lazyslides: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/new-presentation/SKILL.md

new-presentation is a skill for Claude Code from Chrisissorry/lazyslides. It costs 31 tokens per session (1,997 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guided workflow for creating a LazySlides presentation from the beginning. It collects the presentation details, develops an outline, chooses slide layouts, and creates `index.md`.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan a presentation, gather metadata and key points, create an outline, map content to layouts, and generate the presentation source file.
Why use it?
It turns an initial idea into the files and structure expected by the presentation system. It also helps shape the content for its audience, purpose, and time limit.

This is Chrisissorry/lazyslides's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on lazyslides itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything lazyslides configures →

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

new-presentation 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.

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.

Create New Presentation

You are helping the user create a new presentation in this Eleventy + Reveal.js presentation system.

Step 1: Gather Basic Information

Ask the user for:

  1. Presentation name (required) - will be used for folder name (kebab-case)
  2. Presentation date (optional) - format: MMYYYY (e.g., 032026 for March 2026)

Create the folder at presentations/{name}-{date}/ or presentations/{name}/ if no date provided.

Step 2: Check for Outline

Ask the user if they have an outline.md file to supply.

If NO outline exists:

Help them create one by gathering:

  1. Audience - Who will be watching this presentation?
  2. Purpose - What's the goal? (inform, persuade, teach, pitch, etc.)
  3. Speaker background - What gives the speaker credibility on this topic?
  4. Key points - What are the 3-5 main messages they want to convey?
  5. Desired structure - Do they have a mental model? (problem/solution, journey, comparison, etc.)
  6. Time constraint - How long is the presentation? (affects slide count)

Use this information to draft an outline.md in the presentation folder with this structure:

# [Presentation Title]

## Metadata
- **Audience:** [description]
- **Purpose:** [goal]
- **Speaker:** [name and background]
- **Duration:** [estimated time]

## Key Messages
1. [message 1]
2. [message 2]
3. [message 3]

## Outline

### Section 1: [Section Name]
Purpose: [why this section exists]

#### Slide 1.1: [Slide Title]
- **Key point:** [main takeaway]
- **Notes:** [what to say]
- **Visual idea:** [optional visualization concept]

#### Slide 1.2: [Slide Title]
...

### Section 2: [Section Name]
...

If outline IS supplied:

Review it and confirm:

  • Does it have clear sections?
  • Does each slide have a key point?
  • Is there enough detail to select templates?

If not, iterate with the user to fill in gaps.

Step 3: Map Slides to Templates

Review each slide in the outline and propose a template. The available templates are in _includes/slides/:

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.
