Deck builder

Not a feature of this app — a prompt. Claude has read your whole strategy by this point, so it is better placed to build the deck than we would be.

The printable canvas and the handoff into Claude Code are part of a paid plan. See what a plan includes. It needs the Claude desktop app on this machine, and your team and the prompt library already installed in that project — we cannot see your disk, so open it there.

What it is

Not a framework — a delivery step. It turns a settled strategy into slides by asking Claude, which by this point has read every output in your project, to structure the argument for a specific audience and time slot. The discipline is in the headline convention and in resisting the urge to build slides before the argument is finished.

Assertion headlines
Every slide title states a claim, not a topic. "Q3 Performance" says nothing; "We lost share in trade because our lead time doubled" is a headline. Read the titles alone and you should get the whole argument.
Audience and duration
Twelve minutes to a board is a different deck from an hour with the leadership team — it changes slide count, depth, and what can be assumed.
Brand inputs
Colours, fonts, logo placement, light or dark. It cannot guess these, and a generic deck looks generic.
The markdown handoff
One file out, which you put through your own deck tool. The last stretch — visual judgment — stays with you.
The mistake people makeIf you find yourself using the deck to work out what you think, stop and go back to the Choose stage. Slides are very good at hiding an unfinished argument behind a confident heading.
What it’s forThe strategy is written and you need it as slides, in a specific house style.
What it’s not forThe argument is not settled. Slides let you hide gaps behind headings.

How you run it

  1. Settle the argument firstA deck is a delivery mechanism, not a thinking tool. If the strategy is not decided, slides will paper over it.
  2. Tell it the audience and the timeTwelve minutes to a board is a different deck from an hour with the leadership team.
  3. Ask for assertion headlines"Q3 Performance" says nothing. "We lost share in trade because our lead time doubled" is a headline.
  4. Give it your brandColours, fonts, logo placement, light or dark. It cannot guess, and generic decks look generic.
  5. Take the markdown and finish it yourselfThe last 20% — the visual judgment — is still yours.

The prompt

Two ways to run it

Run this tool in your own Claude

The short prompt starts your partner against the library on your disk. The long one carries everything with it and needs nothing installed.

🔒 Prompt locked

Everything above is free — what this tool is, what it is for, what it is not for, and how to run it as a workshop. Three tool prompts a month are free with an account; beyond three, and for the printable canvas, it is the paid part.
