IMO, since you are not using the magical rating itself (that would require concentrated magic), you are using a mundane ability. Your Climb is opposed by the height/smoothness of the wall, and your First Aid is not magic.

I thought the example was of having magic which perfectly matched the situation -- the source of the magic not being important.

What's the ability rating of the ability with which you are augmenting? If you have a feat at a net 7W2 (47), then you would get an automatic augmentation of +5.
