description

Generate a premium 6-slide presentation design board as one single composite image. Use this skill whenever the user asks for PPT design concepts, keynote-style slide mockups, a strategy deck visual, an editorial / sports / news / business analysis deck, a TV-friendly slide layout, or any "6-page slide board" / "design these slides" / "PPT 设计稿" / "幻灯片设计图" request. The skill plans the deck slide-by-slide, asks the user to pick light vs dark mode, selects layouts from a named layout library, has the user approve the plan, then generates the composite image and self-reflects on the rendered result. Do NOT trigger for text-only deck outlines (the user wants writing, not visuals), single-slide design (this skill always produces 6), or live editable PPTX/Keynote files (this skill produces a rendered image).

Presentation Design

Create a premium 6-slide presentation design board as one single composite image — a board view that lets the user see the whole deck at a glance, TV-ready and cinematic.

Primary use cases: PPT design concepts, keynote-style slide mockups, strategy deck visuals, event / news / sports / business analysis decks, editorial data stories, executive presentations.

Image Generation Requirement

The final board must be generated by an image-generation model (use the built-in image_gen tool by default, or an approved project image-generation workflow). Do not create the board with code, SVG, HTML/CSS, canvas, diagrams, placeholder drawings, or deterministic shape scripts. Those methods may be used only for non-visual file operations or optional post-processing after the model-generated image exists.

Save the model-generated raster output to presentations/{name}.png. If the model output cannot be saved directly, locate the generated raster asset and move/copy it into the required path; do not recreate it programmatically.

Output Contract

One single image containing all 6 slides:

┌──────────────┬──────────────┐
│ Slide 01     │ Slide 02     │
├──────────────┼──────────────┤
│ Slide 03     │ Slide 04     │
├──────────────┼──────────────┤
│ Slide 05     │ Slide 06     │
└──────────────┴──────────────┘

• 6 slides total
• 2 columns × 3 rows
• each slide visually reads as 16:9
• overall composite board is 3:2
• single composite PNG

Output Location

presentations/
  {name}.plan.md     # the approved deck plan (spec)
  {name}.png         # the final composite image

Use lowercase, hyphenated, ASCII-safe names. For revisions, suffix with -v2, -final, -alt-a. Do not overwrite existing files unless the user asks for replacement.

Inputs to Extract

Before designing, identify:

• Topic / subject of the deck.
• Audience (executives, fans, general public, B2B buyers, students, etc.).
• Tone (cinematic, analytical, celebratory, urgent, premium, playful).
• Brand colors or required accents, if any.
• Required language for slide text (English, Chinese, bilingual, etc.).
• Any specific data, charts, maps, portraits, products, or symbolic visuals that must appear.
• Output name, if specified.

If the user does not specify language, use the user's local language.

Workflow

1. Extract inputs from the user's brief (see Inputs to Extract).

2. Ask the user for style mode: light or dark — always ask via AskUserQuestion (do not silently infer). Offer dark cinematic as the default suggestion when the topic is ambiguous.

3. Load references/style-modes.md and pick the most appropriate sub-mode (e.g. dark sports broadcast for an NBA recap, light minimal keynote for a B2B SaaS pitch). Briefly state the chosen palette and typography direction to the user.

4. Load references/slide-layouts.md and select 6 layouts that together form a coherent narrative arc. Mix layouts — do not repeat the same one across all 6. Always use hero-title for slide 01 and closer for slide 06 unless the topic demands otherwise. State the chosen layout sequence.

5. Write the deck plan (mandatory) to presentations/{name}.plan.md. For each of the 6 slides include:

   • slide_no — 01–06.
   • layout — one of the names from the layout library.
   • title — the headline that will appear on the slide.
   • subtitle — optional one-line framing.
   • content — 3–6 short bullets / key points in slide-native language (no essay paragraphs).
   • visual — description of the hero image, chart, map, portrait, or symbolic visual that occupies the tile, plus how it integrates with the text.
   • accent_use — where the accent color appears on this slide (title, divider, chart highlight, etc.).

   Show the plan to the user and wait for confirmation or revisions. If the user revises, update presentations/{name}.plan.md and re-confirm before proceeding.

6. After the user approves the plan, generate the first composite image with image_gen. Build the prompt by composing:

   • Output contract (3:2 board, 2×3 grid of 16:9 tiles, single PNG).
   • Selected style mode + palette + typography direction from .

Content Density Rules

Each slide should be rich but not cluttered. Preferred density per slide:

• 1 main title.
• 1 short subtitle or framing line (optional).
• 3–6 short content points.
• 1 dominant visual system (hero image, chart, map, portrait, product, or symbolic scene).
• Optional chart, metric card, or timeline element.

Avoid: essay-like writing, too many bullet points, overexplaining, raw article summaries, tiny unreadable text, excessive icons, inconsistent information density.

Use slide-native language: short, sharp, visual, structured, easy to scan.

Board-Level Composition Rules

• The full image is 3:2.
• The 6 slides are arranged in 2 columns × 3 rows.
• Slides have clean gutters or subtle borders between tiles.
• Consistent margins across the board.
• All 6 tiles share the same style mode, accent system, and typography — the deck must feel unified at a glance.
• Accent color usage must be consistent across all 6 slides.
• Each slide should have a clear focal point, strong title hierarchy, enough breathing room, integrated visuals, readable text, and the premium presentation feel defined in Quality Bar.

Self-Reflection Loop

Always run both passes before declaring the board final.

Pass 1 — Structure & Story

Check:

• Is the 6-slide story coherent?
• Does each slide have a clear role?
• Is the order logical?
• Is anything missing?
• Is any slide redundant?
• Is the content too vague or too crowded?

Improve: slide sequence, narrative clarity, content hierarchy, factual compression, section naming.

Pass 2 — Visual Polish

Check:

• Does the board look premium?
• Is the chosen mode (dark or light) elegant, not muddy or flat?
• Is the design suitable for TV display?
• Are the images naturally embedded?
• Are there repeated or boring layouts?
• Is the contrast strong enough?
• Do all 6 slides feel like one deck?

Improve: contrast, spacing, typography, color balance, hero image integration, chart readability, cinematic depth, consistency.

Quality Bar

The final design should feel like:

• a premium conference deck
• a high-end sports broadcast graphic package
• a cinematic strategy presentation
• an editorial data story
• a TV-ready executive presentation

The final design must not feel like:

• a random collage
• six unrelated posters
• a comic page
• a low-effort infographic
• a plain document
• a cluttered dashboard
• a generic template

References

Load these on-demand during the workflow — they are not read by default to keep this file lean.

• references/slide-layouts.md — named layout library. Load at workflow step 4 when choosing the 6-slide composition.
• references/style-modes.md — light / dark sub-modes with concrete palettes and typography direction. Load at workflow step 3 after the user picks light or dark.
