write-speaker-notes

write-speaker-notes is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from alohays/paper2pr. It costs 70 tokens per session (3,849 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for writing the full script a presenter reads aloud while giving Quarto RevealJS slides. Quarto is a tool for creating documents and presentations from text files, and RevealJS displays them as web slides.

In plain words
What is it for?
Write scripts for paper reviews, lectures, and invited talks in English or Korean, using the deck's declared format and profile.
Why use it?
It turns slide content into spoken sentences instead of leaving the presenter to prepare notes from scratch.

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

write-speaker-notes 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 3d 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 — 362 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Speaker Notes (Presentation Script) Workflow

Generate a verbatim reading script for a deck. The presenter reads these notes as-is during the talk, so every note is the actual sentences to say aloud, in the language the deck declares.

CRITICAL: These are presentation scripts (대본), NOT talking points. Full spoken sentences that flow naturally when read aloud.

The deck's genre decides what a good script is. Never guess the genre: read the resolved profile first (Phase 0B) and apply the matching genre section below. The mechanics (where notes live, the three privacy layers) are the same for every genre.


Phase 0: Pre-Flight Checks

0A. Identify Target File

Decks live at Quarto/<genre>/<name>.qmd. Resolve the argument rather than building a path by hand:

python3 scripts/deckpath.py [Deck] --field qmd

A bare name works; genre/name disambiguates if two genres ever share one. If no argument, ask the user. python3 scripts/deckpath.py --list shows what exists.

0B. Read the Deck's Premises (profile + deck.yml)

Everything the script depends on is declared, not guessed. Read both, first thing:

python3 scripts/deckprofile.py [Deck]                       # resolved config, JSON
cat "$(python3 scripts/deckpath.py [Deck] --field config)"  # the raw deck.yml

From the resolved JSON:

  • profile - which genre section below applies: paper-review, lecture, or invited-talk
  • notes_language - ko (280 Hangul syllables/min) or en (130 words/min)
  • speaking_min - the minutes the presenter actually talks
  • prior_session - for a lecture in a series: the previous session's title, week, date and presenter. The opening note names it (see Genre: Lecture)
  • sources - what technical claims in the notes are checked against

From the raw deck.yml: audience.assumes, audience.size, audience.prior and delivery - review-agent context the resolved JSON does not carry; the invited-talk section depends on it.

Budget = speaking_min x 280 Hangul syllables (ko) or x 130 words (en).

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.
