bento-slides
Create and edit Bento presentations — self-contained .bento.html decks whose document is JSON. Use whenever the user wants a slide deck or presentation: from scratch, from source material, or by improving an existing file.
npx skills add Prism-Shadow/penguin-harness --skill bento-slides --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Authoring Bento decks A Bento deck is one self-contained `.bento.html` file. The document is plain JSON in a single block: ```html <script type="application/bento+json" id="bento-doc"> { "format":"bento/slides", ... } </script> ``` Edit **that block only**, in place. Escape every `<` in the JSON as `\u003c` so it can never contain a literal `</script>`. Leave the rest of the file — the compressed runtime — untouched. In a chat context the user copies the JSON out instead (*Save ▾ → Copy document JSON*) and pastes the replacement back (*Save ▾ → Replace from JSON…*); `window.bento.loadDoc(json)` does the same from the console. Adapted from the Bento project's own skill, https://bento.page/skills/bento-slides/SKILL.md (MIT, © 2026 The Bento/Suite authors). The authoritative schema and recipe reference is https://bento.page/agents.md. ## Before you start If the user's message only invokes this skill (e.g. "use bento-slides skill") without a concrete request, ask what deck they want before doing anything: the topic, the source material to build it from, and whether to start from scratch or edit an existing `.bento.html`. Do not download anything or write a document until the goal is
- Before you start
- Starting from nothing
- Workflow
- Critical gotchas
name the file after the deck's topic, e.g. Q4_Review.bento.html curl -fsSL https://bento.page/releases/slides/Bento_Slides.bento.html -o "<Topic>.bento.html"
What does the bento-slides skill do?
Create and edit Bento presentations — self-contained .bento.html decks whose document is JSON. Use whenever the user wants a slide deck or presentation: from scratch, from source material, or by improving an existing file.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add Prism-Shadow/penguin-harness --skill bento-slides --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From Prism-Shadow/penguin-harness, a repository with 473 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
