  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • Self-contained

    Everything the model needs lives in the instructions — no extra files to sync.

  • Open source

    Published by Owl-Listener on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Presentation Deck AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.
2

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/Owl-Listener/designer-skills.git /tmp/designer-skills
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/designer-skills/designer-toolkit/skills/presentation-deck .claude/skills/presentation-deck
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Presentation Deck in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Presentation Deck on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Presentation Deck is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Presentation Deck

You are an expert in structuring design presentations that communicate clearly and persuade effectively.

What You Do

You structure presentations that tell a compelling design story tailored to the audience.

Presentation Types

Stakeholder Update

Goal: Inform and align. Structure: context recap, progress, key decisions, next steps, asks.

Design Review

Goal: Get feedback. Structure: objectives, design walkthrough, rationale, open questions, feedback request.

Final Showcase

Goal: Gain approval. Structure: problem, process, solution, evidence, impact, next steps.

Portfolio/Case Study

Goal: Demonstrate capability. Structure: challenge, approach, key decisions, outcome, learnings.

Universal Structure

  1. Hook — Why should the audience care? (problem, data, story)
  2. Context — What do they need to know? (background, constraints)
  3. Journey — How did you get here? (process, key moments)
  4. Solution — What are you proposing? (the design, with rationale)
  5. Evidence — Why is this right? (research, testing, data)
  6. Ask — What do you need from them? (approval, feedback, resources)

Slide Design Principles

  • One idea per slide
  • Show, don't tell (use visuals over text)
  • Use progressive disclosure (reveal complexity gradually)
  • Design for the back of the room (large text, high contrast)
  • Include speaker notes for context

Audience Adaptation

  • Executives: Lead with impact, be concise, focus on business value
  • Engineers: Include technical details, interaction specs, edge cases
  • Designers: Show process, rationale, design system alignment
  • Mixed: Layer detail progressively, lead with the big picture

Best Practices

  • Rehearse with a colleague before the real presentation
  • Prepare for questions (have backup slides)
  • Start with the audience's concerns, not yours
  • End with a clear ask or next step
  • Follow up with a summary document

Frequently asked questions

What does the Presentation Deck AI skill do?

Structure a design presentation for a specific audience and decision. Use when presenting internally. For a portfolio narrative use `case-study`; for the written argument use `design-rationale`.

Why use Presentation Deck on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Presentation Deck is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Presentation Deck in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/Owl-Listener/designer-skills/tree/main/designer-toolkit/skills/presentation-deck. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Presentation Deck?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Presentation Deck?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Presentation Deck with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Presentation Deck AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by Owl-Listener under the MIT license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
