Replit Deck

Replit Deck Skill

Produce a single-file horizontal-swipe HTML deck in one of eight Replit-Slides themes. Every theme is a complete visual system — do not mix tokens across themes.

Workflow

Step 0 — Pre-flight (mandatory reads)

1. Read assets/template.html end-to-end. The [data-theme] blocks carry the tokens; the `` at the bottom solves five iframe nav bugs — do not rewrite it.
2. Read references/themes.md → pick one theme that matches the user's brief. If the user already picked a theme via od.inputs.theme, use that.
3. Read references/layouts.md → you'll copy `` blocks from here.
4. Read references/checklist.md → P0 must pass before emit.

Step 1 — Commit to one theme

Write out loud (in the TodoWrite or plan section) which theme and why. Once picked, every slide uses that theme's tokens only. No swapping mid-deck. The `` attribute is the single source of truth.

| Theme | Pick when | |---|---| | helix | SaaS board update, product metrics, neutral modern | | holm | Legal memo, investor pre-read, serious / institutional | | vance | Art portfolio, design catalog, photographer / sculptor | | bevel | Fashion campaign, lookbook, Y2K / editorial attitude | | world-dark | Policy report, finance analysis, premium dark | | world-mint | Lighter companion of world-dark — ESG, wellness finance, sustainability | | atlas | Long-form narrative, chapter deck, museum / archive aesthetic | | bluehouse | Consumer product, real estate, lifestyle, colorful cards |

Step 2 — Plan slide rhythm before writing HTML

Default 6 slides. Write the rhythm BEFORE any HTML, for example (helix, 6 slides):

01  cover           hero + title + subtitle
02  kpi-row-6       6 metrics with ▲/▼ deltas
03  split-insight   left stat + right paragraph
04  chapter-plate   section divider
05  three-up        three parallel columns
06  closing         one bold number or CTA

Show this to the user. Redirecting at this stage is cheap.

Step 3 — Copy seed, bind theme

1. Copy assets/template.html to project root as index.html.
2. Set ">.
3. Replace ``.
4. Delete the placeholder slides in the body (the seed ships with 3 demo slides). Keep the chrome (counter / progress / hint).

Step 4 — Paste layouts, fill real copy

For each planned slide, copy the matching ` from references/layouts.md. Replace every [REPLACE]` with specific copy — never leave placeholders, never use lorem. If a slide feels empty, pick a different layout.

Tag each slide with data-screen-label="01 Cover", "02 Metrics", etc., in presentation order.

Step 5 — Self-check

Run references/checklist.md silently before emit: the P0 theme-lock gate plus the five-dimension 1–5 critique (Philosophy / Hierarchy / Execution / Specificity / Restraint). Any dimension ≤ 3 → re-do before emit.

The P0 theme-lock grep is non-negotiable:

grep -E 'data-theme|style="--' index.html | head

If any style="--accent:..." or theme override appears on individual slides, revert. One theme per deck.

Step 6 — Emit artifact

" type="text/html" title="">

...

One sentence before the artifact. Stop after ``.

Hard rules

• One theme per deck. data-theme set on `` — never override per-slide.
• Numbers are real or absent. No invented metrics. Use — or a grey block as an honest placeholder.
• Display face follows theme. helix/world-dark/world-mint/bluehouse use the sans Display; holm/vance/atlas use the serif Display; bevel uses the Y2K display. Do not swap. (Authoritative source: the --font-display token of each theme in assets/template.html — if this list ever disagrees with the template, the template wins.)
• Accent appears 1–2× per slide max. Never a gradient-spam.
• Never rewrite the nav script. Five iframe bugs it solves are not obvious.
• Keep it one HTML file. Inline all CSS. No external fonts — the system stack in each theme is deliberate.
• data-screen-label on every slide.
• No Replit logo / brand lockup. These are template styles, not a Replit-brand deck.

When to pick replit-deck vs. peer skills

| Skill | Pick when | |---|---| | simple-deck | Plain, single-theme deck bound to the project's DESIGN.md tokens. When the deck should match the host brand, not assert its own. (designSystemRequired: true.) | | magazine-web-ppt | Editorial "magazine × e-ink" aesthetic (WebGL fluid background, serif titles, chapter plates). When the brief asks for a keynote / launch / sharing-style deck and calls out Monocle / WIRED / Kinfolk / Domus. | | replit-deck | The brief explicitly asks for Replit-Slides gallery aesthetic, or needs one of the 8 token-frozen visual identities (SaaS board, editorial memo, gallery catalog, Y2K campaign, policy report, museum chapter, consumer cards). No dependency on DESIGN.md. |

If the user just says "make me a deck" without further guidance, default to simple-deck — it respects their design system. Pick replit-deck only when the brief is explicit about the aesthetic or names a theme.

Scope & provenance

• Eight themes = the full replit.com/slides landing-page gallery at the time of snapshot. Not a curated subset — every theme card currently published on replit.com/slides is represented here (helix, holm, vance, bevel, world-dark, world-mint, atlas, bluehouse). If Replit ships a ninth template, it is not automatically reflected in this skill.
• Snapshot date: 2026-04-29. All hex values were sampled from the actual replit.com/slides PNGs on that date with ImageMagick — no guessed colors, no memory substitutions. See references/themes.md → Contributing a new theme for the exact sampling procedure.
• Maintenance: one-time snapshot, not tracked. Replit Slides is a live product and may drift. This skill does not auto-sync. If you notice Replit has updated colors or added a theme and want it reflected here, open an issue on nexu-io/open-design titled replit-deck: re-sync to replit.com/slides (YYYY-MM-DD) and attach the updated screenshots. There is no designated owner monitoring the upstream.
• No Replit branding. These are gallery-style templates, not a Replit-brand deck. The checklist (P0) forbids inserting a Replit logo or wordmark.

Browser / runtime support

• Target: modern evergreen desktop browsers (Chrome 110+ / Safari 16+ / Firefox 115+) and modern mobile Safari / Chrome.
• Features used: CSS scroll-snap (horizontal), color-mix(), CSS custom properties, text-wrap: balance. All ≥ 93% Baseline.
• Not supported: IE 11, Safari s.id==='replit-deck'), null, 2));"
