Fed it a plain outline with no images: the skill-following pass correctly refused to invent a hero image (the baseline run hallucinated one), and cleanly split multi-sentence explanatory prose into Deckset speaker notes with the `^` prefix while leaving bullets untouched.

Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works

  • Installs cleanly 5/5
  • Triggers reliably 5/5
  • Output vs. baseline 9/10
  • Docs & honesty 5/5

What Markdown Slides does

Converts a markdown outline or document into a Deckset- or Marp-compatible slide deck, handling image positioning tags, speaker-note extraction, and header hierarchy. Triggers when a user asks to create slides or a presentation, requests a document-to-slide conversion, or mentions Deckset or Marp by name.

How to install Markdown Slides
