Academic Presentation Skill

Purpose

Create academic presentations from papers, posters, or review materials using deterministic conference and literature-review presets. Use when the user asks to make slides, prepare a talk, build a Beamer deck, or turn review content into a presentation.

Keep this SKILL.md as a concise routing and execution entrypoint. Do not load long examples, command catalogs, detailed checklists, or edge-case policy until the current task needs them.

Workflow

1. Confirm the user request matches this skill's frontmatter description.
2. Bind the concrete target: source file, artifact, repo, device, document, dataset, or user-facing deliverable.
3. Use the smallest relevant workflow from this entrypoint first.
4. Before choosing a presentation preset, building Beamer/PPTX content, composing figures, embedding video, cleaning deck directories, or declaring the rendered deck ready, read references/entrypoint-details.md.
5. Preserve local owner boundaries: route to a narrower skill or repo-specific workflow when the detailed reference indicates a more specific owner.

Validation

• Use the skill-specific validation or acceptance checks from the detailed reference before declaring completion.
