Sections in SKILL.md
- QA (Required)
- Visual QA
- Converting to Images
Limitations to know about
- The skill file marks QA as required and describes rendering slides to images for a visual check. That check still needs your eyes: a clean render does not confirm that the content is right.
- The skill reads and edits .pptx and .potx files. It says nothing about Keynote or Google Slides.
Also: Inspect every rendered slide for clipping and layout. A generated deck is not evidence that its claims are accurate.
When it is not the right fit
- You need a polished agency finish; generated decks still need a human visual review.
- The deck will present facts nobody has verified, because the skill does not check claims.
A small task to start with
This is our suggested evaluation prompt, not a tested result or an installation command.
Build a six-slide project briefing from these notes. Keep the risks and open questions visible.
Use non-sensitive sample data first. Compare the answer with the original inputs and record what needed correction before expanding the workflow.
Before you rely on it
- Specify the audience, the decision you need and a slide limit before asking for a deck.
- Supply the facts yourself and ask Claude to mark anything it inferred.
- Review every slide image for clipped text, unreadable charts and unsupported claims.
Where to get started
- Read the upstream skill source, dependencies and license.
- In Claude, check Customize for the relevant skill or plugin. Follow the current official installation guide rather than guessing a Duet command.
- Verify availability in your own environment and run a small, reversible task.
