Build a cinematic, minimalist storytelling pitch deck (A5 landscape .pptx) in the style of a senior agency — story first, problem, a single "what if" question, then the product reveal and feature scenes, ending in a demo CTA. Dark ink + gold, Playfair Display + Inter, full-bleed graded photos. Use when the user asks for a pitch deck / sales deck / product showcase deck "that tells a story", "cinematic", or a new deck for a product or audience in that style. Do NOT use for editing an existing…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Kaizen deck

A deck that tells a story before it sells. Worked example: [`examples/build-example.js`](examples/build-example.js)
(every helper on a fictional product, no images needed).

Read before building:
- [`references/story-arc.md`](references/story-arc.md) — the acts, slide recipes, copy rules, layout facts.
- [`references/rules.md`](references/rules.md) — truth, images, fonts, files, QA. Every rule there cost a redo.

If the Anthropic `pptx` skill is available, load it once (pptxgenjs gotchas, validator); `qa.sh` works without it.
Run `scripts/check.sh` first on a new machine.

## Workflow

1. **Brainstorm first.** Propose 2–3 story concepts + an outline (one line per slide) and
   ask: audience, language, data available, photos, the CTA. Build only after the outline is agreed.
2. **Deck folder:** `~/.kaizen/decks/<slug>/` — everything a deck needs and produces lives there
   (never in the user's project folders). Shared dependencies live once in `~/.kaizen/decks/`:
   `node_modules` (pptxgenjs, resolved upward by Node) and `.venv` (Pillow, defusedxml, lxml,
   fonttools, qrcode). First time on a machine:
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add hfadhlullah/kaizen/kaizen-deck@sha256:ea45299978eedff3

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261101.f8ec28b, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
