Design Philosophy

This deck is designed for reading and sharing, not live presentation:

  • Each slide must be self-explanatory without verbal commentary
  • Structure content for logical flow when scrolling
  • Include all necessary context within each slide
  • Optimize for social media sharing and offline reading

File Management

Output Directory

Each session creates an independent directory named by content slug:

slide-deck/{topic-slug}/
├── source-{slug}.{ext}    # Source files (text, images, etc.)
├── outline.md
├── outline-{style}.md     # Style variant outlines
├── prompts/
│   └── 01-slide-cover.md, 02-slide-{slug}.md, ...
├── 01-slide-cover.png, 02-slide-{slug}.png, ...
├── {topic-slug}.pptx
└── {topic-slug}.pdf

Slug Generation:

  1. Extract main topic from content (2-4 words, kebab-case)
  2. Example: "Introduction to Machine Learning" →
    intro-machine-learning

Conflict Resolution

If

slide-deck/{topic-slug}/
already exists:

  • Append timestamp:
    {topic-slug}-YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS
  • Example:
    intro-ml
    exists →
    intro-ml-20260118-143052

Source Files

Copy all sources with naming

source-{slug}.{ext}
:

  • source-article.md
    (main text content)
  • source-diagram.png
    (image from conversation)
  • source-data.xlsx
    (additional file)

Multiple sources supported: text, images, files from conversation.

Workflow

Step 1: Analyze Content

  1. Save source content (if pasted, save as
    source.md
    )
  2. Follow
    references/analysis-framework.md
    for deep content analysis
  3. Determine style (use
    --style
    or auto-select from signals)
  4. Detect languages (source vs. user preference)
  5. Plan slide count (
    --slides
    or dynamic)

Step 2: Generate Outline Variants

  1. Generate 3 style variant outlines based on content analysis
  2. Follow
    references/outline-template.md
    for structure
  3. Save as
    outline-{style}.md
    for each variant

Step 3: User Confirmation

Single AskUserQuestion with all applicable options:

QuestionWhen to Ask
Style variantAlways (3 options + custom)
LanguageOnly if source ≠ user language

After selection:

  • Copy selected
    outline-{style}.md
    to
    outline.md
  • Regenerate in different language if requested
  • User may edit
    outline.md
    for fine-tuning

If

--outline-only
, stop here.

Step 4: Generate Prompts

  1. Read
    references/base-prompt.md
  2. Combine with style instructions from outline
  3. Add slide-specific content
  4. Save to
    prompts/
    directory

Step 5: Generate Images

  1. Select available image generation skill
  2. Generate session ID:
    slides-{topic-slug}-{timestamp}
  3. Generate each slide with same session ID
  4. Report progress: "Generated X/N"

Step 6: Merge to PPTX and PDF

npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/merge-to-pptx.ts <slide-deck-dir>
npx -y bun ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/merge-to-pdf.ts <slide-deck-dir>

Notes

  • Image generation: 10-30 seconds per slide
  • Auto-retry once on generation failure
  • Use stylized alternatives for sensitive public figures
  • Maintain style consistency via session ID
