### Step 4: Generate Output

**For each slide, provide:**

```json
{
  "slide_number": 1,
  "title": "Slide Title",
  "content": {
    "headline": "Main message",
    "bullets": ["Point 1", "Point 2", "Point 3"],
    "key_stat": "XX% growth" 
  },
  "talking_points": [
    "What to say when presenting this slide",
    "Key points to emphasize",
    "Anticipated questions"
  ],
  "visual_concept": {
    "type": "chart/screenshot/icon/photo",
    "description": "What the visual should show",
    "image_prompt": "Prompt for image generation if applicable"
  }
}
```

### Step 5: Generate Slide Images (If Requested)

If user wants images, generate using the `image-generation` skill.

**Ask first:**
> "Want me to generate images for each slide?
> - 📊 Charts & diagrams (market size, competitive matrix, growth graphs)
> - 📸 Concept visuals (product mockups, icons, illustrations)
> - 🎨 Both
> - ❌ No images (content only)"

**Image types by slide:**

| Slide | Image Type | Example Prompt |
|-------|------------|----------------|
| Problem | Icon/illustration | "Simple icon illustration of [pain point], clean minimal style, single color" |
| Solution | Product mockup | "Modern app screenshot mockup on iPhone, clean UI showing [feature]" |
| Market | Chart | "Professional market size chart, TAM SAM SOM concentric circles, blue gradient, business presentation style" |
| Product | Screenshot/demo | "Product dashboard screenshot, modern SaaS interface, clean design" |
| Traction | Growth chart | "Line graph showing exponential growth, up and to the right, professional chart style, green trend line" |
| Competition | 2x2 matrix | "Competitive positioning matrix, 2x2 grid with company logos, business presentation style" |
| Team | Team grid | (Use actual photos if provided) |
| Financials | Pie chart | "Use of funds pie chart, 4 segments, professional business colors" |

**Prompt template:**
```
Professional pitch deck visual for [SLIDE_TYPE],
[SPECIFIC CONTENT],
clean modern design,
business presentation style,
[BRAND COLORS if known],
minimal, high contrast
```

**Example generation:**
```bash
python3 ${SKILL_PATH}/skills/image-generation/scripts/gemini.py \
  --prompt "Professional market opportunity chart, TAM $50B SAM $5B SOM $500M concentric circles, blue gradient colors, clean business presentation style, white background, labeled segments" \
  --aspect-ratio "16:9" \
  --resolution "2K"
```

**Save files as:**
