Slideshow Producer
Use When
The user wants TikTok slideshow or Instagram carousel production from vibe,
local images, slide prompts, reviewable manifest JSON, generated images, and
final text overlays.
Use after script/hook strategy is clear enough to plan slides. This skill owns
slide manifest, preview/review, generation orchestration, and compositing.
Do Not Use When
The task belongs to ideation, QA, or another released skill listed in the handoff section.
Required inputs are missing and guessing would change the result.
Execution Boundary
Do not write hook variants from scratch, call image providers directly, create
persona packs, or replace final creative QA.
Route slides by reference state: image-gpt-image-2-text for slides without
references, image-gpt-image-2-edit for slides with references.
Slideshow aspect is a creative choice passed as --aspect-ratio (TikTok
9:16; Instagram carousel 4:5 unless the user asks otherwise). The other
image defaults (quality, resolution, output format) are owned by the image
create verb — discover them via postplus media schema --json; do not restate
hosted enums here.
Manifest And Routing
The slide manifest is the routing source of truth.
imageSource: "local" uses localImagePath as the final image and must not
call generation.
imageSource: "generate" with no reference paths/URLs must use
image-gpt-image-2-text.
imageSource: "generate" with any reference path/URL must use
image-gpt-image-2-edit.
Never send reference-backed slides through text-to-image. Fix the manifest
before generation if routing is inconsistent.
Source And Prompt
Ask for platform, slideshow count, vibe, source basis, output folder, and any
local images. Classify local images as final slide images or generation
references.
Prompts should be core scene plus vibe in two or three sentences. Add concrete
product, environment, emotion, and prop details when they matter; avoid long
negative-constraint walls.
Save a local manifest before generation. For three or more slideshows, split
manifest drafting across parallel sub-agents, then the main agent reviews the
collected manifests.
Review And Handoff
Before generation, ask for explicit approval: number of slides, model, quality,
resolution, and counts of text-to-image versus reference edits.
After compositing, hand off final image paths, updated manifest, and any
creative-qa or publishing.
Stop Conditions
Stop when required user intent, source evidence, or owned input artifacts are
missing and guessing would change the result.
If an owned CLI or script command fails, report the exact error and stop. Do
not bypass the failure with metadata-only answers, readiness probing, local
payload rewrites, fallback providers, or unpublished tools.
Public Command Boundary
Choose the smallest matching command or workflow from the user input and run
it directly.
Readiness diagnostics: postplus doctor --skill slideshow-producer.
If an owned CLI or script command fails, report the exact error and stop. Do
not bypass the failure with metadata-only answers, readiness probing, local
payload rewrites, fallback providers, or unpublished tools.
Use postplus media schema --json only when constructing or repairing an unknown request shape.
Generate each slide through the shared image create verb (owned by image-batch-runner), attributing the run to this skill: postplus media create image-gpt-image-2-text --skill slideshow-producer --prompt '<scene + vibe>' --aspect-ratio <ratio> --output <result.json>. For reference-backed slides use image-gpt-image-2-edit with one or more --reference-image <url>. Do not call provider APIs directly.
If the CLI returns a quote-confirmation challenge, run postplus quote confirm --json --challenge-file <challenge.json> and retry with the returned token.
