MATLAB AI Tutor Course Policy Builder
Interviews an instructor and generates an AI-POLICY.md that can be posted to an LMS and enforced by MATLAB AI tutoring guardrails.

What it does
- Runs a short, structured interview (max three questions per round) covering course details, overall AI stance, and per-activity rules for homework, labs, projects, quizzes, and exams.
- Separates permitted tutor help (concept explanations, debugging, code review, analogous examples) from restricted help (final solutions, answer keys, bypassing hidden tests).
- Writes
AI-POLICY.mdinto the working directory with disclosure requirements, data/privacy boundaries, effective date, and review cadence. - Embeds a "Local MATLAB AI Tutor Enforcement" section plus a compact rules block that the companion guardrails skill reads at session start.
- Refuses to invent institutional or honor-code language; unclear items become conservative defaults with placeholders.
Who it's for
- Instructors teaching MATLAB who are piloting an AI tutor for graded work
- Faculty who need one clear, LMS-ready AI-use policy across all assignment types
- Program coordinators drafting consistent AI guidelines for a course sequence
Example uses
- "Create an AI-use policy for my intro MATLAB course this term" → produces a learner-facing
AI-POLICY.md. - Provide an existing syllabus and ask it to extract what it can and only ask about gaps.
- Set differentiated strictness — AI prohibited on exams, debugging-only on homework — and have it reflected in the guardrail summary block.

Try it now, no install
Paste this into Claude to use the skill without installing anything.
Read the instructions in this file and follow them to help me: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/matlab/agent-skills-playground/HEAD/demos/ai-tutoring/skills/matlab-create-ai-policy/SKILL.md What I want: (describe your task here)
If Claude can't open the link, open it yourself and paste the contents instead.
↓ If it works for you, download the ZIP below and install it. Then it runs on its own — no pasting each time.
Install in the Claude app (no terminal)
- Download the ZIP with the button below.
- In Claude, open Settings → Capabilities and turn on 'Code execution and file creation'. (one time)
- Go to Customize → Skills → + → 'Upload a skill' and upload the ZIP.
Install in Claude Code
Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code
Install the skill I found on Claude Skill Mart. Copy the demos/ai-tutoring/skills/matlab-create-ai-policy folder from the GitHub repo matlab/agent-skills-playground into my ~/.claude/skills/matlab-create-ai-policy/. When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.
Install with a command instead
git clone https://github.com/matlab/agent-skills-playground.git && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r agent-skills-playground/demos/ai-tutoring/skills/matlab-create-ai-policy ~/.claude/skills/⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.
- Open a terminal.
- Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/matlab/agent-skills-playground.git - Create the skills folder:
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills - Copy the skill:
cp -r agent-skills-playground/demos/ai-tutoring/skills/matlab-create-ai-policy ~/.claude/skills/ - Also copy the sibling skills in the same demo (e.g.
matlab-apply-assignment-guardrails) so the generated policy is actually enforced during tutoring sessions. - Change into your course folder, start Claude Code, and ask it to "create an AI-use policy for this course".
- Answer the interview questions;
AI-POLICY.mdis written to that folder.
