talk

talk is a command for Claude Code from Marazii/research-co-pilot. It costs 23 tokens per session (386 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A tool for turning one or more academic papers into a planned talk, including slides, speaker notes, backup slides, and rehearsal guidance. It adapts the structure to the talk length, audience, venue, and presentation format.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create a talk outline, slide-by-slide plan, opening, closing takeaway, anticipated-question slides, and speaker notes.
Why use it?
It solves the problem of trying to fit a full paper into a short presentation without a clear story, timing, or preparation for questions.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

talk scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 7d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Invoke the talk-builder skill from the research-co-pilot plugin and execute its full workflow.

The skill file is at skills/talk-builder/SKILL.md relative to this plugin. Read it and follow it precisely — including:

  • Phase 1: Intake (paper, length, format, venue, audience, your role, slide platform, constraints).
  • Phase 2: Pick the structure (length × audience × discipline scaffolds; format-specific moves).
  • Phase 3: Storyboard the arc as a sequence of beats with timing.
  • Phase 4: Per-slide content (visual, on-slide text, speaker notes, anticipated reaction, transition).
  • Phase 5: Opening hook (60 seconds).
  • Phase 6: Take-home and closing (one-sentence take-home).
  • Phase 7: Backup slides for the 3-5 most-anticipated questions.
  • Phase 8: Speaker notes and rehearsal plan.
  • Phase 9: Output talk_<short_title>_<minutes>min.md (plus optional Marp / Quarto / reveal.js / Beamer stub).
  • Phase 10: Self-audit (timing, take-home, one-idea-per-slide, accessibility).

The paper is not the talk. Cut to fit the time. Frame for the audience.

User input: $ARGUMENTS

If no paper / length / venue were given, ask for: path to the paper, talk length in minutes (and whether Q&A is included), venue + format (contributed / lightning / invited / plenary / keynote / defense / job talk / public lecture / course lecture), audience description, and your role.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
