slide-authoring is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from 1weiho/open-slide. It costs 163 tokens per session (6,116 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A reference guide for creating and editing presentation slides in an open-slide project. It covers slide files, layout, text, colours, images, speaker notes, and animations.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when writing or changing slide pages, including layouts, assets, notes, stepped reveals, page changes, and morph effects.
Why use it?
It gives slide edits a consistent structure and visual system, so one-off changes do not break the deck or require guessing the file format.

About the project

open-slide is a React-based slide framework that lets coding agents create presentations from natural-language descriptions. It provides the canvas, scaling, navigation, hot reload, and presentation mode while agents write the slide components. The catalogue skills and instructions support agent-based slide authoring and revision.

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

slide-authoring 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 1mo 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 374 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Authoring open-slide pages

This skill is the technical reference for everything that happens inside slides/<id>/index.tsx. It does not own a workflow:

  • create-slide owns "draft a new deck" — it asks the user scoping questions, then delegates the how to this skill.
  • apply-comments owns "process inspector markers" — it finds markers and applies edits, but the edits themselves follow the rules here.
  • current-slide resolves deictic references ("this page", "the slide I'm on") to a concrete slideId + pageIndex. Consult it first when the user references the current slide without naming it, then come back here for how to edit it.
  • Any ad-hoc slide edit (manual tweak, one-off fix) should also consult this skill before touching the file.

When any of those paths reach the point of writing React code for a page, this is the source of truth. Do not duplicate the knowledge below into other skills — link here instead.

Primitive references

Each framework primitive has a full reference file under references/ in this skill — contract, worked examples, and its own anti-patterns. This file keeps only the always-on rules and a short summary per primitive. Read the relevant reference file before using a primitive on a page:

Primitive Read before File
design const + var(--osd-X) tokens writing any new slide (default baseline) references/design-system.md
Assets + <ImagePlaceholder> importing images/videos or leaving a placeholder references/assets.md
Webfonts loading any non-system font references/webfonts.md
useSlidePageNumber() rendering a page-number footer references/page-numbers.md
<Steps> / <Step> staging a page's reveal references/steps.md
SlideTransition declaring any enter/exit animation references/transitions.md
MorphElement + morph morphing a shared element across pages references/morph.md

Hard rules

  • Put the slide under slides/<kebab-case-id>/.
  • Entry is slides/<id>/index.tsx. Images/videos/fonts go under slides/<id>/assets/.
  • Do not touch package.json, open-slide.config.ts, or other slides.
  • Do not add dependencies. Only react, @open-slide/core, and standard web APIs are available.
  • A slide is one index.tsx plus assets/ — nothing else. Do not create sibling .tsx/.ts files (Card.tsx, components/, helpers.ts, etc.); helper components and constants go inside index.tsx. Do not create README.md or other prose files either — speaker notes / a talk script belong in the notes export (see Speaker notes below), not in a markdown file.

What ships with it

7 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
