deck
The `/octo:deck` command generates PowerPoint presentations from user briefs through a structured pipeline of clarification, optional research, outline approval, and final rendering. Use it when you need to quickly create pitch decks, project updates, technical presentations, or leadership briefs without manually designing slides.

# Deck - Slide Deck Generator
**Your first output line MUST be:** `🐙 Octopus Deck Generator`
## Instructions
Read and follow the full skill instructions from:
`${HOME}/.claude-octopus/plugin/.claude/skills/skill-deck/SKILL.md`
## Quick Usage
Just describe what you need:
```
"Create a pitch deck for our Series A"
"Build a 10-slide project update for leadership"
"Make a technical presentation about our API architecture"
```
## Pipeline
1. **Brief** — Clarify audience, slide count, and tone
2. **Research** — Optional context gathering (or bring your own content)
3. **Outline** — Slide-by-slide structure for your approval
4. **PPTX** — Rendered PowerPoint file via document-skills
## Tips
- Provide as much context upfront to skip clarification questions
- Run `/octo:discover [topic]` first for research-heavy presentations
- The outline step lets you reshape the deck before rendering
- Works best with `document-skills` plugin installed
