create-slide

Use this skill when the user wants to create, draft, author, or generate new slides / a presentation in this open-slide repo. Triggers on phrases like "make slides about X", "make a deck about X", "create a presentation", "draft slides for", "new slide", or when the user asks to add content under `slides/`. Do NOT use for editing the framework itself — only for authoring content inside `slides/<id>/`.

Quality

Content

85%

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

The body is a well-structured, actionable workflow with clear sequencing and a clean split of concerns via one-level-deep references to a peer skill. Its main weakness is conciseness — several sections carry verbose parentheticals and worked examples that could be trimmed.

Suggestions

Tighten Step 2: collapse the three full topic-to-aesthetic worked examples into a single compact illustration, and move the AskUserQuestion option-limit mechanics into a short parenthetical rather than a full clause.

Trim the long parentheticals in Step 1 (the meta-export example and option-limit explanation) into briefer inline notes, keeping the concrete snippet but cutting the surrounding prose.

Consolidate the repeated 'see slide-authoring' references into a single up-front pointer so later steps can reference it more briefly.

Dimension	Reasoning	Score
Conciseness	It assumes Claude's competence (no basic concept explanations) but carries notable verbosity — long parenthetical asides on AskUserQuestion option limits, a worked meta-export example, and three full topic-to-aesthetic worked examples in Step 2 — that could be tightened. This sits at 'mostly efficient but includes some unnecessary explanation' rather than 'every token earns its place'.	2 / 3
Actionability	Provides concrete, copy-paste-ready guidance: a real meta export snippet, an export const design snippet, slide-id examples (rust-intro, q2-roadmap), a localhost URL, and lockfile-matched dev commands. Per the instruction-only scoring note, the absence of a full code template (deferred to slide-authoring) is not penalized because the inline guidance is specific and actionable.	3 / 3
Workflow Clarity	An explicit 8-step sequence with clear checkpoints — a 'MUST ask before writing code' gate in Steps 1–2 and a dedicated self-review step (Step 7) pointing to a checklist — giving a clear, checkpointed workflow rather than just listed steps.	3 / 3
Progressive Disclosure	No bundle files exist; the body is an overview that consistently delegates one level deep to the peer slide-authoring skill (file contract, canvas, type scale, palette, assets, self-review) and optionally frontend-design, with references clearly signaled inline and content appropriately split.	3 / 3

Description

100%

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

The description is specific, trigger-rich, and clearly scoped with an explicit use-when clause and a distinguishing exclusion. It cleanly answers what, when, and how it differs from adjacent skills.

Dimension	Reasoning	Score
Specificity	Enumerates multiple concrete authoring actions ('create, draft, author, or generate new slides / a presentation'), matching the score-3 anchor for listing several specific concrete actions rather than just naming a domain.	3 / 3
Completeness	Explicitly answers both what (authoring slides/presentations) and when, opening with 'Use this skill when...' plus an explicit 'Triggers on phrases like...' clause, so it is not capped at 2 for a missing trigger clause.	3 / 3
Trigger Term Quality	Provides a broad set of natural trigger phrases users would actually say ('make slides about X', 'make a deck about X', 'create a presentation', 'draft slides for', 'new slide'), giving good coverage rather than only a few relevant keywords.	3 / 3
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk	Scoped to authoring content inside slides/<id>/ in this repo with an explicit exclusion ('Do NOT use for editing the framework itself'), giving it a clear niche unlikely to trigger the wrong skill.	3 / 3
