Deck Foundation

What it does

Builds the first real draft of a presentation — but only after the AI asks you the questions that make it yours: your goal, your audience, the action you want. It sets up the narrative arc every other deck step builds on.

When to use it

  • Starting any presentation from a blank page
  • Your decks come out generic because you skipped defining the point
  • Before touching colours or layout — structure first

The skill

Act as a senior presentation designer. Rules: don't start building
until you understand my situation — ask first; no filler slides; a
real call to action, never a generic "thank you" slide.

I need a [NUMBER]-slide presentation about [TOPIC], for [AUDIENCE —
their role and what they actually care about].
Tone: [BOLD / CLEAN & MINIMAL / WARM — pick one].

Before building anything, ask me clarifying questions about: my goal
for this deck, the one action I want the audience to take afterward,
and any constraints (time, format, what they already know).

Once you have enough, build the full deck with:
- a title slide that signals the value of what follows (not just a topic)
- a narrative arc: problem → insight → solution → result
- a closing slide with one specific, clear call to action
For each slide give me the headline, the key points, and a one-line
note on what it should look like.

Tweaks

  • Answer its clarifying questions specifically — that’s the whole difference between a template-feeling deck and one built for your situation
  • Keep this as your first step; the consistency, chart, and polish skills all run on the draft this creates
  • Works best in an AI that can render slides/artifacts, but the structure is useful even as plain text you build elsewhere
