Run MATLAB® using AI applications with the official MATLAB MCP Server from MathWorks®. The MATLAB MCP Server allows your AI applications to:
To assist your agent in using MATLAB and Simulink, you can use skills from MATLAB Agentic Toolkit (GitHub) and Simulink Agentic Toolkit (GitHub), which can also install this MCP server for you.
Install MATLAB (MathWorks) R2021a or later and add it to the system PATH. The MATLAB MCP Server supports MATLAB releases from the past five years.
The server supports any AI application that uses Model Context Protocol. To set up the MATLAB MCP Server for Claude Desktop, skip to the instructions for Claude Desktop. To set up the server for other applications, follow these instructions:
For Windows or Linux, Download the Latest Release. (Alternatively, you can build from source: install Go and build the binary using go install github.com/matlab/matlab-mcp-server/cmd/matlab-mcp-server@latest).
For macOS, first download the latest release by running the following command in your terminal:
curl -L -o ~/Downloads/matlab-mcp-server https://github.com/matlab/matlab-mcp-server/releases/latest/download/matlab-mcp-server-macos-arm64
curl -L -o ~/Downloads/matlab-mcp-server https://github.com/matlab/matlab-mcp-server/releases/latest/download/matlab-mcp-server-macos-x64
Then grant executable permissions to the downloaded binary so you can run the MATLAB MCP Server:
chmod +x ~/Downloads/matlab-mcp-server
Add the MATLAB MCP Server to your AI application. You can find instructions for adding MCP servers in the documentation of your AI application. For example instructions on using Claude Code®, Claude Desktop®, and GitHub Copilot in Visual Studio® Code, see below. Note that you can customize the server by specifying optional Arguments.
In your terminal, run the following, remembering to insert the full path to the server binary you acquired in the setup:
claude mcp add --transport stdio matlab -- /fullpath/to/matlab-mcp-server-binary
You can customize the server by specifying optional Arguments. Note the -- separator between Claude Code's options and the server arguments:
claude mcp add --transport stdio matlab -- /fullpath/to/matlab-mcp-server-binary --initial-working-folder=/home/username/myproject
For details on adding MCP servers in Claude Code, see Add a local stdio server (Claude Code). To remove the server later, run:
claude mcp remove matlab
You install the MATLAB MCP Server in Claude Desktop using th
