HTML PPT — Tactical Telemetry / CRT Terminal

A 16:9 deck for project debriefs, security reviews, infra incident write-ups, ops walkthroughs, and any "we are not selling, we are reporting" presentation. Reads like a declassified mission packet, not a pitch deck.

This skill commits to ONE substrate (dark CRT) — never mix with the light Swiss-print mode in the same artifact.

Source

Distilled from Leonxlnx/taste-skillskills/brutalist-skill/SKILL.md §2.2 (Tactical Telemetry & CRT Terminal). Deck system follows the project's existing html-ppt convention (16:9 slides, vertical-stack fallback when opened directly).

Hard rules

  • Substrate: deactivated-CRT charcoal #0A0A0A / #121212. Never pure black.
  • Foreground: white phosphor #EAEAEA. Secondary #9A9A98.
  • Accent: ONE color — hazard red #E61919. Used on alerts, classifications, the latest data point. Never as a slide background fill.
  • Optional: terminal green #4AF626 for ONE specific UI element across the entire deck (e.g. a single status indicator). Omit if it doesn't earn its place.
  • Type: monospace dominates. JetBrains Mono / IBM Plex Mono for body and meta. Heavy condensed grotesque (Archivo Black / Inter Black) only for slide titles.
  • Title scale: clamp(56px, 7vw, 96px), uppercase, tracking -0.04em, leading 0.9.
  • Geometry: border-radius: 0. Visible 1px hairlines (#2A2A28 on charcoal). Use display: grid; gap: 1px over a hairline-colored background to render perfect cells.
  • Scanline overlay: subtle repeating-linear-gradient at 2px / 4px cycle, opacity ≤ 0.08, applied as a fixed pointer-events-none layer.
  • Phosphor noise: optional SVG-grain pseudo-element, opacity ≤ 0.06.
  • Slide chrome: every slide carries top register strip — classification, slide ID, timestamp, coordinates — and a bottom bar with serial number + page.

Banned

  • border-radius above 0.
  • Drop shadows, gradients, glassmorphism, glow.
  • Color other than charcoal, phosphor, hazard red, and at most one terminal-green element.
  • Sans-serif body fonts. Monospace is the body.
  • Pitch-deck "delight" — emoji, illustration, stock photography, friendly icons.
  • Light-mode slides anywhere in the same deck.
  • Slide transitions other than instant cuts.

Required slide archetypes (10–14 total)

1. Classification cover — giant numeral or call-sign on the left, redaction bar above the title, mono meta column on the right. 2. Briefing strip — eight-cell mono register with mission ID, dates, principals, classification. 3. Numbered objectives — three to five hairline-separated theses, each with >>> marker. 4. Telemetry griddisplay: grid; gap: 1px of mono key-value cells; red highlight on the variant that breaks the trend. 5. Threat / risk register — hairline table with severity column in red. 6. Sequence / timeline — vertical mono list, 2-px vertical rule on the left, hazard markers on critical events. 7. Diagram / wiring — pure-CSS box-and-line schematic; rectangles with hairlines, ASCII arrows. 8. Specimen — single mono character or word at viewport-bleeding scale, used as a visual fulcrum. 9. Alert — diagonal hazard-stripe block (repeating-linear-gradient(135deg, ...)) with the most important sentence in the deck. 10. Audit log — append-only mono entries with timestamp + actor + event. 11. Closing colophon — operator, system, build, classification, sign-off line.

Motion

This aesthetic is mechanical and instant.

  • Cuts between slides — no fades. Optionally a 60ms flicker (opacity: 0.85 → 1).
  • A blinking caret on the cover () and a single pulse on the live status dot. Nothing else moves.

Pre-flight

  • [ ] Substrate is charcoal, foreground is phosphor, only accent is hazard red
  • [ ] All border-radius is 0; all corners are 90°
  • [ ] Title slide includes classification + serial + timestamp + coordinates
  • [ ] At least one display: grid; gap: 1px telemetry module
  • [ ] Scanline overlay applied as fixed pointer-events-none element, opacity ≤ 0.08
  • [ ] At least one diagonal hazard-stripe alert block
  • [ ] ASCII syntax decoration ([ ... ], >>>, ///) appears at least four times across the deck
  • [ ] Numeric data uses tabular-nums + monospace
  • [ ] No emojis, no curves, no gradients, no shadow effects
  • [ ] Terminal green appears on zero or one element only — never as text body color
