SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Building a professional PPTX deck without a locked narrative, verified sources, and a defined design direction leads to inconsistent slides and unsupported claims. This Skill structures the preparation phase so every deck starts with a confirmed audience, framework, source manifest, and style lock.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Narrative Framework Selection: Guides the user through choosing a framework such as mckinsey, scqa, pyramid, mece, action-title, assertion-evidence, exec-summary-first, or custom instead of silently picking one.
  • Source Lineage Tracking: Assigns stable source IDs and plans a source_ref for every metric, quotation, chart value, and factual claim in the deck.
  • Design Direction Lock: Records palette, typography, spacing, and signature elements from a brand guide, reference-deck evidence, or reusable profiles like fluent-ui-design-tokens, primer-primitives, and editorial-minimal.
  • Use Case: Before authoring slides for a quarterly executive review, use this Skill to confirm the audience and decision, select the scqa framework, register all data sources, and lock an editorial-minimal design profile into the deck summary.

Quick Start

Frequently Asked Questions about pptx-deck-context

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I plan a PPTX deck before creating slides?▼

Start by confirming the audience, decision, slide count, language, sources, and brand requirements. Then select a narrative framework such as scqa or pyramid, assign source IDs to every claim, and lock a design direction before authoring any slide content.

What narrative frameworks can I use for presentation structure?▼

Supported frameworks include mckinsey, scqa, pyramid, mece, action-title, assertion-evidence, exec-summary-first, and custom. The skill asks the user to choose explicitly rather than selecting one silently.

How do I track sources for data in a presentation?▼

Assign a stable source ID to each source and plan a source_ref for every metric, quotation, chart value, and factual claim. Record the full source manifest in the deck summary so lineage is preserved during authoring.

Can I reuse design styles from other decks or design systems?▼

Yes, prefer an explicit user brand guide first, then read-only reference-deck evidence, then reusable profiles like fluent-ui-design-tokens, primer-primitives, or editorial-minimal. Do not copy proprietary fonts, images, logos, or slide content without licensing evidence.

Why should design references not be used as content sources?▼

Design references provide visual evidence only, such as palette and spacing signals, not factual content or assets. Treating them as content sources risks copying unlicensed material and mixing unsupported claims into the deck.
