ia-presenterlisted

Creates high-quality, well-designed presentations for iA Presenter (Mac app). Generates complete Markdown files with proper iA Presenter syntax: slide structure, speaker notes separated from slide content, layout control through content organization, images, tables, charts, and theme recommendations. Use this skill whenever the user wants to create a presentation, build a deck, structure a talk, or create slides — even if they don't say "iA Presenter" explicitly but are working on a .md presentation file. Also trigger when the user pastes an outline, essay, or document and asks to "turn this into slides" or "make a presentation from this". This skill knows the full iA Presenter syntax and best practices, so always use it rather than writing generic markdown.

# iA Presenter Skill iA Presenter is a Mac presentation app that uses Markdown files (`.md`). The core philosophy: **write your story first, then let iA Presenter render it as slides**. Speaker notes and slide content live in the same file but are distinguished by indentation. ## Workflow ### Step 1 — Gather Requirements Ask or infer before writing. What you need: - **Topic and goal** — What is the presentation about? Inform, persuade, pitch, teach? - **Audience** — Technical, executive, general public? - **Duration** — How long? (~1.5–2 min/slide is typical) - **Content** — Outline, draft, or just a topic? - **Tone** — Formal, casual, technical? - **Theme preference** — See theme guide in `references/themes.md` If the user provides content, adapt it. If they give only a topic, generate the full narrative. ### Step 2 — Structure the Narrative Arc Every presentation follows a shape: 1. **Cover** — Title, subtitle, presenter name 2. **Hook** — First slide surprises or provokes a question; never start with an agenda 3. **Setup** — Establish the problem, situation, or context 4. **Body** — 3–5 main points; each point gets 2–4 slides 5. **Resolution** — What the audience should now believe or understand 6. **Call to action** — Specific, concrete next step Agenda slides are optional; only include for presentations over 20 slides. ### Step 3 — Write the Markdown See the complete syntax reference in `references/syntax.md`. Core rules: - Slides are separated by `---` - **
