The Weekly Update Deck skill is designed to streamline the process of creating a structured HTML presentation for team updates. This skill is particularly useful for operations and growth teams that require a consistent format to communicate key metrics and decisions on a weekly basis. By following a straightforward workflow, users can quickly compile essential data into a visually engaging format that is easy to navigate and share.

To create a weekly update, users begin by reading the accompanying DESIGN.md file to gather necessary information, such as the squad name, week range, and audience type. The skill then guides users through a series of slides that cover crucial aspects of the week’s progress. Each slide serves a specific purpose, from highlighting what has shipped and what is currently in flight, to identifying any blockers and presenting key metrics. This structure ensures that all relevant information is communicated clearly and effectively.

The output is a single-file, horizontally swipable HTML deck that can be easily shared with team members. The design accommodates a range of content, including inline charts and owner avatars, making it a versatile tool for various team dynamics. With navigation via arrow keys or clicks, the presentation is user-friendly and designed for quick consumption of information.

This skill is ideal for teams looking to enhance their weekly standups or update meetings with a professional presentation format that emphasizes decision-making based on data. By focusing on the most critical metrics and decisions, teams can foster a more informed and engaged work environment.
