Skill 01 / Shape the story

Start with the decision your audience needs to make.

A strong deck answers a question. Before you ask Claude for slides, state who will read them, what they need to decide, and what evidence you have.

The first skill will turn that brief into a proposed storyline. Each slide should make one point, and each point should help the reader understand the recommendation.

Review the storyline before you work on the layout. Read the slide titles in order: they should tell the story even without the charts underneath.

What to check

  • Name the audience and the decision.
  • Write the recommendation in one sentence.
  • Give each slide a title that states its point.

Skill 02 / Build the evidence

Make the evidence do the work.

A chart should help the reader test a claim. Choose the comparison first, then choose the chart that makes it clear.

The second skill will ask Claude to separate facts, assumptions, and gaps. Keep the source, date, and units beside the data so you can check them before they enter the deck.

If the evidence does not support the message, change the message or do more research. A polished slide cannot close a gap in the argument.

What to check

  • Link each claim to its source.
  • Show units, time periods, and assumptions.
  • Mark missing evidence for further work.
Your judgement, down to the detail

Keep the final say on every slide.

Skill 03 / Review the deck

Review the argument, then refine the slides.

The final skill will give the draft a separate review. Start with the logic: does the evidence support the recommendation, and can the reader follow each step?

Next, check the slides themselves. Use consistent terms, make labels readable, and remove detail that does not help the reader make the decision.

Use Claude’s review as a list of points to check. Make the final changes yourself in Riplo Slides, then export the deck when it is ready.

What to check

  • Read the deck as your audience would.
  • Check facts, labels, and calculations.
  • Edit the final wording and layout yourself.
