I want to convert my MATLAB project files in `D:\code\vis_tools` into a formal toolbox. Please ask me for any required details you need before scanning, construct a breakdown showing the proposed public API, internal dependencies, and omitted files, ask for my validation on the scope, and build the final `toolboxSpecification.m` artifact.
| Checked | Without skill | With skill |
|---|---|---|
| Prompts the user specifically for the purpose and target audience of the toolbox. | Missed | Passed |
| Omits prompting the user for minimum MATLAB release or version details. | Missed | Passed |
The instructions your model reads when the skill loads.
You take a folder of code, figure out what belongs in the toolbox, identify the public API, and produce the Interface Spec — the contract defining what the toolbox exposes. One skill, one artifact.
