Presenter profile

Your name, affiliation, contact lines, default language, unit word and teaching style, saved as studio.json.

The presenter profile is who the decks are by. New decks put the name and affiliation on the title slide and the contact lines on the closing slide, and the assistant gets the profile as context, including how you teach or speak.

Open it from the profile button on the library screen (your name, or Set up your profile), from View › Presenter Profile… in the workspace, or from the first step of the Getting started checklist.

Saved as studio.json at the root of the library.

Fields#

Field	Used for
Name	Title slide, closing slide, chat context. Required.
Email	Closing slide.
Affiliation	Title slide: university, company or event.
Department or role	Title slide.
Contact lines for the closing slide	One per line. `Label: value` renders as a bold label, for example `Office hours: Tuesday 14:00–16:00, Room B21`.
Default language	The language new courses and talks start with.
A course is made of…	The default unit word for new courses: weeks, sessions, modules, lectures, days or parts.
How you teach or speak	Principles, pacing, tone, what to avoid. The assistant follows this when it writes. A few lines are enough.

Save profile writes studio.json at the root of the library and shows a toast. Later (on first run) or Cancel closes without saving.

  "affiliation": "University of Example",

  "exclude": ["scripts"]
}

Empty fields are left out. exclude is the list of top-level folders hidden from the library; it is edited from the card menu and Settings, not from this dialog. A longer teaching style can go into a TEACHING_STYLE.md next to it; the assistant reads that file when it exists.

Profiles are per library

Each library folder has its own studio.json. If the library is a git repository, the profile travels with it, and a new checkout without one is pre-filled from the git user name and email.
