer
Go to the Releases page of the GitHub repository and download the latest agenticToolkitInstaller.mltbx file.
Install the Toolbox in MATLAB
Double-click the .mltbx file in the MATLAB file browser, or drag it into the MATLAB command window, to install the Simulink Agentic Toolkit toolbox.
Run the automated setup
In the MATLAB command window, run setupAgenticToolkit to download the MCP server binary and configure your AI agent. Follow the interactive prompts to select your agent.
setupAgenticToolkit("install")Initialize the toolkit in each MATLAB session
At the start of each MATLAB session where you want agent access, add the toolkit path and call satk_initialize to register the MCP server.
addpath("~/.matlab/agentic-toolkits/simulink")
satk_initializeOpen a model and verify agent access
Open any Simulink model, then ask your AI agent to describe its structure. If the MCP connection is working, the agent will return a summary of the model's blocks and connections.
open_system("f14")Update or add new agents later
To update the toolkit binary or configure an additional AI agent, run the setup command with the appropriate argument.
setupAgenticToolkit("update") % update binary
setupAgenticToolkit("configure") % add another agentSimulink Agentic Toolkit Examples
Client configuration
The setup script writes the MCP server configuration automatically. This is the typical resulting structure in a Claude Code MCP config, with the binary installed by setupAgenticToolkit.

Example natural language tasks you can give your AI agent after opening a Simulink model in MATLAB.
- "Describe the structure of the currently open Simulink model"
- "Add a Gain block to the model and connect it between the input and the first Integrator"
- "Check the model for configuration errors or unconnected signals"
- "Run the Gherkin test suite for this model and summarize the results"
- "Inspect the solver settings and suggest changes for faster simulation"
- "Resolve the workspace variable 'Kp' to its numeric value"Troubleshooting Simulink Agentic Toolkit
setupAgenticToolkit fails or the binary is not found
Ensure MATLAB R2023a or later is running and has internet access to download the binary. Re-run setupAgenticToolkit("update") if a previous install was incomplete. Check ~/.matlab/agentic-toolkits/simulink/ to confirm the files were downloaded.
Agent tools are not available after satk_initialize
Run satk_initialize again and check the MATLAB command window for error messages. The MCP server must be running and the client must be restarted after configuration changes. Ensure the path from addpath is correct.
model_edit or model_test tools return errors
model_test requires Simulink Test. model_edit may fail if the model is open in read-only mode or if block names conflict. Ensure the model is open and unlocked in MATLAB before invoking edit tools.
