Fit a Canva presentation to a target speaking duration by generating or rewriting presenter notes only (visible slide text is not edited). Use when users say "make this a 10-minute presentation", "split time evenly across slides", "generate speaker notes for a 15-minute talk", "fit my deck to [duration]", or "how long per slide for a 20-minute slot".

# Presentation Time-Fitting

Take an existing Canva presentation and align it with a target speaking duration **using presenter notes only**. Visible **on-slide text is read** for context and timing, but **must not** be changed by this skill. The flow is: confirm **design + total duration** (before cloning), read slide text, divide time across slides, **add, replace, or trim speaker notes** per slide to match each slot, write **notes only** back via Canva editing tools.

## Primary workflow (time-balanced presenter notes)

### Step 1: Collect design and duration (before other Canva tool calls)

- Gather everything you need **before** calling `Canva:resize-design`, `Canva:get-design-content` or other editing/content tools:
  - **Design**: link (`canva.link`), full Canva URL, **design ID**, or **design name** (see Step 2 for how each maps to `design_id`)
  - **Total speaking time** for delivering the deck (e.g. `"15 minutes"`, `"45 min"`, `"1 hour"`). Parse to **total seconds** (or minutes as a decimal). If the user is vague, confirm the **total minutes** they want for speaking through the slides (include Q&A in that total only if they say so)
- If either design or duration is missing, **ask and wait** before proceeding

### Step 2: Resolve the design
