How to use the Biennale Yellow Art Deck agent skill
Updated · written with AI from the project's own documentation and checked against our catalogue data
The Biennale Yellow Art Deck is an agent skill: a packaged set of instructions and a ready-made HTML slide template that an AI agent such as Claude can load and follow. It is built for curators, arts institutions and designers who want a quiet, editorial-style deck with warm parchment backgrounds, indigo serif type and sun-glow gradients. This guide explains what the skill does, how to install it, how to ask for a deck in plain language, and what to check before you rely on the output.

What the skill makes the agent do
The skill gives the agent a single self-contained HTML deck template called Biennale Yellow. Its typography, palette, decorative elements and slide layouts are designed to work together. When you ask for a biennale or museum-style deck, the agent fills the template with your headlines, works, rooms and visitor journey, and can add new slides in the same visual style.
The skill is a styling and layout template. It is not a tool that analyses data or connects to outside services.
- Produces an HTML slide deck with a warm parchment background, deep indigo serif type and solar-yellow accents
- Adds new slides in the same visual style when you need more content
- Keeps the template's fonts, palette and decorative elements unchanged
Install the Biennale Yellow skill
Download the skill ZIP from our page and unzip it. You can install it in one of two places: your personal skills folder at ~/.claude/skills/, or the .claude/skills/ folder of a specific project.
If you use the Claude apps instead, you can upload the ZIP under Settings → Capabilities → Skills.
- Personal install: unzip into ~/.claude/skills/
- Project install: unzip into the .claude/skills/ folder inside your project
- Claude apps: Settings → Capabilities → Skills, then upload the ZIP
Trigger the skill with a natural request
You do not need special syntax. Describe the deck you want in plain language and mention the kind of event or institution. The skill's listed triggers include phrases such as "html deck", "html slides", "design" and "brand", as well as the skill's own name.
Before writing slides, the skill's example prompt asks for missing essentials: audience, decision target, source materials, deadline and any numbers that must stay exact. Having these ready will give you a better first draft.
- "Make an HTML slide deck for our contemporary art biennale for the museum board."
- "Build a curatorial pitch in html slides covering the thesis, the rooms, the works and the visitor journey."
- "Turn my exhibition notes into an html deck in the Biennale Yellow style."
What to provide the agent
The skill works from your own content. Give the agent the exhibition thesis, room names, works or artists, the visitor journey, and the audience. Share the figures you must keep exact, such as visitor numbers or dates, so the agent uses them as written.
The workflow in SKILL.md starts by copying example.html into your workspace as the working file. The agent then replaces placeholder text with your content and matches image placeholder sizes when you swap images.
- Thesis and room or section names
- Works, artists or exhibits to feature
- Audience and the decision you want from them
- Numbers and dates that must not change
Safety notes: scripts and network
According to the listing, this skill does not run scripts and does not use the network. It lists no required tools or dependencies. The files included are example.html, SKILL.md and template.json.
The SKILL.md also refers to a LICENSE file and to an assets/ runtime folder. The listed files do not include those, so check the unzipped folder before redistributing copies. The upstream MIT license must travel with any copy of example.html, template.json or vendored assets, according to the source.
- Runs scripts: no
- Uses network: no
- Requires: nothing listed
- Keep the upstream license notice with any copies you redistribute
Tips for better results
Keep the design system intact. The skill asks the agent not to swap fonts, recolour the palette or remove decorative elements such as corner brackets and paper grain. If you need a different identity, pick another template.
To make the deck longer, the agent duplicates an existing slide of the most suitable layout. To make it shorter, it drops slides from the bottom. Ask for the page count you need in your request.
- Use this skill for quiet, single-colour editorial decks, not for bold multi-colour presentations
- Ask for new layouts when needed; the agent designs them with the same fonts, palette and decorative style
- Review all names, dates and numbers before presenting
What people use it for
- A curator preparing a board pitch for a contemporary art biennale
- An arts institution announcing its annual programme as a web-based deck
- A studio presenting a retrospective in a quiet editorial look
- A design conference team making an HTML brochure-style presentation
Frequently asked questions
How do I install the Biennale Yellow agent skill?
Download the skill ZIP from our page and unzip it into ~/.claude/skills/ for personal use, or into a project's .claude/skills/ folder. In the Claude apps, you can instead upload the ZIP under Settings → Capabilities → Skills.
Is the Biennale Yellow skill free?
The skill is listed under the Apache-2.0 licence. The SKILL.md also mentions an upstream MIT licence for the vendored template, which must be kept with any copies you redistribute. Check the LICENSE file included with the skill for the exact terms.
What does the skill require?
The listing says it requires nothing, runs no scripts and uses no network connection. It is a styling and layout template.
Can the agent change the colours or fonts?
Not according to the skill's instructions. It asks the agent to keep the fonts, palette, layout grid and decorative elements unchanged. If you need your own brand identity, the listing recommends a different skill.
Is there an alternative for bold, colourful presentations?
Yes. The listing says this skill is not suited to decks needing bold, multi-colour energy, because its palette is intentionally restrained. Look for a template with a more vibrant palette for that purpose.
Why does my deck not look like the example?
Check that the agent copied example.html as the working file and kept the template's CSS and decorative elements. If the output lost its styling, ask the agent to restore the original design system from the template.

Our verdict
Use this skill if you are a curator, arts institution or designer who wants a calm, single-colour editorial deck in HTML and you are happy to supply your own content. Pick something else if you need bold colour, a strict brand identity you must follow, or a deck that analyses data.
