Managing Simulink Projects

MATLAB projects coordinate Simulink workflows — they manage the MATLAB path (which Simulink uses to resolve model references, data dictionaries, and requirements), track file membership for source control, and provide label-based automation for selecting targets in CI/CD pipelines.

When to Use

• Creating a new MATLAB project for Simulink models
• Adding models, data dictionaries, or requirements to an existing project
• Configuring project paths so Simulink can resolve references
• Setting up labels for automation (test selection, code generation targets)
• Configuring source control and cache folders
• Diagnosing broken model references, missing dictionaries, or failing project health checks

When NOT to Use

• Building or editing model structure (blocks, connections) → use building-simulink-models
• Writing or running tests → use testing-simulink-models
• Drafting requirements content → use generate-requirement-drafts
• Running simulations for analysis → use simulating-simulink-models
