What it does

This skill gives an AI agent a ready-made HTML slide-deck template styled after Windows 95 (gray title bars, pixel fonts, retro decorations). When you ask for a presentation in this style, the agent copies the template, swaps in your own headlines, numbers and images, and adds or removes slides to fit your content. It is a visual template rather than a source of subject expertise, and it is built to keep the nostalgic look consistent. The bundled example is a phishing-awareness training deck, but the look itself is the point.

Great for

  • Creators or marketers who want a playful, nostalgic presentation for retro gaming, Y2K-style brands or tech-history talks
  • Anyone who wants a single self-contained HTML slide file they can open in a browser
  • Designers who want a consistent retro visual system that the agent should not alter

Skip it if

  • Formal or institutional training such as employee security awareness: the skill's own guidance says the Win95 look reads as a costume and lacks institutional credibility
  • Anyone needing a modern, elegant corporate deck, since the style is deliberately dated

Try asking

  • “Make a 10-slide retro Windows 95 styled deck about the history of video game consoles”
  • “Turn my notes on our 90s-themed product launch into an HTML slide deck in this template”
  • “Duplicate the demo layouts to build a 15-slide retro-styled creator portfolio presentation”

    Ask for the task

    No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.

Get better results

  • Give the agent your real headlines, numbers and slide count up front so it can duplicate or drop layouts correctly.
  • Ask for the retro style explicitly; the skill says to keep fonts, palette and decorations intact, so request changes to content rather than styling.
  • The skill's source is MIT-licensed from an upstream repo; keep the included LICENSE file whenever you copy or redistribute the template files.
