presentation-design skillA
presentation-design is agent-read markdown (skill) from cbrock84/headcount: Designs slide decks and one-pagers that carry an argument rather than decorate one — deck structure, headlines that state the takeaway, charts that make a single point, and the different rules board decks and conference talks follow. Use this to build or fix a pitch deck, board deck, or conference talk, to design a one-pager, or when a deck is dense, unfocused, or being read aloud from the slides. For social graphics, carousels and infographics, use `marketing:visual-content` instead..
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.
What the file says
# Presentation design ## Decks **The deck is not the talk.** Slides that contain the argument make the speaker redundant and the reader confused. Decide which artifact you are making — a spoken-support deck or a read-alone document — because they have opposite rules and the hybrid fails at both. **One idea per slide.** If a slide needs a sub-argument, it is two slides. The cost of an extra slide is zero; the cost of a crowded one is that nothing on it lands. **Structure carries more than styling:** 1. Open with the change in the world that makes this matter now. 2. State the problem in the audience's terms, not yours. 3. The argument, in the smallest number of steps that hold. 4. The evidence — one chart per claim, not a dashboard. 5. The ask, stated explicitly. A deck that ends without an ask was a briefing. **On slides:** headline states the takeaway, not the topic — "Churn concentrates in month two," not "Churn analysis." If the reader only reads headlines, they should get the argument. **Charts:** one message each, labeled directly rather than through a legend, with the axis honest. Strip everything that is not carrying information. …
