Deck Design Pack

Six original 16:9 presentation template systems for ppt-master-compatible workspaces — the SVG-authoring pipeline that turns source documents into natively editable PowerPoint decks.

Each template ships 10 hand-authored SVG page prototypes plus a full design specification, and compiles to a real PowerPoint Master/Layout structure — not a flattened picture deck.

6 templates · 60 SVG prototypes · 6 identity-only brand presets
0 errors / 0 warnings on the structural checker
all six verified end to end: generated deck → export → verify_deck PASS

The six

Template	Theme	Primary	Signature move	Best for
Midnight Panel	dark	#5E6AD2	Surface stepping instead of shadow; one lavender signal per page	Product roadmaps, sprint reviews, engineering briefings
Polarity Mono	light ↔ dark	#171717	Chapter breaks are a polarity inversion, not a divider	Tech talks, demo days, developer conferences
Gradient Mesh Fintech	light	#533AFD	Mesh gradient over thin 300-weight display type	Partner proposals, fintech IR, product economics
Warm Document	warm light	#5645D4	1px outline grammar, five pastel tint cards	Handbooks, onboarding, team wiki decks
Open Road	light + carbon	#3E6AE1	One page, one message; full-bleed photography	Product launches, brand keynotes, vision decks
Signal Green	black / white	#76B900	12×12 corner-square marker; angular 2px geometry	AI/GPU briefings, benchmarks, developer sessions

Every template also ships an identity-only brand preset under brands/ — the same colours, typography, voice, and icon rules with no page roster, for when you want the look but your own page structure.

Install

git clone https://github.com/humanist96/deck-design-pack.git
cd deck-design-pack
python3 install.py /path/to/your/ppt-master-workspace

That copies the decks and brand presets into the workspace template library and writes both discovery indexes. Then open the workspace in your agent and ask for a deck — the template appears as a card at the Strategist confirmation step.

python3 install.py <workspace> --only midnight-panel polarity   # subset
python3 install.py <workspace> --force                          # replace existing ids
python3 install.py <workspace> --dry-run                        # show the plan

The installer has no dependencies beyond the standard library (it uses PyYAML if present). Details and manual steps: docs/install.md.

Why an installer instead of the workspace registrar? The stock register_template.py rebuilds each index entry from scratch and drops the defaults block the Confirm UI reads to cascade a deck's mode / visual style / delivery purpose. install.py sources that block from each template's own frontmatter, so the anchors survive any number of index rebuilds.

All six share the same 10-page spine so the pack reads as one system. Page 04 is where each template's identity shows — a product panel, a polarity flip, a gradient statement, a tint-card stack, a full-bleed hero, a black hero.

Each design_spec.md locks the things that make a deck look designed rather than assembled: an exhaustive colour list (nothing outside it may appear in a generated SVG), a native body-size baseline that overrides the generic default, a chart grammar, and an anti-pattern checklist written to be rejected at authoring time.

Structural contract

These are not decorative SVGs. Each page declares the PowerPoint structure it compiles to:

• root Master/Layout identity (data-pptx-master, data-pptx-layout)
• fixed framing as Layout atoms (data-pptx-layer="layout")
• content slots as bounded placeholders with exactly one carrier
• <!-- chart-plot-area: … --> markers on chart pages

A 10-page template compiles to 1 Master and 9 Layouts — the two chart pages share one chart_linear layout because their fixed framing and slot contract are identical.

Verified per template:

Gate	Result
svg_quality_checker --template-mode	0 errors, 0 warnings
template_preview_pptx.py read-back	10 slides · 1 master · 9 layouts
End-to-end deck generation (strict adherence)	0 errors, 0 warnings · verify_deck PASS
Exported package	1 master · layout picker names preserved · placeholders bound

All six were verified end to end, not just structurally: a 7-page deck was generated from each template under strict adherence — cover, agenda, section, the signature page, metrics, a chart with real data, and the closing — and each exported package opens with the template's own layout names in the PowerPoint picker.

Authoring details: docs/authoring.md.

Typography

Everything is locked to Pretendard (SIL OFL), supplied by the workspace. Hierarchy comes from weight span, letter-spacing, and size ramp — never from switching families.

Latin letter-spacing values in each spec are the reference; Korean-dominant runs relax them by ×0.5, because Korean glyph widths are uniform and the same negative tracking closes the letterforms up.

PPTX does not embed fonts. Decks exported from these templates need Pretendard installed wherever they are opened.
