Fix slides that are documents in landscape mode — the one-point-per-slide rule, the projection-vs-reading fork that decides density, the text diet (headlines and evidence, prose to notes), and the glance test. Use when asked my slides are too busy, how much text per slide, fix this wall-of-bullets deck, or make this readable from the back of the room. Produces the density diagnosis, the per-slide fixes (split, strip, or move-to-notes), the projection/document fork decision, and the glance-test results.

From the source SKILL.md

The wall-of-bullets slide fails twice simultaneously: the audience reads instead of listening (reading speed beats talking speed, so they finish and disengage while the presenter catches up), and nothing on it is retained because everything competed. The fix starts with a fork most decks never take: is this projected (accompanying a live talk — then slides are billboards: one point, big, glanceable) or read (sent as a document — then it's a doc wearing slide clothes, and density is fine but it should be built as a [outline-before-prose](../outline-before-prose/SKILL.md) memo-deck on purpose)?…
