## When to Use

Activate this skill when the user's request matches any of these patterns:

- "Make a presentation about..."
- "Create slides for..."
- "Build a slide deck..."
- "Turn this into a presentation"
- "Make a talk about..."
- "Create a pitch deck for..."
- "Generate presentation slides..."
- Any request involving: **presentation**, **slides**, **deck**, **talk**, **keynote**, **pitch**, **slideshow**
- Any request to visualize or structure content for an audience, even without explicit "slide" mention

## Input Modes

Determine which mode applies based on the user's input:

### Mode A: Topic Only
The user provides a topic and optionally a duration or audience.
```
"Make a 15-min talk about AI trends"
"Create a presentation on microservices architecture"
```
→ Design the structure, content, and speaker notes from scratch.

### Mode B: Content/Material Provided
The user provides source material (documents, notes, data, articles).
```
"Turn this document into a presentation"
"Create slides based on these meeting notes"
```
→ Organize and distill the material into slides + speaker notes.

### Mode C: Script Provided
The user provides a written speech or speaking script.
```
"Create slides for this speech script"
"Make a visual deck that accompanies this talk"
```
→ Analyze the script's structure and create matching visual slides. The script becomes the speaker notes.

## Workflow

Follow these steps in order:

### Step 1: Analyze Input
- Determine the input mode (A, B, or C)
- Estimate the appropriate number of slides:
  - 5-min talk → 8–12 slides
  - 10-min talk → 12–18 slides
  - 15-min talk → 18–25 slides
  - 20-min talk → 25–30 slides
  - 30-min talk → 30–40 slides
- Identify the target audience and tone (technical, business, casual, academic)
- Detect the user's language from the conversation — generate content in that language
- Ask the user about the desired output format (always ask, do not skip):
  > **Which output format would you like?**
  > - **HTML** — Interactive single-file presentation you can open in a browser (navigation, animations, speaker notes built-in)
  > - **PPTX** — PowerPoint file for Office, Google Slides, or Keynote
  
  - If the user already mentioned "PowerPoint", "pptx", "PPT", ".pptx", "Google Slides", or "Keynote" in their request → skip the question and use PPTX mode
  - Otherwise, always ask explicitly before proceeding

### Step 2: Choose a Theme
Present the user with the theme gallery link for browsing:
> **Browse themes here**: https://make-slide.vercel.app

Read `references/themes.md` for the full theme list with GitHub raw URLs and recommendations by context.

If the user doesn't choose a theme, recommend one based on context:
- Tech/developer talk → `minimal-dark` or `neon-terminal`
- Business/corporate → `corporate` or `minimal-light`
- Startup pitch → `gradient-pop` or `keynote-apple`
- Data/analytics → `data-focus`
- Education/workshop → `paper` or `playful`
- Design/creative → `magazine`
- Product launch → `keynote-apple`
- Casual/team event → `playful`
