presentation-forge

Opinionated framework for building presentations from a text-first spec where the PPTX is just a build artifact. A presentation lives in a folder containing story.md (free-form narrative), slides.yaml (ordered slides with stable slide-ids), images.yaml (consumed by the image-generator skill), theme.yaml (template + brand tokens), and selections.yaml (per-slide chosen image variant). The `forge` CLI scaffolds this folder, validates it, runs image generation, and renders draft.pptx (every variation as alternate slides) plus final.pptx (one image per slide using selections.yaml). Use this skill whenever the user wants to author or iterate on a presentation, especially when they want AI-generated images integrated into a narrative-first workflow. Triggers: "build a deck", "create a presentation", "draft slides about X", "generate a pitch deck", "iterate on my talk". Do NOT use for one-off slide edits in an existing PPTX the user already owns.

Generate batches of photorealistic image variations through Microsoft Foundry, using GPT Image 2 by default and optionally legacy MAI-Image-2 / GPT-image-1.x deployments when explicitly requested. Use this skill when the user wants multiple variations of the same subject, higher-resolution slide-ready imagery, or image-to-image work from a reference picture such as a logo or product mark. Do NOT use for single ad-hoc generations, video, 3D, vector, or text-in-image rendering.
