Talk Builder
| Turn a paper (or several, a thesis, a body of work) into an academic talk — outline, per-slide content, speaker notes, opening hook, single take-home message, backup slides for Q&A, rehearsal plan. Adapts to talk length (3-min lightning through 90-min defense), audience (specialists / general field / cross-disciplinary / clinical / public), format (contributed / lightning / invited / plenary / keynote / symposium / workshop / defense / job talk / public lecture / course lecture), and discipline conventions (sciences, social sciences, CS / ML / HCI, medicine, education, humanities, law, math). Produces a deck-platform-agnostic outline plus optional Marp / Quarto / reveal.js / Beamer stubs. Trigger when: user mentions "turn paper into talk", "presentation outline", "slides for my talk", "conference talk", "lecture outline", "academic presentation", "speaker notes", "thesis defense talk", "job talk", "keynote", "invited talk", "lightning talk", "elevator pitch of my paper", or runs /talk.
