Orient
Read the analysis project and identify the available results, figures, and data-loading interfaces.
Quarto layouts for scientific presentations
Match each scientific claim with an appropriate slide layout.
The template provides predefined layouts, reproducible figure workflows, and rendering checks for academic presentations.

Select a layout
Use the claim and its supporting evidence to select the composition.
Identify the figure, image, table, or explanation that supports the slide title, then choose a layout that gives it sufficient space.
Slide layout catalogue
Each layout is shown with a rendered example and its Quarto source.
The displayed name and code refer to the same composition, so a layout can be requested unambiguously.
Features and modifiers
Rendering features are documented separately from slide layouts.
These examples cover fragments, emphasis, background images, custom figure fonts, and table density. They modify a layout rather than replace one.
Reproducible workflow
Presentation inputs can remain connected to the analysis project.
The template separates scientific computation from presentation-specific composition while allowing displayed results to be regenerated.
Plan
Agree on the audience, purpose, sequence of claims, supporting evidence, and output name.
Build
Generate displayed values and figures from stable project-relative inputs.
Review
Render the presentation, inspect every slide, correct layout problems, and check the final file size.
Agent-assisted
Begin with the analysis context and an agreed slide plan.
Provide the template URL, analysis project, and destination folder. The agent reviews the project, drafts the slide plan, and waits for approval before building the presentation.
Use https://github.com/DeepWaterIMR/presentation-template to start a presentation in docs/presentation. Review the analysis first, prepare slide-plan.md, and wait for approval before building.Manual install
Install the template into an existing project.
Rscript install_into_project.R \
--target "/path/to/project"The default destination is docs/presentation/. Existing project-level agent guidance is not overwritten.
Focused agent skills
Task-specific procedures are separated from stable presentation rules.
This limits automatic routing to the procedures relevant to creating, reviewing, or maintaining a presentation.
make-presentationOrient to a scientific project, agree on the slide plan, and build the presentation from rerenderable inputs.
review-presentationRender an existing presentation, inspect every slide, correct visual problems, and verify delivery files.
maintain-presentation-templateAdd layouts, update the catalogue and learning hub, and keep installer and validation checks aligned.
