Seven-skill presentation system: ingest talks into a rhetoric vault, run interactive clarification, generate a speaker profile, create presentations that match your documented patterns, produce the deck illustrations + thumbnail visual layer, publish talk pages to a Jekyll shownotes site, and verify a recorded screencast against its storyboard. Includes a 113-entry Presentation Patterns taxonomy (83 observable: 64 patterns + 19 antipatterns; 30 unobservable: 21 patterns + 9 antipatterns) for scoring, brainstorming, and go-live preparation.

"""Authenticated Codex image invocation with private output and no API retry.
The optional runtime is pinned in scripts/codex-cli/package.json and its lock,
renewed by weekly Dependabot updates. Each selection/render checks that exact
version plus capability and authentication. The actual image tool may still be
unavailable; that is a visible failed render.
