- Create bold, minimal slide decks and investor pitch decks. Covers the full presentation workflow including narrative structure, slide copywriting, visual design (typography, layouts, section colors), speaker notes, and async-readable pitch decks. Supports dark and light themes. Use when asked to "create a presentation", "outline a deck", "write slides about...", "design a talk on...", "build a pitch deck", "investor presentation", "help me with my talk", "draft slide content", "write speaker notes", or any task involving planning, structuring, writing, designing, or preparing a slide deck for live presenting or standalone distribution.
Creating Presentations
Build bold, minimal presentations designed for live impact or standalone reading.
Workflow
Determine which phase applies and load the relevant reference:
- Outline - structure the narrative arc and section flow: references/outline.md
- Write - bold headlines and minimal slide copy: references/content.md
- Design - visual layout, typography, and composition: references/design.md
- Notes - speaker notes for natural delivery: references/notes.md
For investor pitch decks (standalone, async): follow references/pitch-deck.md instead. Uses the 10-slide framework with denser copy optimized for reading without a presenter.
Principles
- One message per slide - if it takes more than 5 seconds to read, cut it
- Headlines do the work - bold statements ("AI has no memory"), not explanations ("Discussion of AI context limitations")
- Scale over weight - big text at light weight (400-500), not small text in bold
- Section colors - each major section gets its own accent color for visual rhythm
- High contrast - dark (#000 bg, white text) or light (#fafafa bg, dark text) with colored accents
- Notes prompt, not script - scannable bullet cues for riffing, not paragraphs to read
Standard Flow
1. Opening (teal) - Title + goals (3 takeaways max)
2. Context (red) - Current state, the tension to resolve
3-5. Core (varies) - 3-5 slides per section, dividers between
6. Closing (teal) - Recap + resources + Q&A
Context Adjustments
- Internal: assume shared context, be direct, reference history
- External: more setup, clearer transitions, define terms
- Recorded/async: tighter copy, stronger signposting
