Show HN: SlideOps – slides from a repo that flag when they drift from the code
The demo deck is 17 slides about SlideOps, built by SlideOps: open the
HTML or the
PDF.
Writing documentation isn't the bottleneck any more. Keeping it true is. The deck that said
we run two database migrations still says two, a year after we started running ten 😅.
SlideOps is a pair of Agent Skills for Claude Code
and compatible coding agents. It treats a generated document the way you'd treat generated
code: it's built from a source, and it records which source it came from.
The reasoning behind it is written up in
Your documentation is a build artifact. Start treating it like one.
Claude Code. This repo is its own marketplace, so two lines are the whole setup, and
it's the only install that keeps itself up to date:
All four agents read SKILL.md and nothing needs porting between them. For the symlink and
snapshot installs, the per-agent table and how updates reach you, see
docs/install.md.
Third-party marketplaces have auto-update off by default. Turn it on once in
/plugin → Marketplaces, or new versions only arrive when you run
/plugin marketplace update slideops by hand.
SlideOps scans the repo first, then asks one compact set of questions: which topic (it
proposes concrete candidates it found, each with a "why now"), audience, length, theme and
extras. You get an outline to approve before it writes any HTML.
