SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Derive a complete StyleGuide (palette, typography, layout templates, image style tokens) through collaborative exploration with the Speaker, while respecting brand constraints whenever a BrandProfile exists.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Read inputs from the talk brief and an optional brand profile to anchor design directions.
  • Produce a complete StyleGuide including color palette, typography pairings, layout templates, and image style tokens, aligned with the deck's narrative and brand constraints.
  • Support design modes: strict brand compliance, guided brand compliance, or no BrandProfile, enabling flexible exploration.
  • Output a finalized StyleGuide ready for use by the deck generation and production workflow.

Quick Start

Invoke /slide-stylist (optionally with --deck-dir to target a specific deck directory) to derive the StyleGuide.

Frequently Asked Questions about slide-stylist

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

FAQPage Schema
What are the limitations of collaborative styleguide design for deck production?▼

The styleguide design depends on reading a talk brief and optional brand profile as inputs. Without a brand profile, it operates in a no-constraint mode, which may not satisfy workflows requiring strict brand compliance.

How do I create a presentation styleguide with color palette and typography?▼

A presentation styleguide defines palette, typography pairings, layout templates, and image style tokens to align deck visuals. This Skill derives a complete styleguide collaboratively, respecting brand constraints when a brand profile is provided.

Can I generate slide layout templates that follow strict brand compliance rules?▼

Strict brand compliance is supported as a design mode when a BrandProfile exists. The Skill reads the brand profile to anchor design directions and produces fixed layout templates aligned with brand constraints.

Do I need a brand profile to derive a styleguide for my deck production workflow?▼

A brand profile is optional. The Skill supports a no BrandProfile design mode enabling flexible exploration, alongside strict and guided brand compliance modes for workflows where brand constraints apply.

What's the difference between guided and strict brand compliance for presentation design?▼

Strict brand compliance enforces brand profile constraints rigidly, while guided brand compliance allows some design exploration within brand boundaries. Both modes produce a styleguide with palette, typography, and layout templates.

How do I define image style tokens for a presentation styleguide?▼

Image style tokens are defined as part of the finalized styleguide output. The Skill derives these tokens alongside color palette, typography pairings, and fixed layout templates during collaborative exploration.
