Usage Guidance
This skill appears to do what it says: it reads a supplied article (or file), runs the bundled Python init script to create a project folder, and writes staged artifact files plus a single self-contained HTML output. Before installing/using: ensure a Python (python or python3) interpreter is available (the metadata doesn't list it but the script requires it); be aware the skill will create a projects/ folder under the current working directory unless you pass a different absolute path; review the generated index.html before sharing publicly because the output may reference external CDN-hosted assets (fonts, icons, chart libraries) when opened in a browser. If you want to avoid writing files to your environment, run the skill in a sandbox or specify a dedicated project root.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: prose-to-deck
Version: 1.0.3
The prose-to-deck skill is a well-structured tool designed to transform text into HTML presentations. It utilizes a bundled Python script (scripts/init_project.py) to safely initialize project directories and manage state through local markdown files. The instructions in SKILL.md and the reference files are strictly focused on the editorial and design process, incorporating human-in-the-loop (HITL) checkpoints for user approval. All external dependencies are standard, reputable frontend libraries (e.g., Chart.js, Mermaid, Lucide) loaded via common CDNs, and there is no evidence of data exfiltration, malicious execution, or harmful prompt injection.

Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The name/description (prose → HTML deck) match the included instructions and bundled scripts. One small inconsistency: the metadata declares no required binaries, but runtime instructions call the bundled init script via `python` (or `python3`) — the skill legitimately needs a Python runtime, so the declared 'required binaries' should ideally include python/python3.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md limits actions to reading the provided source, running the local init script to create a project under a project root, writing staged artifact files, and following explicit HITL checkpoints. It does not instruct reading unrelated system files, environment variables, or secret stores.
Install Mechanism
No install spec (instruction-only) and the only code shipped is two small local scripts that create folders and touch files. There are no downloads or archive extraction steps. References mention optional CDN URLs for fonts/icons/libs in the generated HTML, which is expected for presentation assets.
Credentials
The skill requires no credentials or environment variables. The only environmental requirement implicit in runtime instructions is a Python interpreter to run scripts — this is proportional to the bundled init script's purpose.
Persistence & Privilege
always:false (not force-included). The skill writes project files under the current working directory (./projects by default) — normal for a generator. It does not request elevated privileges, modify other skills, or persist beyond its own project folder.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install prose-to-deck - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/prose-to-deck - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
