Talk Pipeline Orchestrator
Orchestrates the complete talk preparation pipeline — from raw material to revision sheets. Can run the full pipeline or a single isolated stage.
Modes
- `--rex`: REX talk with git/code proof (changelog, commits, measured metrics)
- `--concept`: Conceptual talk from article, ideas, notes (skips Stage 2)
Usage
/talk-pipeline # full pipeline, asks for context
/talk-pipeline --stage=extract # run a single isolated stage
/talk-pipeline --rex # REX mode (git archaeology included)
/talk-pipeline --concept # Concept mode (skip research)
/talk-pipeline --rex --slug=my-talk --event="Conf 2026" --date=2026-06-15 --duration=30Context Collection
Ask with AskUserQuestion if not provided:
- slug : kebab-case identifier (e.g., my-talk-topic)
- event : event name (e.g., Conf 2026, Tech Meetup)
- date : talk date (YYYY-MM-DD)
- duration : duration in minutes (e.g., 30)
- audience : audience profile (e.g., senior devs, tech leads, non-tech)
- type : --rex or --concept
- source_path : path to source material (article .mdx, transcript .md, notes)
- repo_path : (REX only) path to git repository for archaeologyWorkflow
- **Collect context** — AskUserQuestion for required metadata
- **Route by mode** — `--rex` vs `--concept` (skip Stage 2 if concept)
- **Run Stage 1** — `/talk-stage1-extract` — always first
- **Run Stages 2-4 in parallel** (after Stage 1 confirmed)
- REX: extract → research + concepts + position (in parallel)
- Concept: extract → concepts + position (in parallel, skip research)
- **CHECKPOINT** — wait for angle + title choice (Stage 4 output)
- **Run Stage 5** — `/talk-stage5-script` with validated choice
- **Run Stage 6** — `/talk-stage6-revision`
- **Final summary** — list all generated files with their paths
