/octave:one-pager - Personalized One-Pager Builder

Generate personalized, self-contained HTML one-pager documents (leave-behinds) powered by your Octave GTM knowledge base. Unlike generic templates, this skill enriches every section with real account intelligence -- company signals, persona pain points, playbook messaging, and proof points -- to create a document that feels written specifically for the recipient.

One-pagers are single scrollable pages designed to be sent after a demo, meeting, or call. They summarize why your product is a fit for this specific account. Think of it as the document you email or print, not present.

Usage

/octave:one-pager <target> [--for <occasion>] [--style <preset>]

Examples

/octave:one-pager acme.com                              # General one-pager for Acme
/octave:one-pager jane@acme.com --for demo-followup     # Post-demo leave-behind
/octave:one-pager acme.com --for discovery              # Post-discovery summary
/octave:one-pager "enterprise healthcare segment"       # Segment-level one-pager
/octave:one-pager acme.com --for renewal --style soft-light  # Renewal doc with specific style
/octave:one-pager jane@acme.com --for event-followup    # Post-conference/event follow-up

Occasions

Occasion	Output Focus
demo-followup	Recap what was shown, reinforce value, clear next steps
discovery	Summarize pain points heard, position solution fit
intro	General company intro tailored to the account (default)
event-followup	Post-conference/event personalized summary
renewal	Reinforce value delivered, expansion opportunities

Instructions

When the user runs /octave:one-pager:

Step 1: Understand the Context

If not provided via flags, ask the user interactively:

Target -- "Who is this for?"

Who is this one-pager for?

Provide any of the following:
- Company domain (e.g., acme.com)
- Person email (e.g., jane@acme.com)
- Segment description (e.g., "enterprise healthcare")

Target:

Occasion -- "What's the context?"

What's the occasion for this one-pager?

1. Demo follow-up - Sent after a product demo
2. Discovery follow-up - Sent after a discovery call
3. General intro - First touch or general positioning
4. Event follow-up - Sent after a conference/event meeting
5. Renewal - Reinforcing value for an existing customer

Your choice:

Tone -- "What tone should it strike?"

What tone fits best?

1. Formal executive - Polished, concise, boardroom-ready
2. Conversational - Warm, approachable, peer-to-peer
3. Technical - Data-driven, detailed, practitioner-focused

Your choice:

Step 2: Octave Context Gathering

Based on target, occasion, and tone, use Octave MCP tools to build rich context for the one-pager. Always tell the user what you're researching and why.

Call as many tools as needed to build a complete picture. The best one-pagers come from layering multiple sources -- company enrichment + playbook messaging + proof points + conversation intel all combine to create a document that feels genuinely personalized. Don't stop at one tool when three would give you a stronger narrative.

That said, not every tool applies to every one-pager. Use your judgment about which are relevant to this specific situation. The tables below show what's available -- pick the combination that gives you the richest context for the occasion and target.

See tool-reference.md for list-vs-search guidance, follow-up grounding tools, and the tool reference tables for account-specific and segment-level one-pagers.

Output of this step: Present a content outline to the user for approval. See outline-template.md for the outline template.

Wait for user approval before proceeding.

Step 3: Style Selection

One-pagers use the same 12 style presets and brand extraction system as the deck skill. See style-presets.md for full CSS variable definitions.

Ask the user:

How would you like to style the one-pager?

1. Pick from presets — 12 styles from dark executive to light minimal
2. Use my brand — extract from my website or provide brand assets
3. Auto-pick — I'll choose based on the occasion and tone
4. Surprise me

Your choice:

Option 1: Preset Picker -- Show the same preset table from the deck skill (see /octave:deck Step 4, Option 2).

Option 2: Brand Extraction -- Follow the same brand discovery flow from the deck skill (see /octave:deck Step 3). Supports browser-use tier, WebFetch tier, and manual fallback. Confirm brand config with user before proceeding.

