Each data command (draft, edit, optimize, schedule, hashtags, hooks, cta, rewrite, translate, tone, headline, outline) works in two modes:
- Without arguments — displays the 20 most recent entries from its log
- With arguments — saves the input with a timestamp to its dedicated log file
Data Storage
All data is stored in ~/.local/share/slideshow-generator/:
draft.log, edit.log, optimize.log, schedule.log, hashtags.log, hooks.log — per-command log filescta.log, rewrite.log, translate.log, tone.log, headline.log, outline.log — additional command logshistory.log — unified activity history across all commandsexport.json, export.csv, export.txt — generated export files
Set SLIDESHOW_GENERATOR_DIR environment variable to override the default data directory.
Requirements
- Bash 4+ with standard coreutils (
date, wc, du, tail, grep, sed)
- No external dependencies — pure shell implementation
When to Use
- Drafting slide decks — quickly draft and iterate on presentation content from the terminal
- Refining presentation text — edit, rewrite, or adjust tone of existing slide content
- Scheduling talks — keep track of upcoming presentation dates and deadlines
- Creating social hooks — generate hashtags, headlines, and CTAs for promoting talks online
- Outlining presentations — structure a talk from scratch with hierarchical outlines
