presentation-guidelines

A set of guidelines for planning and presenting Reveal.js slide decks, which are web-based presentations. It covers slide structure, concise content, media, testing, navigation, and built-in presentation features.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to organise a deck, prepare code and visuals, test a presentation, add speaker notes or fragments, and practise navigation.
Why use it?
It helps prevent crowded slides and presentation failures. The checklist encourages focused content, consistent styling, tested media, and a backup plan.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

presentation-guidelines 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 2d 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.

Presentation Structure Guidelines

General Structure

  • Keep slides simple and focused on one main point per slide
  • Use consistent styling throughout your presentation
  • Consider your audience's perspective and needs
  • Aim for 1-2 minutes per slide on average

Content Guidelines

  • Use short, concise bullet points instead of paragraphs
  • Include relevant images, diagrams, or charts to illustrate points
  • Keep code examples short and highlight important parts
  • Use transitions and animations purposefully, not gratuitously

Technical Tips

  • Test your presentation in the environment where you'll present
  • Ensure all media (images, videos) is properly loaded
  • Have a backup plan in case of technical difficulties
  • Practice navigating through your slides, including vertical navigation

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.
