What it does

Conference Talk Proposal is an agent skill from mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills. Write a conference talk proposal / CFP submission for a tech or developer conference. Use when asked to submit to a CFP, propose a talk, or write a session abstract. Produces a compelling title, abstract, audience takeaways, an outline, and the speaker pitch — tuned to what selection committees actually look for.

Its SKILL.md is about 800 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: 1255 professional Agent Skills for Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor & Codex — PRDs, postmortems, leases, medical bills, layoffs, go-bags, new countries. Plain markdown, MIT, in… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Asked to submit to a CFP
  • Write a session abstract

Example prompts

  • “/conference-talk-proposal”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1cbf1f0. 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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    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

Conference Talk Proposal loads about 798 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 85 tokens; SKILL.md has 417 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~85
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~798

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.

description
Write a conference talk proposal / CFP submission for a tech or developer conference. Use when asked to submit to a CFP, propose a talk, or write a session abstract. Produces a compelling title, abstract, audience takeaways, an outline, and the speaker pitch — tuned to what selection committees actually look for.

Conference Talk Proposal Skill

CFP committees skim dozens of submissions; they pick the ones with a clear, specific promise and an obvious takeaway. This skill turns a talk idea into a submission that gets accepted — a sharp title, an abstract that hooks then delivers, concrete audience takeaways, a credible outline, and the "why me, why this" pitch.

Required Inputs

Ask for these only if they aren't already provided:

  • The topic & core message — what the talk is about and the one thing people leave with.
  • Target audience & level — who it's for (beginners, senior backend, SREs…) and assumed knowledge.
  • The story / evidence — the real experience, project, data, or failure behind it.
  • Format & length — talk type and duration (lightning / 30 / 45 min, workshop).
  • Speaker background (optional) — relevant experience, for the bio/pitch.

Output Format

Talk proposal

Title options (3) — specific and intriguing; promise a concrete payoff, avoid vague nouns.

Abstract (the public blurb, ~150 words) — hook with the problem/tension, state what the talk covers, and end on what the audience walks away able to do. Written to make an attendee choose this session.

Audience takeaways (3–5) — concrete, action-oriented ("you'll be able to…"), not topics.

Who this is for — audience and level, stated plainly.

Outline — the talk's arc with rough timings (setup → core content/sections → demo → takeaways/Q&A), so the committee sees it's a real, well-paced talk.

Notes to organizers (private pitch) — why this talk, why now, why you're the person to give it; any demo/AV needs.

Speaker bio — 2–3 sentences, credibility without bragging.

Quality Checks

  • The title makes a specific promise; the abstract hooks then says what's covered
  • Takeaways are concrete and action-oriented, not a list of topics
  • Audience and level are explicit, and the content matches them
  • The outline shows a real arc with timings that fit the slot
  • The private pitch answers "why this / why now / why you"

Anti-Patterns

  • Do not write a vague abstract that could describe any talk — be specific about the payoff
  • Do not list topics as "takeaways" — say what the attendee will be able to do
  • Do not oversell a talk you can't deliver in the time — match scope to the slot
  • Do not ignore audience level — a mismatched talk gets rejected or bombs
  • Do not forget the committee's view — give them the private "why this matters now" pitch

Based On

Conference CFP practice (clear promise, concrete takeaways, paced outline, the committee's selection lens).

Example Trigger Phrases

  • "Submit a talk to this CFP."
  • "Propose a talk."
  • "Write a session abstract."
  • "Help me get accepted at this conference."
