How to use the Tech Sharing Deck agent skill
Updated · written with AI from the project's own documentation and checked against our catalogue data
The Tech Sharing Deck skill (deck-tech-sharing) is an agent skill that lets an AI agent turn your talk topic into a 16:9 HTML slide deck. The deck uses GitHub's dark colour scheme, JetBrains Mono type and terminal-style code blocks, and follows a fixed structure with an agenda and a Q&A page. This guide explains what the skill does, how to install it, how to ask for a deck and what to check before you present.
Tech Sharing Decknexu-io/html-anything · Apache-2.0 Download the skill Quick start
- 1Download the ZIP. Get the skill ZIP from the skill's page on this site and unzip it. You should see SKILL.md and example.html.
- 2Choose where to install. Use your personal skills directory for all projects, or a project's .claude/skills/ folder for one project only.
- 3Place or upload the skill. Move the unzipped folder into ~/.claude/skills/ or the project's .claude/skills/ folder, or upload it in the Claude apps under Settings, Capabilities, Skills.
- 4Describe your talk. Ask the agent for a slide deck and give the topic, speaker name, handle, key points and any code to show.
- 5Review the deck. Check the code blocks, replace demo placeholders with terminal screenshots and confirm the cover details before presenting.
What does the Tech Sharing Deck skill make the agent do?
An agent skill is a folder of instructions that an AI agent (such as Claude) reads when it works on a task. This skill tells the agent how to lay out and style a technical presentation. When you ask for a talk deck, the agent follows the template's look and structure.
The skill is a style and layout template. It describes the design and page structure rather than running any tools itself, so the agent produces the deck from its own output.
- Cover page with your topic, speaker name and handle
- Agenda page
- Several content pages that mix code blocks and key points
- Demo page for terminal screenshots
- Q&A page
Install the skill from a ZIP file
Download the skill ZIP from the skill's page on this site, then unzip it. The folder contains SKILL.md and example.html. Where you put the folder depends on how you want to use it.
You can install it for your user account by placing the unzipped folder in your skills directory, or for a single project by placing it in that project's skills directory. You can also upload the skill in the Claude apps instead.
- Personal install: unzip into ~/.claude/skills/
- Project install: unzip into the project's .claude/skills/ folder
- Claude apps: go to Settings, then Capabilities, then Skills, and upload the skill
~/.claude/skills/How do you trigger the skill with a request?
Once the skill is installed, describe the talk you want in plain language and say that you want a slide deck. The skill is meant for engineering internal shares, meetup talks and conference talks, so mention that context if it helps the agent choose this style.
Give the agent the details it needs to fill the cover and content pages: the topic, your name and handle, the main points and any code you want to show.
- Make a 16:9 deck for my 20-minute internal tech share on migrating our services to Postgres. I'm Dana, handle @dana_dev.
- Build a lightning talk deck about rate limiting in Go. Include a code block for the token bucket and a demo page placeholder for a terminal screenshot.
- Turn these notes into a code-first conference deck with an agenda and Q&A page, dark theme.
What should you check in the generated deck?
The skill sets a fixed palette and layout, so review the output before you present. Check that the code blocks match your real code, that the demo page has the screenshots you need, and that the speaker name and handle are correct.
If you need a different look, such as your company's branding or a light theme, this skill is probably the wrong fit. The source describes a fixed GitHub-dark style with JetBrains Mono, so the agent will not adapt the visual design to other brand rules.
- Confirm every code snippet is copied exactly and is current
- Replace demo page placeholders with real terminal screenshots
- Check the speaker name and handle on the cover
Safety notes: scripts and network access
The skill's listed requirements are empty. It does not run scripts and does not use the network, according to the skill's listing. Its only files are SKILL.md, which holds the instructions, and example.html, which is an example deck.
Because it contains no scripts, installing it does not add executable code to your machine. Still, the agent may read any code or notes you paste into the request, so avoid including secrets or private credentials in your talk material.
- Requirements: none listed
- Runs scripts: no
- Uses network: no
Tips for better decks
The skill works best when your request is specific about the structure you want. The layout already includes an agenda, content pages, a demo page and Q&A, so you only need to supply the content for each page.
Keep code blocks short enough to read on a projector. The skill's style is code-first, so a few focused snippets usually work better than long listings.
- Give the talk length and audience so the content fits the time available
- Paste the exact code you want on each page rather than a description
- Open example.html first to see the look before you request your own deck
What people use it for
- Internal engineering share on a migration, architecture change or incident review
- Lightning talk at a meetup with a few code blocks and a short demo
- Conference talk with a code-first look and a terminal screenshot page
- Quick dark-theme deck for a team that wants a consistent engineering style
Frequently asked questions
How do I install the Tech Sharing Deck skill?
Download the skill ZIP from this site and unzip it into ~/.claude/skills/ for personal use, or into a project's .claude/skills/ folder for one project. You can also upload it in the Claude apps under Settings, Capabilities, Skills.
Is the Tech Sharing Deck skill free?
The skill is licensed under Apache-2.0. The source does not list a price, so check the licence terms on the skill's page for how you may use it.
What does the skill require?
The skill lists no requirements. It does not run scripts and does not use the network, according to its listing.
Can I use this skill for a corporate presentation with brand colours?
Probably not. The skill uses a fixed GitHub-dark palette with JetBrains Mono type, so it may not match corporate branding. A brand-driven deck is a better fit for a different template or a manual design.
What slides does the deck include?
The fixed structure has a cover with topic, speaker and handle, an agenda page, several content pages mixing code and key points, a demo page for terminal screenshots, and a Q&A page.
Why did the agent ignore my request for a light theme?
The skill prescribes a specific dark palette and layout, so it is not designed for light themes or heavy custom visuals. Use a different template if you need those.

Our verdict
This skill suits engineers preparing an internal tech share, lightning talk or meetup talk who want a quick, consistent dark code-first deck. It is a poor fit for non-technical or brand-driven presentations, or for talks that need a light theme or custom visuals, because the look and layout are fixed.
