presentation-talk-track-builder

Overview

This skill turns slides into a spoken talk track. For each requested slide it writes a first-person script the presenter can read aloud, grounded in the slide's content and — above all — its speaker notes. It calibrates the script length to a target time and speaking pace and returns a timing table so the presenter knows whether they will land on time.

Core rule: the speaker notes are the source of truth. When notes and slide text disagree, the script follows the notes and silently drops the contradicted slide text. This is what the author intended to say.

Works across Scout, Copilot Studio, and Cowork. The user can attach a .pptx, provide slide images, paste slide text, or provide an outline.

When to Use

• "I'm presenting slides 8-11, write a script for each so I can present them."
• "Turn my speaker notes into what I should actually say."
• "Make a ~6-minute talk track for these four slides; I speak fast."
• "Write presenter narration for this deck / these slide images."
• "Give me a word-for-word script with pauses and a handoff to the next speaker."

When NOT to Use

• Creating, designing, or editing the visible content of the slides themselves.
• Summarizing a recorded meeting, call, or transcript.
• Writing a standalone document, memo, or article.
• A quick one-line answer that isn't a spoken script — answer inline.

Quick Start

User: "I'm presenting slides 8-11, write a script for each. If the notes
       contradict the slides, follow the notes. Target ~6 minutes, business
       audience."
1. Capture inputs — audience & goals, slide content, optional supporting
   context.
2. Extract BOTH slide text AND speaker notes for the requested slides.
3. Reconcile: where notes contradict slides, follow the notes.
4. Calibrate: target minutes × pace (words/min) = word budget; split by
   slide.
5. Write a first-person script per slide with delivery cues + a handoff line.
6. Return the scripts + a per-slide timing table (words → spoken minutes).
7. Offer to save as speaker notes back into a copy of the deck, or as a doc.
