talk

What problem does it solve? Building a conference talk involves many disconnected steps — shaping the argument, structuring slides, writing speaker notes, styling the deck, building it, and checking consistency — and doing them ad hoc produces generic, AI-sounding results. This Skill gathers the talk's inputs once and drives six sub-skills in order, with anti-slop quality gates between every stage. ## Core Features & Use Cases - End-to-end pipeline orchestration: Runs content brief, slide structure, delivery plan, slide styling, deck build, and refinement as six sequential stages, each producing a versioned artifact in a shared working directory. - Keep-It-Human quality gates: Applies Gates A–E from the bundled references between stages, refusing to advance when 3+ flags (4+ for visual checks) accumulate, and verifies every statistic against a fact-checked bibliography. - Resume and standalone modes: Detects existing artifacts in the working directory and resumes from the furthest completed stage, or runs any single stage (content, slides, delivery, style, build, refine) on its own. - Use Case: You are speaking at a conference in three weeks. Provide your topic, talk type, time slot, audience, venue, and point of view, and the pipeline produces a content brief, assertion-titled slide structure, cue cards, a styled custom React deck, and a ship-readiness report. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to help you build a conference talk from your idea, providing the topic, talk type, time limit, audience, venue, and your point of view.
