| Signal | academic-slides Use this skill for creating or refining an academic slide deck and the talk built around it: structuring a conference talk, thesis defense, lab meeting, or paper-to-slides deck; deciding the narrative arc and slide breakdown; improving slide design and visual hierarchy; planning rehearsal, timing, Q&A, and backup slides; or generating the .pptx. Reach for it when the user is shaping the presentation itself. Do not use for writing the paper, producing standalone speaker notes/scripts/transcripts, making posters, creating isolated figures/charts outside a slide deck, or building non-academic presentations. | Canvas Design Create original visual art, posters, PNG assets, and PDF documents through a clear design philosophy. | Frontend Design Guidance for distinctive, intentional UI design, typography, visual direction, and non-template-like product interfaces. |
