Generate a complete HTML slide deck from a topic, bullet list, or document. McKinsey-style — one insight per slide, no filler. Use when the user wants to build a presentation, pitch deck, or teaching slide deck.

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

1 rule. About 0 are common, 1 is distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.

  • ≈0

    Common · estimate

    Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

  • ≈1

    Distinctive · estimate

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 0

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Distinctive:

    Every slide has exactly one headline that is a complete insight, not a topic label

    line 15

≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 308,232 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

Ask the user:

  1. "What's the topic and what's the goal of this deck? (e.g. pitch to investors, teach a concept, quarterly review)"
  2. "Who is the audience and how much do they already know?"
  3. "How many slides — and do you want speaker notes?"
  4. "Paste any source material: bullets, doc, outline."

Then produce a complete single-file HTML presentation:

Slide structure (McKinsey rules):

  • Every slide has exactly one headline that is a complete insight, not a topic label
    • Bad: "Market Opportunity"
    • Good: "The $4B SMB payroll market is 80% undigitized — and no one owns it"
  • Body supports the headline — doesn't repeat it
  • Max 5 bullets per slide, max 8 words per bullet
  • No decorative transitions

Required slides:

  1. Title slide — punchy, specific
  2. Agenda / flow (for decks over 10 slides)
  3. Content slides — one insight each
  4. Summary / So what — what should the audience do or believe now?

HTML requirements:

  • Full self-contained HTML (no external dependencies)
  • Keyboard navigation: arrow keys advance/go back
  • Clean, minimal design — dark background or white, your call
  • Progress indicator
  • Speaker notes in a hidden div (shown with N key if requested)

Your trail

Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.

Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.

Now do this for your own.

Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