Option 3: Auto-Pick -- Map occasion + tone to recommended presets:

Occasion + Tone	Recommended Preset
Demo follow-up, formal	midnight-pro
Demo follow-up, conversational	soft-light
Discovery, formal	executive-dark
Discovery, conversational	swiss-modern
Intro, formal	midnight-pro
Intro, conversational	soft-light
Intro, technical	electric-studio
Event follow-up	aurora-gradient
Renewal, formal	executive-dark
Renewal, conversational	soft-light

Tell the user what you picked and why. Let them override.

Step 4: Generate HTML

Build a single, self-contained HTML file. No external dependencies except Google Fonts. This is a single scrollable document -- NOT slides.

Output Directory

Every one-pager gets its own folder under .octave-one-pagers/:

.octave-one-pagers/
└── <kebab-case-name>-<YYYY-MM-DD>/
    └── <name>.html

Example: /octave:one-pager acme.com produces .octave-one-pagers/acme-one-pager-2026-02-11/acme-one-pager.html

The entire .octave-one-pagers/ directory is in .gitignore -- nothing here gets committed.

HTML Architecture

See html-architecture.md for the HTML/CSS scaffold and key differences from the deck skill's HTML.

Document Sections

See document-sections.md for per-section HTML templates (Header, The Challenge, Our Approach, Key Differentiators, Proof Points, Next Steps).

Content Density Rules

Keep it tight. A one-pager should be scannable in under 2 minutes:

Section	Max Content
Header	Company name + title + date + "Prepared for"
The Challenge	2-3 sentences max
Our Approach	3-4 value props, each 1-2 sentences
Key Differentiators	3 cards max, each heading + 1-2 sentences
Proof Points	2-3 metrics or quotes
Next Steps	1 CTA + contact info

If content exceeds these limits, prioritize ruthlessly. The one-pager is a teaser, not a whitepaper.

Step 5: Delivery

After generating the HTML file:

1. Open the one-pager in the default browser
2. Present a summary:

ONE-PAGER READY
================

Folder: .octave-one-pagers/<name>-<date>/
File:   .octave-one-pagers/<name>-<date>/<name>.html
Style:  [Preset name or "Custom Brand"]
Size:   [file size]

Viewing:
- Open in any browser -- single scrollable page
- Print-friendly -- Cmd+P / Ctrl+P for clean printout
- Email as attachment or save as PDF

Customization tips:
- Colors: Edit the :root CSS variables at the top of the file
- Content: Each <section class="section"> is one block
- Fonts: Change the Google Fonts <link> and font-family values
- Layout: Adjust max-width in .page for wider/narrower output

Want me to:
1. Adjust content or messaging
2. Change the style/colors
3. Export as PDF (print dialog)
4. Create a version for a different contact at the same company
5. Create a full presentation deck for this account (/octave:deck)
6. Done

Error Handling

Octave Connection Failed:

Could not connect to your Octave workspace.

The one-pager builder can still work without Octave -- you'll provide the content manually, and I'll handle structure, style, and HTML generation.

To reconnect: check your MCP configuration or run /octave:workspace status

Company/Person Not Found:

I couldn't find detailed intelligence for [target].

Options:

1. Proceed with what we have -- I'll use general positioning from your library
2. Try a different domain or email
3. Provide the content manually and I'll build the one-pager

No Matching Playbook:

No playbook matches this audience profile directly.

I'll use your general value props and positioning. After the one-pager is built, consider creating a playbook for this segment: /octave:library create playbook

No Proof Points Available:

No proof points found matching this account's industry or segment.

Options:

1. Proceed without the proof points section
2. Use general proof points from your library
3. Provide customer results manually and I'll format them

No Findings for Follow-Up:

No conversation findings found for [target] in the recent period.

This means I'll build the one-pager from enrichment data and library content rather than grounding it in specific past conversations. You can provide meeting notes or context manually if you have them.
