deck-ai

deck-ai is a skill for Claude Code from assafkip/kipi-system. It costs 57 tokens per session (1,478 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A local tool that turns Markdown—a plain-text document format—into a presentation deck exported as a PDF. It chooses slide layouts, fetches images from Unsplash, and renders the result with Slidev.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when you have Markdown separated into slides and want an image-rich PDF presentation with automatically selected layouts and imagery.
Why use it?
It removes much of the manual work of converting written content into designed slides. It can run locally without a subscription to a presentation service.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: shipped in a Claude Code plugin. Also seen: mentions Claude Code.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is # per slide, and WRITES ./deck-workspace/decisions.json with the Write.

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

  • high Privilege Escalation · line 41
    Code accesses credential files (SSH keys, AWS credentials, etc.). This could indicate credential theft attempts.
    Fix: Remove references to credential paths. Use environment variables or secrets managers. For docs, use placeholder paths (e.g., /path/to/config). Never load .env or token files in production code paths.

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

deck-ai 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 9d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 3 executable files (scripts/check_env.sh, scripts/fetch_images.py, scripts/render_pptx.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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 — 173 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

deck-ai

Turn plain markdown into a themed, image-rich slide deck exported as PDF. Closest open-source equivalent to Gamma. Runs locally. No subscription.

What this skill does

  1. Reads source markdown (slides separated by ---).
  2. Picks a layout + image keyword per slide. Two modes:
    • LLM mode (preferred): Claude writes decisions.json directly using the Write tool. No extra API call.
    • Rules mode (fallback): deterministic regex picks. Used when the skill is invoked from a non-LLM harness.
  3. Fetches images from Unsplash by keyword.
  4. Renders the whole thing to PDF via Slidev.

When to invoke

Triggers: "make a deck", "turn this into slides", "slide version of X", "build a presentation from this", "gamma-style deck".

Do NOT invoke for plain editing / rewriting of existing slide content. Do NOT invoke if the user wants a PPTX specifically (use python-pptx instead).

Required setup (first run)

Prerequisites

  • Node 18+ and pnpm on the user's machine. If missing: 
    brew install node
npm install -g pnpm

API key

  • Unsplash (required): https://unsplash.com/oauth/applications — only the Access Key.
  • Key lives in .env at the calling instance root: 
    echo 'UNSPLASH_ACCESS_KEY=<your-key>' >> ./.env
  • Never commit .env. Never paste the key into any file in this skill.
  • No separate Anthropic key needed — when this skill runs inside Claude Code, Claude itself writes decisions.json.

Install workspace (one-time per instance)

bash <skill>/scripts/setup.sh ./deck-workspace

This creates a local Slidev workspace with themes installed. Takes ~1-2 minutes first run. Subsequent runs reuse it.

Workflow (per deck)

# 1. Preflight: key + deps must be present
bash <skill>/scripts/check_env.sh ./deck-workspace

# 2. (LLM mode) Claude reads <input.md>, decides layout + image keyword
#    per slide, and WRITES ./deck-workspace/decisions.json with the Write
#    tool (schema below). Skip this step when running outside Claude.

# 3. Generate Slidev markdown from source
#    LLM mode:
python3 <skill>/scripts/generate.py <input.md> ./deck-workspace/slides.raw.md \
    --theme seriph --decisions ./deck-workspace/decisions.json
#    Rules mode (no decisions file):
python3 <skill>/scripts/generate.py <input.md> ./deck-workspace/slides.raw.md --theme seriph

# 4. Fill image placeholders from Unsplash
python3 <skill>/scripts/fetch_images.py ./deck-workspace/slides.raw.md

# 5. Export PDF
bash <skill>/scripts/render.sh ./deck-workspace ./deck-workspace/slides.raw.md ./deck.pdf

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.
