Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5 | $0.00089 | $0.09402 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00044 | $0.04701 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00018 | $0.01880 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00940 |
Grade A, and why
talksmith:md-to-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 today.
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 — 446 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
md-to-deck — render final.md to a presentation
This skill turns a Talk's cleaned final.md into a presentation. There is one render and
two exports measured from it:
- RENDER — the HTML deck. A styled HTML / Reveal.js deck built by code
(
build_html.py) from the structuredslide-model.json. Needs only Python +jinja2. This is also the live in-progress view (fromdraft.md,--draft) the orchestrator auto-fires at Step 5.5. It is the deliverable and the source of truth for how a slide looks. - EXPORT — PDF and
.pptx, on request. Both are derived from the rendered deck, not re-specified: a headless browser lays the deck out andexport_pdf.pyprints it, whileexport_pptx.pymeasures the laid-out page and rebuilds it as native PowerPoint shapes — real, editable text, not pictures of slides. Needs Chrome (or any Chromium); the.pptxalso needspython-pptxand Pillow.
Why "measured" and not "rendered again". The
.pptxused to be authored by an LLM following a 1143-line prose spec that restated every geometry rule in EMU, checked by five OOXML audits. A card's corner radius had to be changed twice, in two languages, and verified by a third. Now there is one layout engine and the exports cannot disagree with it.
Every slide is classified against the shared catalog
slide-templates.md and rendered
as the matched template; the universal invariant (labeled enumerations → cards, never plain
bullets) always holds.
What a render is asked for — two independent parameters
Neither is mandatory, and neither is written into draft.md or final.md: the same content can
be rendered any way at any time.
| Parameter | Values | Default |
|---|---|---|
formats: |
html (always produced) plus any of pdf, pptx |
html |
style: |
the deck's visual skin: default, or any file under templates/html/styles/ — currently business, editorial, forest, ocean, sunset, terminal |
default |
theme: |
light, dark |

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.

talksmith:md-to-deck is a skill published in the GitHub repository veigap/talksmith (10 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 89 tokens to every session and 9,402 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
