codeck Outline (Presentation Structure Editor)
An editor-role skill that reads your local materials, asks the few questions that matter, and writes deck.md with the full story arc and slide-by-slide outline.

What it does
- Scans your current project folder for materials (docs, images, PDFs, CSVs, code) and classifies each asset as inline, poster, or extract.
- Locks core message, audience scene, duration, and language, then derives slide count from duration (15 min ≈ 10 slides, 30 min ≈ 20, 45 min ≈ 25–30) instead of asking.
- Picks a narrative arc (problem-driven, demo-driven, data report, teaching) and specifies each slide's purpose, rhythm, and key points.
- Sharpens slide titles using five strategies plus a three-step quality check, and searches the web to back thin claims rather than fabricating numbers.
- Produces a single canonical
deck.mdwith a Decision Log and asset manifest, then hands off to the @design lane.
Who it's for
- Anyone who has piles of raw material but no clear presentation flow.
- PMs, engineers, and researchers who keep writing flat slide titles.
- Users of the codeck plugin who want the full pipeline: outline → design → review → speaker notes.
Examples
- A repo full of spec docs and an architecture diagram → ask "outline these slides" and get a 20-slide, 30-minute structure with the diagram assigned to a specific slide.
- Only a quarterly metrics CSV → it restructures into summary → metrics → patterns → actions and cites verified numbers.
- Demo-day pitch prep → if the audience likely doesn't care yet, it opens with a human story instead of a statistic.

Install in Claude Code
Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code
Install the skill I found on Claude Skill Mart. Copy the skills/codeck-outline folder from the GitHub repo hiyeshu/codeck into my ~/.claude/skills/codeck-outline/. When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.
Install with a command instead
git clone https://github.com/hiyeshu/codeck.git && cp -r codeck/skills/* ~/.claude/skills/⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.
- Open your terminal.
- Clone the repo:
git clone https://github.com/hiyeshu/codeck.git - Copy the whole skills folder:
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r codeck/skills/* ~/.claude/skills/- Copying only
codeck-outlinewill fail, since it calls shared scripts such asscripts/resolve-dirs.sh.
- Copying only
- Restart Claude Code.
- Run Claude Code from the folder that holds your presentation materials, then say "outline my slides" or run
/codeck. - Find the result at
~/.codeck/projects/<folder-name>/deck.md, review it, and pass it on to the design step.
