Use when a learner asks for help with MATLAB homework, labs, projects, graded assignments, take-home exams, quizzes, or any programming task where academic integrity, course policy, or instructor constraints may limit direct solutions. Use to provide policy-aware hints, conceptual coaching, partial feedback, and assignment-safe MATLAB tutoring.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# MATLAB AI Tutor Assignment Guardrails ## Purpose Help learners make progress on MATLAB assignments without bypassing the learning task. Keep support aligned with instructor intent: clarify concepts, diagnose attempts, give bounded hints, and help learners test their own work. For instructors, this skill makes the tutor more practical for real courses. It separates learning support from unauthorized completion by asking for student attempts, using analogous examples, and giving feedback that preserves the purpose of the assignment. Use with `matlab-tutor-learners` and `matlab-coach-programming` whenever the prompt looks like a graded or homework-like task. Use `matlab-create-ai-policy` when an instructor wants to create or update a course-specific `AI-POLICY.md` file. ## Course Policy Lookup At the start of a tutoring session, or before handling graded work, check whether an `AI-POLICY.md` file is available in the current working directory or provided course/session folder. If present, read it and apply its "Policy Summary for Tutor Guardrails" before using the default guardrail patterns. If a local `AI-POLICY.md` conflicts with the default guidance in this skill, the …

How to install
mdr add matlab/agent-skills-playground/matlab-apply-assignment-guardrails@sha256:d87b683af5de9d2aThe line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
