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 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 5d 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 — 45 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

deck — master-template renderer

Generate a brand-perfect .pptx by composing plans against a brand pack's master.pptx. The master supplies typography, colors, footers, slide-number chrome — the renderer only fills placeholders and clones bespoke shapes.

Quick Start

from pathlib import Path
from feinschliff import FillPlan, render

render(
    Path("feinschliff/brands/feinschliff"),
    [FillPlan(layout="Title Slide", fills={0: "Q3 update", 1: "Roadmap"})],
    Path("out.pptx"),
)

Author the call in feinschliff/.debug/<topic>-<date>/build.py and run it with feinschliff build.py — the plugin's launcher execs the venv Python directly, no CLI in between.

Brand packs

Each pack ships under feinschliff/brands/<name>/ with a master.pptx (or .ref pointer) and catalog files. Built-in packs: feinschliff (default), annual-review, geometric, scientific, shapes, gs-ramspau. Corporate / private packs surface through sibling feinschliff-* plugin directories ($FEINSCHLIFF_BRAND_PATH). Run python -m feinschliff.master_template.catalog <brand_pack> to list layouts + snippets for any pack.

Mental model

A deck is a list of plans, in slide order:

  • FillPlan(layout, fills) — pick a layout by name (see <brand>/layouts.yaml), fill placeholders by idx. Values: str, list[str], PictureRef, or ChartSpec. Charts and pictures replace the OBJECT placeholder.
  • ClonePlan(source_idx, replacements) — XML-clone a bespoke source slide from <brand>/snippets.yaml. replacements is a queue per old-string; repeating ("Milestone", ...) consumes successive occurrences in document order.
  • render(..., theme=Path|dict) — optional. Patches the master's theme1.xml <a:clrScheme> from a small JSON. One master.pptx, N visual variations; the file on disk is never touched.

Flow

  1. Interview if the brief is thin. Topic + audience are the minimum; references/storyline.md maps audience to a default slide count.
  2. Draft the storyline per references/storyline.md — emit the brief block + numbered slides block, pick a frame, tag each row with role and act, write claim-style titles.
  3. Pick layouts per references/layouts.md. For bespoke shapes (timelines, funnels, infographics) clone from <brand>/snippets.yaml — see references/clones.md for the text-anchor recipe.
  4. Approval gate — show storyline + chosen layouts, ask "ok?". Don't render until approved.
  5. Render with the Quick Start snippet. Respect the verbosity tier when sizing fills. See references/gotchas.md for pitfalls.
  6. Verify and loop — convert to PDF and read the pages against the defect classes in references/verify.md. Fix and re-render until clean; the reference describes the /loop-driven iteration.

What ships with it

5 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.

Changes

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.
