Slide Creation Toolkit

Create professional Marp/Marpit presentations, diagrams, and color systems with a consistent design language.

Core rules

• Use bg (background) syntax for all images - Reduces manual resizing with fit modifier
• Define one 7-role color palette and reuse it in slides and SVGs.
• Define one spacing unit (e.g., 8px or 16px) and reuse it across layouts.
• Define text hierarchy tiers (title/section/body) with sizes and weights; use them consistently.
• For SVGs, use one stroke width and one corner radius across shapes.

Design guidance (non-enforceable)

• Aim for clear visual hierarchy with size, weight, and saturation.
• Prefer one visual language (fill vs outline, emphasis rules).
• Minimize visual noise; keep one primary visual anchor per section.

Working directory

This umbrella skill does not own module assets or scripts. Use the focused skills (marp-authoring, slide-color-design, svg-illustration) for paths and commands.

Start here (task entry)

Entry skills (fast routing):

• marp-authoring → Marp/Marpit authoring rules, layouts, themes
• slide-color-design → palette workflow and color roles
• svg-illustration → SVG diagram rules, patterns, embedding

Pick one task and follow the exact reading path:

• Color palette only → slide-color-design
• Slides only (no diagrams) → marp-authoring
• Diagram only → svg-illustration
• Slides + diagrams → marp-authoring → svg-illustration
• Full deck (colors + slides + diagrams) → slide-color-design → marp-authoring → svg-illustration

One-page quick reference

Minimal steps (fast path):

1. Pick a palette → slide-color-design.
2. Draft slides → marp-authoring.
3. Add SVG diagrams → svg-illustration.
4. Validate via the module skills.

Common commands:

• slide-color-design → palette scripts
• marp-authoring → Marp validation/preview
• svg-illustration → SVG linting

Output summary: Use module-specific output examples via the entry skills.

Quick Start

Two Ways to Start

Option 1: Use scripts (automated):

uv run skills/marp-authoring/scripts/init_presentation.py technical-dark my-deck.md "My Title" "Author"

Option 2: Work manually (full control):

• Copy a template from marp-authoring → assets/templates/ → customize
• Design colors via slide-color-design
• Write slides via marp-authoring
• Add diagrams via svg-illustration

Study examples first: Read marp-authoring → assets/examples/ to see working presentations before starting.

Script Commands

Use slide-color-design for palette scripts and outputs.

Templates (starting points - copy and fill in your content):

• Use marp-authoring → assets/templates/.

Examples (learning references - study patterns and copy techniques):

• marp-authoring → assets/examples/ for slide patterns.
• svg-illustration → assets/examples/ for diagram examples.
• slide-color-design → assets/examples/ for palette examples.

Common icons (ready to use in slides):

• marp-authoring → assets/icons/.

Quick index (where to look)

• Reference hub: references/index.md
• Color design: slide-color-design
• Marpit authoring: marp-authoring
• SVG illustration: svg-illustration
• Decision guide: references/decision-guide.md

Modules

Use the focused skills for module-specific rules and references:

• Color design → slide-color-design
• Marpit authoring → marp-authoring
• SVG illustration → svg-illustration

Workflow

Single tasks

Draw a diagram:

1. Use svg-illustration for core rules and patterns.
2. Choose colors via slide-color-design or existing palette.

Design slide colors:

1. Use slide-color-design for workflow and templates.

Write slides:

1. Use marp-authoring for syntax and layout patterns.
2. Apply a palette from slide-color-design.

Full presentation

1. Establish a palette with the color module.
2. Outline slides and author via marp-authoring.
3. Add diagrams via svg-illustration.
4. Keep palette, spacing, and hierarchy consistent.

Decision guide

See references/decision-guide.md for a flowchart and loading strategy.

Quick rules:

Slides or deck -> marp-authoring
Slides + colors -> slide-color-design -> marp-authoring
Slides + diagrams -> marp-authoring + svg-illustration
Diagram only -> svg-illustration

Scale reference loading:

Simple request -> core rules only
Complex request -> add patterns and best-practices

Output formats

Use the focused skills for module-specific output formats:

• slide-color-design → references/output-examples.md
• marp-authoring → references/output-examples.md
• svg-illustration → references/output-examples.md

Integration rules

• Use palette hex values in SVG fill and stroke.
• Keep border radius and stroke widths consistent between Marpit and SVG.
• Embed SVGs with Markdown images or file references.

Troubleshooting

Common cross-cutting issues:

• references/troubleshooting-common.md
• svg-illustration → references/troubleshooting.md

Common mistakes

• Using absolute paths instead of relative paths for assets.
• Using multiple palettes across one deck or between slides and SVGs.
• Skipping validation checks (Marp, SVG lint, contrast).

See marp-authoring, slide-color-design, and svg-illustration for module-specific mistakes.

Quick check (minimal)

Use module-specific quick checks:

• marp-authoring → validation/preview workflow
• svg-illustration → SVG lint checks
• slide-color-design → contrast checks

Validation

Use the module-specific validation guides:

• marp-authoring → references/preview-workflow.md
• svg-illustration → references/troubleshooting.md
• slide-color-design → references/color-design/workflow.md (validation checklist)

Always validate before committing files using the focused skills.

Constraints

• Output Marpit Markdown only; do not generate PowerPoint/Keynote files.
• Output SVG only; do not generate raster images.
• Avoid interactive animations; keep slides static.
• Preserve provided brand colors; adapt them into the palette.
