Inspect the current slide order and record which content occupies the target position. Multiple deletions can shift later slide numbers.

A focused terminal workflow

The --page argument is a 1-based slide number. Recheck slide positions after earlier edits so you do not remove the wrong slide.

Acceptance checks

Review the output sequence and its transitions. The correct slide count alone cannot prove that the intended slide was removed.

Inspect the saved deck and review the slides immediately before and after the removed position.
