Use when creating, building, drafting, editing, or reviewing a Beamer / LaTeX slide deck (.tex) in this repo, especially under ml/. Loads the instructor's slide-design conventions - deck structure, color palette, figures, tone, math/code depth, and the new-deck workflow - so every deck comes out consistent. The full guide is ml/SLIDE_STYLE.md (single source of truth).

Slide style (ml Beamer decks)

First action: read ml/SLIDE_STYLE.md and follow it. That file is the single source of truth; this skill is just the trigger. The essentials:

New-deck workflow (do in this order)

Interview the instructor on content for this deck — scope, include vs cut, examples, depth. Don't assume.
Draft an outline (sections + frame list, an outline .md) and get approval.
Then build the .tex, compile, clean, open the PDF for review.

For edits to an existing deck: just make the change, recompile, verify.

Must-knows

\documentclass[aspectratio=169]{beamer} + \input{../preamble}. End the .tex with a % Provenance: block.
Compile pdflatex -interaction=nonstopmode -halt-on-error FILE.tex twice, then ./ma/Scripts/python.exe clean_latex.py. Beamer clips overflow silently - eyeball rendered pages or run /beamer-overflow-check.
Skeleton: cold-open hook -> Outline -> \sections each with a [plain] transition slide (popblue title + one motivation line) -> recap + paramgreen "Next:" box. No fixed length; one idea per frame.
Palette / callouts: popblue=theory, armred=data/warnings, paramgreen=params/takeaways, armorange=watch-outs. Boxes: armblue!8=key, armred!8=trap, paramgreen!8=takeaway/Next, armorange!12=watch-out.
Content: English body; mostly straight tone with occasional light touch; predict-first frames where a result is counter-intuitive; a by-hand worked-numbers frame where mechanics are computable; full step-by-step derivations; minimal code (one canonical sklearn snippet max).
Figures: real matplotlib for data, TikZ for schematics; scripts in sibling py_src/, output to sibling fig/, run with the ma venv; no enforced figure palette; attribution line on embedded third-party figures.
Prose: no em-dashes, no curly quotes.

If anything here is ambiguous for the deck at hand, ask before building.

wrap-session

HaykTarkhanyan/python_math_ml_course

Use when a work session is ending - the user says "wrap up", "let's stop here", "commit this", or a lecture/practical was just delivered and its materials need to be linked and logged.

compile-deck

HaykTarkhanyan/python_math_ml_course

Use when compiling or verifying any Beamer/LaTeX deck (.tex) in this repo - after editing a deck, before committing one, or when a PDF looks wrong (blank Outline frame, stale page counts like 8/7, clipped or missing content). Runs the full compile -> verify -> clean -> review loop.

make-figures

HaykTarkhanyan/python_math_ml_course

Use when a slide deck needs generated figures (matplotlib PDFs), when creating or editing a figure script under ml/**/py_src/, or when replacing a hand-drawn TikZ sketch or third-party image with a real generated figure.

google-forms-builder

HaykTarkhanyan/python_math_ml_course

Use when the user wants to create, build, generate, or populate a Google Form or quiz - especially from existing questions, a CSV, a spreadsheet, or a question bank - or says things like "turn these into a Google Form", "make a quiz form", "Google Forms from CSV", or wants an auto-graded quiz with answer keys, points, and per-answer feedback. Also use when adding many questions by clicking through the Google Forms UI would be slow or error-prone. Covers multiple-choice quizzes, sections, and bilingual forms.
