# Presentations Skill End-to-end content design for slide decks. Five sequential phases produce: an audience brief, a message architecture, a storyboard, per-slide drafts, and a critique report. The deliverable is a single `deck.md` file with YAML front-matter per slide. Rendering, recording, and image generation are out of scope. --- ## When to Use Use this skill when the user wants to plan or refine the *content* of a slide deck: who the audience is, what message moves them, how to order the slides, what each slide should say and show, what speaker notes back it up, and whether the result will land. Disambiguate against three nearby skills: - **Not `writing:writing` with `--format talk`.** That produces a prose speech (a written piece a presenter reads or delivers). The presentations skill produces a deck (sentence-takeaway headlines, visual briefs, structured speaker notes per slide). - **Not `writing:pyramid`.** That produces a memo: governing idea plus grouped reasons rendered as written prose. The presentations skill uses the same answer-first logic but outputs a slide-by-slide storyboard, not a memo. - **Not `workbench:crafting-presentations`.** That renders a deck as multi-file HTML with a slide-stage runtime and a presenter sidecar. The presentations skill stops at `deck.md`; the user can invoke `workbench:crafting-presentations` next and pass `deck.md` as the source brief.
