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.

Docs & OfficeIntermediate19917AI score 9/10Last updated: Aug 8, 2026

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.md with 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

  1. 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.
  2. Only a quarterly metrics CSV → it restructures into summary → metrics → patterns → actions and cites verified numbers.
  3. Demo-day pitch prep → if the audience likely doesn't care yet, it opens with a human story instead of a statistic.

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.

  1. Open your terminal.
  2. Clone the repo: git clone https://github.com/hiyeshu/codeck.git
  3. Copy the whole skills folder: mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r codeck/skills/* ~/.claude/skills/
    • Copying only codeck-outline will fail, since it calls shared scripts such as scripts/resolve-dirs.sh.
  4. Restart Claude Code.
  5. Run Claude Code from the folder that holds your presentation materials, then say "outline my slides" or run /codeck.
  6. Find the result at ~/.codeck/projects/<folder-name>/deck.md, review it, and pass it on to the design step.
