What it does

Carousel Styles is an agent skill from nestyme/awesome-prompts. Design photo-carousel slides by cloning proven Pinterest/TikTok visual languages instead of inventing layouts. Trigger when the user wants carousel/pin designs, says a carousel "looks too plain/AI", drops a design reference to adapt, or asks for design variations of an existing carousel. Ships 10 reusable visual systems (notebook, statement, moodboard, scan, journal, lookbook, recipe card, magazine cover, iMessage, tweet) as PIL recipes, plus the hard rules that keep generated slides believable.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.6k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `reference.md`).

It sits in Media & Creative, covering Infographics, Slides and decks and Social media posts. It works with Pinterest and TikTok.

When your agent uses it

  • The user wants carousel/pin designs
  • Says a carousel looks too plain/AI
  • Drops a design reference to adapt
  • Asks for design variations of an existing carousel

Example prompts

  • “looks too plain/AI”
  • “/carousel-styles”

Workflow steps

8 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Never bake text into generated images. Image models garble letters
  2. Text must never contradict the photo. If a line names a colour or a
  3. Vary faceless poses. "No face" prompts collapse into everyone standing
  4. The narrative arc is pain → more pain (the bad fix) → hope → solution.
  5. No trailing periods in display copy. Catchy hook on slide 1 — numeral-
  6. Wrap by measured width, not character count, and autofit font size.
  7. Fonts are part of the ref. Identify the actual family (geometric
  8. Photos come from a bank, not fresh generation. Generate a photo once,

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit faba220. 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

Carousel Styles loads about 1.6k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 129 tokens; SKILL.md has 856 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~129
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.6k

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 856 words (~1,589 tokens).

“Never invent a slide layout from scratch. Every design here was found on Pinterest/TikTok as a proven, save-worthy genre, decomposed into its working mechanics, and rebuilt as a deterministic PIL recipe. The pipeline:”
