Export PPTX

Export PPTX

Screenshot-based PPTX export — each <section> inside <deck-stage> becomes one slide (1920×1080 image + optional speaker notes).

Preflight

1. Bash(which node) — if missing, tell user to install Node 20+
2. Check package.json has pptxgenjs + puppeteer — if not, run:

   Bash(npm install -D pptxgenjs puppeteer)
   

   (or tell user to run /doctor first)

Steps

1. Resolve paths:

   • $0 = deck HTML (required)
   • $1 = output (default: basename + .pptx)

2. Run the export script:

   Bash(node scripts/export-pptx.mjs "<input>" "<output>")
   

3. Report size + path.

Script dependencies

scripts/export-pptx.mjs must exist. If missing, create it (see template in spec §4.5 or ask user to run /doctor).

What the script does

• Launches headless Chromium (puppeteer)
• Loads the deck HTML at 1920×1080
• Reads <deck-stage>.totalSlides
• For each slide: goToSlide(i), set noscale, page.screenshot at clip 0,0,1920,1080
• Reads #speaker-notes JSON (if present) and attaches per-slide notes
• Builds .pptx with pptxgenjs (16:9 layout, one PNG-background slide each)

Notes

• Images can be large — 5 MB per slide at 1920×1080 is normal
• For smaller files, pass --jpeg 0.8 to the script (compress to JPEG at 80% quality)
• Not editable in PowerPoint — each slide is a raster image. For native-editable export, skill not supported in v3.
