How to use the Safety Alert Deck agent skill
Updated · written with AI from the project's own documentation and checked against our catalogue data
The Safety Alert Deck skill (deck-safety-alert) teaches an AI agent a specific visual style for slide decks about safety, security, risk and incident topics. After this guide you will know what the skill changes, how to install it, how to ask for a deck in a way that triggers it, and when it is the wrong choice. No prior experience with agent skills is needed.
Quick start
- 1Download the ZIP. Download the deck-safety-alert ZIP from this page and unzip it. It contains SKILL.md and example.html.
- 2Choose an install location. Use ~/.claude/skills/ for all projects, or .claude/skills/ inside one project.
- 3Place the folder. Move the unzipped deck-safety-alert folder into the chosen skills folder. Alternatively, upload it under Settings → Capabilities → Skills in the Claude apps.
- 4Open the example. Open example.html in a browser to see the finished warning-style look.
- 5Ask for a deck. Request a presentation about a safety, security, risk, incident, red-team or policy-as-code topic.
- 6Review and adapt. Check the facts, severity tiers and wording in the generated deck before sharing it.
What the skill makes the agent do
An agent skill is a folder with a SKILL.md file that gives an AI agent extra instructions for a particular kind of task. This one covers presentation slides for safety, risk, incident post-mortems, red-team work and policy-as-code topics. When it applies, the agent builds the deck in a warning-style visual layout rather than a default one.
- Diagonal 45-degree red and black hazard stripes at the top and bottom of slides
- Red strikethrough headings for negative or rejected points
- Green, amber and red tier cards labelled L1, L2 and L3
- Round-dot status alert boxes
- Code blocks styled for policy-as-code YAML, with a red left border and highlighted "bad" keywords
- Red and green checklists and a stacked bar chart for incidents
Install the skill from the ZIP download
Download the deck-safety-alert ZIP from this page and unzip it. The package contains two files: SKILL.md and example.html. Place the unzipped deck-safety-alert folder in one of two locations, depending on how you want to use it.
For a personal setup available across your projects, put it in ~/.claude/skills/. For a single project, put it in that project's .claude/skills/ folder. The skill is then picked up by agents working in that location.
Alternatively, if you use the Claude apps, you can upload the skill under Settings → Capabilities → Skills instead of copying files by hand.
- Personal install: ~/.claude/skills/deck-safety-alert/
- Project install: <your-project>/.claude/skills/deck-safety-alert/
- Claude apps: Settings → Capabilities → Skills, then upload
Trigger the skill with a natural request
You do not need a special command. Describe a deck that fits the skill's purpose and mention the kind of content: safety, security, risk, incident, red team or policy-as-code. The agent uses the skill when the request matches its description.
Be specific about the content. Naming the topic and the audience usually gives a better deck than a generic request.
- "Make a 10-slide incident post-mortem deck for last week's database outage."
- "Create a slide deck presenting our red-team results for the payments API, with L1 to L3 severity tiers."
- "Build a policy-as-code review deck showing the rules we block in CI, with the bad patterns highlighted."
Check the output and adapt it
Open the example.html file included in the package to see the finished look before you ask for a deck. It shows how the stripes, tier cards and alert boxes are meant to appear together.
Review the generated slides for accuracy first. The skill controls the visual style; the facts, severity labels and wording still come from your request and your source material.
- Compare your output against example.html to confirm the style is what you expected
- Check every tier label and incident detail before presenting
Requirements and safety notes
The skill lists no requirements. It does not run scripts and does not use the network, according to its listing. It consists of instructions and an example HTML file.
- Requires: nothing listed
- Runs scripts: no
- Uses network: no
- Read the SKILL.md before installing any skill you have not written yourself, since an agent will follow its instructions.
What people use it for
- Incident post-mortem decks that need a serious visual tone
- Red-team results presented with L1, L2 and L3 severity tiers
- Policy-as-code rule reviews with YAML blocks showing blocked patterns
- A starting template for a warning-style slide design that you adapt by hand
Frequently asked questions
What is the deck-safety-alert skill?
It is an agent skill that teaches an AI agent a warning-style visual design for slides on safety, security, risk and incident topics. It includes hazard stripes, red strikethrough headings, L1/L2/L3 tier cards and policy-as-code code blocks.
How do I install the deck-safety-alert skill?
Unzip the downloaded ZIP and place the deck-safety-alert folder in ~/.claude/skills/ for personal use or in a project's .claude/skills/ folder. In the Claude apps, you can instead upload it under Settings → Capabilities → Skills.
Does the deck-safety-alert skill require anything else?
The listing states no requirements. It does not run scripts and does not use the network.
Is the Safety Alert Deck skill free?
The skill is licensed under Apache-2.0. Check the licence text in the source repository for the terms that apply to your use.
Is this skill suitable for general business or marketing decks?
No. The hazard stripes and alarm-red look will feel out of place in general business or marketing presentations. Pick a different style for those.
Is the design accessible to colour-blind viewers?
Not reliably. The design relies heavily on red, green and amber to convey meaning, so colour-blind viewers may struggle. Avoid it when the deck must be fully accessible.
