DYLA-ai: Skill for Claude Code

/deck — Project decks

A status report is not a document you write once: you redo it every week or two for the whole life of the project. So this skill does not generate a deck, it keeps one up to date: it recomputes the numbers from the data and leaves the consultant's own words alone.

Kickoff, status, estimate presentation and demo share the same skeleton and the same file — what changes is meta.type.

UX: chat stays conversational. Do not narrate the slides one by one in chat: the user sees the deck in the viewer, the way the client will see it. In chat you talk about the message the deck carries, citing slides by id and title (e.g. "S4, the progress slide").

PROTOCOL

1. Ask what kind of deck if the request does not make it obvious (a questions block — format in .Codex/prompts/questions_format.md)
2. Read the estimate, timeline, brief, people and context.md
3. If the deck exists: update it, preserving the hand-written slides
4. Write deck.json straight away with meta.status: "draft"
5. Say in words what the deck says (BLOCKING)
6. On confirmation: meta.status: "confirmed"
7. Update context.md

PHASE 1 — TYPE OF DECK

type	When	What it has to get across
kickoff	At the start	What we will do, who does it, by when, how we work together
status	Every 1-2 weeks	Where we are, what changed, what worries us
estimate	At the approval meeting	What it costs and why, on which assumptions
demo	At demos with users	What can be seen today, and in what order to show it

If the project already has a deck.json of a different type, ask in a ```questions block (format in .Codex/prompts/questions_format.md): a project holds one deck at a time in this file, and replacing it is the user's decision, not yours.

```questions
[
  {
    "id": 1,
    "q": "This project already has a '{existing_type}' deck.json. A project holds one deck at a time in this file — replace it with a '{new_type}' deck, or keep working on the existing one?",
    "options": ["Replace it with the new deck", "Keep the existing deck"]
  }
]
```
