What it does

When installed, the agent builds a presentation as one self-contained HTML file that you open in a browser and page through with arrow keys, scrolling, or swipes. It picks one of five magazine-inspired visual directions (for example a Monocle-style editorial look), uses specific font pairings and line icons, and can add an animated WebGL background on hero pages. It walks through a short planning process first: inferring the audience and talk length, then outlining a narrative arc before generating slides. Note on the metadata: the SKILL.md front matter describes a marketing/GTM 'annual-marketing-plan' deck, but the body of the skill is about generating visual HTML slide decks in a magazine style. The body is what determines behaviour.

Great for

  • Speakers giving offline talks, demo days, or product launches who want a web-based deck with a strong visual style
  • Designers or creators who want a magazine-like slide deck without a presentation app
  • People who want a deck that opens anywhere in a browser with no paging tool

Skip it if

  • Decks heavy with tables or stacked charts, which the skill itself says suit regular PowerPoint better
  • Training courseware, since the skill notes its information density is low
  • Teams that need several people editing the same deck at once, because the output is static HTML

Try asking

  • “Create a 15-minute magazine-style deck for our AI product launch demo day”
  • “Build an editorial-style HTML slide deck from these rough notes, roughly 20 pages”
  • “Make a web slideshow for a private salon talk on slow living, using the Kinfolk direction”

  3. 3

    Ask for the task

    No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.

Get better results

  • Give the audience, talk length, and any must-keep numbers up front so the agent does not need to ask many questions
  • Keep images in the folder structure the skill describes before starting, to avoid rework
  • If you want a specific look, name the direction (for example Monocle, WIRED, Kinfolk, Domus, or Lab) in your request
