What it does

Gslides Epigraphs is an agent skill from lselector/seminar. Extract the text of the live Google Slides seminar deck and write 30 candidate epigraphs for the week (short, energetic, funny, elegant) into epigraphs.txt in the current directory, for the author to pick one. Use when asked for epigraphs, taglines, a motto or one-liners for this week's deck, or to extract the text of the deck.

Its SKILL.md is about 710 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Documents & Office, covering Cloud office suites and Positioning and messaging. It works with Google Slides.

When your agent uses it

  • Asked for epigraphs
  • One-liners for this weeks deck
  • Extract the text of the deck

Example prompts

  • “/gslides-epigraphs”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. extract the text
  2. find the week
  3. write 30 epigraphs
  4. write the file
  5. report

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 83e35cf. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python3

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Gslides Epigraphs loads about 712 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 87 tokens; SKILL.md has 401 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~87
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~712

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 401 words (~712 tokens).

“Run from work/. The rules are in work/README.md. Without a date the step works on this week's deck: on a Friday that is today's until 3 pm US Eastern (the seminar is over), then next week's. Say which deck the…”
