Simple Deck Skill
Produce a single-file horizontal-swipe HTML deck using the seed and layout library.

Workflow
Step 0 — Pre-flight
- Read
assets/template.htmlend-to-end through the<style>block AND the<script>block. The script solves five iframe-specific bugs (real scroller detection, dual capture-phase listeners, auto-focus, noscrollIntoView, position persistence) — do not rewrite it. - Read
references/layouts.mdso you know the 8 layouts. Pay special attention to the "Theme rhythm" section — it's the rule that prevents the deck from feeling sleepy. - Read the active DESIGN.md — map its tokens to the six
:rootvariables in the seed.
Step 1 — Copy the seed
Copy assets/template.html to the project root as index.html. Replace the six :root variables with the active design system's tokens. Replace the page <title>.
Step 2 — Decide slide count + theme rhythm BEFORE writing any slide
Default: 6 slides unless the brief says otherwise.
| Audience / format | Slides | |---|---| | Product overview / lightning talk (5–10 min) | 6 | | Pitch deck (15 min) | 8–10 | | Investor update / longer talk (20–30 min) | 12–18 |
Then write out the rhythm before any HTML — for example, 8 slides:
01 hero light center Cover
02 light Problem
03 hero dark center Big stat
04 light Three points
05 dark Pipeline
06 hero light center Quote
07 light Before / after
08 hero dark center Ask
A healthy sequence has:
- No 3+ same theme in a row
- ≥ 1
hero darkAND ≥ 1hero light(for 8+ slides) - Alternating breath every 3–4 slides
Show this rhythm sketch to the user before writing slide HTML — they can redirect cheaply.
Step 3 — Paste and fill
For each planned slide, copy the matching <section> from layouts.md into the body. Replace bracketed text with real, specific copy. No filler / no lorem. If a slide feels empty, the layout is wrong — pick a different one.
Tag each slide with data-screen-label="01 Cover", "02 Problem", etc., in the order you wrote them. (The seed's first three slides already do this — extend the pattern.)
Step 4 — Self-check
Run through references/checklist.md. The "Theme rhythm spot-check" at the end is non-negotiable:
grep 'class="slide' index.html
Read the resulting class list. If you see light × 4 in a row, swap one to dark. If no hero dark exists in an 8+ slide deck, promote one big-stat or closing slide.
Step 5 — Write the project file
Write the completed deck HTML to index.html.
Then send one short ordinary assistant summary naming index.html and describing the deck. Do not output the full HTML source in chat and do not emit a source-code <artifact> block.
Hard rules
- Theme class on every slide (
light|dark|hero light|hero dark). Bareclass="slide"= regression. - No 3+ same theme in a row.
- Display = serif via
var(--font-display)..h-hero/.h-xl/.h-mdalready enforce. - One accent per slide, used at most twice.
- Don't rewrite the nav script. It's proven.
- No
scrollIntoView(). Breaks iframe. data-screen-labelon every slide.
