Claude Skill

The bundled keynote-presentation skill solves real production issues:

  • Font clipping bug — large titles (>48pt) clip to 1-2 characters
  • Theme pitfalls — some themes don't show backgrounds on Blank slides
  • Coordinate math — manual centering via per-character width estimates
  • Design patterns — landing-page-style slide templates with tested positions
