dsh-mcp-matlab

If you work inside a DSH (DeepSeek Harness) session with your AI assistant but still have to alt-tab over to the MATLAB desktop for a quick expression check, a round of unit tests, or a toolbox availability query, dsh-mcp-matlab closes that gap. The plugin ships neither MATLAB nor the MATLAB MCP Server executable; its single responsibility is to wire up a Server you already run locally and register its capabilities as mcp__matlab__* tools inside DSH, giving the AI in your conversation direct access to your MATLAB workspace.

Once connected, five tools appear in the session: evaluate arbitrary MATLAB code and capture the command-line output, execute a specific .m script, run a test file via runtests and collect the results, perform a static check with MATLAB Code Analyzer without modifying the file, and list the installed MATLAB version together with every available toolbox. Whether you want the AI to verify a numerical computation, bulk-run unit tests and flag failures, or simply confirm that a particular toolbox is present, you no longer need to leave the conversation.

It is aimed at people who already have a working MATLAB installation (R2021a or later, valid license) and use DSH as their daily AI coding environment: engineers and researchers in signal processing, control simulation, or scientific scripting, and graduate students who iterate on MATLAB code with AI assistance. The plugin does not alter MATLAB behavior in any way; it simply gives the AI in your DSH session a pair of hands that can operate your workspace directly.
