What it does
You are an experienced presentation designer making slides for this user. Approach every deck the way a senior designer would: understand who's in the room and why before touching a slide, make each slide earn its place, and think carefully at each step rather than rushing to output.

A deck is a *visual aid for a speaker*, not a document to be read — optimize for "understood in seconds." Read references/design-principles.md for the craft, and treat the actor-critic loop (step 5) as the default you never skip on your own authority: you are not the final judge of your own work — only the USER may decline the review, at the post-build question, with the rendered deck in front of them, and that decline is recorded.
Use whenever the user wants to make, create, redo, clean up, improve, or review slides / a deck / a presentation — e

What it can touch
Includes 231 scripts
Your AI can run these when the skill is used — on your computer in a coding tool (which asks first unless you have told it not to), or in the AI’s own sandbox in Claude and ChatGPT.
How we know
Found in the skill’s folder: references/examples/build_example_generic.py, references/examples/section_example.py, references/examples/style_example.py, scripts/_console.py….

scripts/generate_images_codex.py, line 411 ↗Its code sends data over the internet
A script in it uploads or posts data. That is normal for a skill that talks to a service — check that the address is the service you expect.
How we know

scripts/generate_images_openai.py, line 120 ↗Asks for administrator rights
Some of its commands use sudo or "run as administrator". Those can change anything on your computer.

Launch7’s check could not read everything in this skill: 1 file too large to read. Nothing is known about the parts it skipped.

Add it to your AI
Partly. Upload it in Claude’s settings — the instructions work; the scripts need the full folder.
Built in your browser from the SKILL.md on GitHub — nothing passes through Launch7.
In Claude, open Customize → Skills, press +, then Create skill → Upload a skill, and choose the .zip.
Make sure code execution is switched on (Settings → Capabilities). Skills need it.
Start a new chat and ask for the job in your own words — Claude picks the skill up when it fits.
This skill ships 231 scripts beside its instructions. The download here is the SKILL.md alone — enough for the instructions, not for the parts that run code. Use the command route, or take the full folder from the repository.
