bento-slides

bento-slides is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from sammcj/agentic-coding. It costs 31 tokens per session (2,897 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A guide for creating and editing self-contained HTML slide decks in Bento's single-file format. The deck stores its presentation data as JSON inside the HTML file while the existing runtime stays unchanged.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to build or revise Bento presentations, generate slide JSON with helper scripts, keep image proportions, and replace the document data without editing the compressed runtime.
Why use it?
Hand-editing a large slide document can omit required fields or damage the embedded data. The guide provides a controlled way to generate, replace, and preserve the document content.

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

bento-slides scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 22d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/inflate_runtime.mjs, scripts/render_check.mjs), 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.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 112 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Authoring Bento decks

A Bento deck is one self-contained .bento.html file: a compressed app runtime plus the document as plain JSON in one block:

<script type="application/bento+json" id="bento-doc"> { "format":"bento/slides", ... } </script>
  • Edit that block only, in place. Leave the runtime untouched.
  • render_check.mjs --write writes the block for you. A hand-written splice must escape every < in the JSON as its unicode escape (a backslash followed by u003c), so the block never contains a literal </script> and a build script can find the block's end at the first </script> after the opening tag.
  • Chat context (no filesystem): the user copies the JSON out (Save > Copy compact JSON) and pastes your replacement back (Save > Replace from JSON). window.bento.loadDoc(json) does the same from the console.

Before touching an existing deck

  • Ask the user to close the deck in their browser. A save from the open tab overwrites your edit. Autosave keeps a recovery snapshot in IndexedDB keyed by docId, so a stale tab offers to "restore" the old version on the next open; tell the user to pick Discard.
  • If the #bento-doc block contains "format":"bento/enc", the deck is password-encrypted. Stop and tell the user; plain JSON written over it destroys the ciphertext.
  • Leave collab as found. Keys mint at creation and every save writes them, so nearly every saved deck carries ownerPriv: anyone with the file can join its live session.
    • Deleting collab severs the owner from their own room while sent copies keep the old one.
    • Tell the user once that the file contains session keys. Hand-outs: Share > View-only copy. Leaked file: Share > Reset access.
    • Every save also stamps CRDT state into collab.sync; the next open merges it with the room, so elements a script deleted come back. render_check.mjs --write drops collab.sync. If edits still reappear, the owner's other tabs are in the room: set collab.on to false and have the user Share > Reset access.
    • Otherwise set collab.on to false only when the user asks to stop sharing. Change that one field and keep the keys.

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.
