# Slider
Evidence-first research slide generation for conference talks.
Slider turns an arXiv paper, PDF, title, DOI, or extracted text into a browser-native presentation that is faithful to the paper, visually restrained, and ready to audit before delivery.
## Why Slider
Most paper-to-slide workflows produce generic summaries. Slider is built around a stricter product promise: the deck should explain the paper through evidence, not decoration.
- **Evidence-first planning:** extracts claims, methods, results, limitations, figures, and tables before composing slides.
- **Mandatory visual inclusion:** key paper figures and tables are treated as main-deck content, not optional garnish.
- **Paper-type policy:** architecture, optimization, benchmark, theory, and qualitative papers get different deck policies.
- **Research-grade design:** projector-safe typography, density budgets, anti-AI-slop rules, and stable fullscreen rendering.
- **Self-contained output:** the default artifact is one HTML file that opens directly in a browser.
- **Audit-backed delivery:** static, design, evidence, and browser overflow checks are part of the workflow.
## What You Get
Slider can generate or scaffold:
| Output | Use case |
|:---|:---|
| Built HTML deck | Default deliverable. Single self-contained presentation file. |
| React single-file component | Quick integration into an existing React workflow. |
| React project starter | Multi-file Vite project with presenter controls and a fixed 1200x675 stage. |
| Platform configs | Instructions for Gemini, ChatGPT, Claude, Claude Code, and OpenAI agents. |
## Example Product Surface
The bundled React project starter includes a fixed-stage deck shell, keyboard navigation, progress, overview, speaker notes, fullscreen controls, a linked presenter window, blackout controls, and product-quality CSS without relying on implicit global styling.
```bash
cd assets/react-project-starter
npm install
npm run dev
```
Then open the local Vite URL and use:
- `Left` / `Right` or `Space` for slide navigation.
- `O` for overview.
- `N` for speaker notes.
- `C` for review comments.
- `V` for paper visual asset manager.
- `D` for deck design lock.
- `F` for fullscreen.
- `P` for presenter window.
- `L` for laser pointer.
- `B` / `W` for black or white screen.
- Swipe or wheel for slide navigation.
- `?` for keyboard help.
## Pipeline
Slider follows a deterministic, evidence-backed flow:
1. Ingest paper text or PDF.
2. Extract title, authors, claims, method, experiments, limitations, figures, and tables.
3. Classify paper type.
4. Score and select visual candidates.
5. Export or bind paper visuals.
6. Compile deck design from policy.
7. Generate slide data with density budgets and evidence bindings.
8. Render HTML, React, or a React project.
9. Run verification before delivery.
## Quick Start
Run the core health check:
```bash
python3 scripts/check_skill_health.py
```
Render a deck from prepared slide data:
```bash
python3 scripts/render_slideshow_artifact.py \
--slide-data slide-plan.json \
--mode html \
--output deck.html
```
Render a React project:
```bash
python3 scripts/render_slideshow_artifact.py \
--slide-data slide-plan.json \
--deck-design deck_design.json \
--mode react-project \
--output deck-project
```
Inside a rendered React project:
```bash
npm run export:static
npm run export:pdf
```
Review visual binding coverage:
```bash
python3 scripts/visual_asset_report.py \
--slide-data bound-slide-plan.json \
--visuals scored-visuals.json \
--exports export-manifest.json
```
Validate platform exports:
```bash
python3 scripts/export_platform_configs.py --platform all --validate
```
## Verification
Use the checks that match the artifact you are shipping:
```bash
python3 scripts/check_skill_health.py
python3 scripts/audit_design_comfort.py deck.html
python3 scripts/audit_research_slides.py --slide-data slide-plan.json --paper-type architecture-heavy
python3 scripts/browser_slide_audit.py deck.html
```
The browser audit checks windowed and simulated-fullscreen rendering, fixed-stage overflow, and broken image state.
