SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires @slidev/cli, playwright, gemini-client, and includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

The Slidev automation skill helps teams translate high-level intent into ready-to-run slide decks, eliminating manual drafting, formatting drift, and back-and-forth iterations.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automated deck initialization and theming with a single command
  • End-to-end workflow: capture inputs, strategy brief, layout decisions, slide writing, validation, and export
  • SP2 image-generation integration and fallback placeholders for environments without image APIs
  • Strong frontmatter governance, two-column and multi-pattern slide templates, and density controls for consistent visuals
  • Real-world patterns: converting existing documents into slides, and scaling decks for different audiences

Quick Start

Create a new deck with a chosen title and theme, then begin authoring slides.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate presentation creation from a high-level intent or existing document?

Automating presentation creation from high-level intent involves capturing inputs, generating a strategy brief, assigning layouts, writing slides, and running validation gates. This eliminates manual formatting drift and back-and-forth iterations for ready-to-run Slidev decks.

What is the best way to enforce consistent frontmatter and layout structure in Slidev decks?

To enforce consistent frontmatter and layout structure in Slidev decks, automated quality gates validate catalog-compliant slide writing, frontmatter rules, and density controls. This ensures consistent visuals across two-column and multi-pattern slide templates.

Do I need an image generation API to use automated slide deck workflows?

You do not strictly need an image generation API for automated slide deck workflows. The process supports SP2 image-generation integration but automatically provides fallback placeholders in environments without image APIs.

Can I scale a single presentation deck for both code-heavy technical talks and executive briefs?

Yes, you can scale a single presentation deck for both code-heavy technical talks and executive briefs. The workflow applies theme inference and layout assignment to scale decks appropriately for different audiences.

Why does the automated deck generation process require a brief confirmation before final production?

Automated deck generation requires a brief confirmation before production to act as a hard quality gate. This ensures the strategy brief and layout decisions match user intent before the final slide writing and export phases begin.
