nirjhar17 Google Slides Agenda Slide Creator
Create a polished agenda slide using official Red Hat icons sourced from the Red Hat Icon Repository presentation in Google Drive.
Design Specification
The agenda slide follows Red Hat brand guidelines with this exact layout:
- White background (use presentation's built-in blank layout)
- Full-width Red Hat Red header banner at top (10" wide, 0.8" tall)
- "Agenda" text inside the header: white, Red Hat Display Bold, 28pt, positioned at x=0.5"
- Agenda items listed vertically below the header, filling the slide height
- Each item has: an official Red Hat icon (0.32" x 0.32") + text label (Red Hat Text, 18pt, dark)
- Items start at y=1.0" with ~0.47" spacing (adjust based on item count to fill slide)
- Icon position: x=0.4", text position: x=1.1"
- Text color: near-black
{"red": 0.102, "green": 0.102, "blue": 0.102} - Header color: Red Hat Red
{"red": 0.933, "green": 0.0, "blue": 0.0} - No red accent bar/tape below header — just the header block itself
- Cover "V0000000" footer text with a white rectangle (1.5" x 0.35" at x=10.2", y=6.85")
Icon Source
Icons come from the Red Hat Icon Repository presentation in Google Drive:
- Presentation ID:
1SRhy8-bYBgaA3Jsi1t_Fxz-Yo9ORgdRy5Kec9hg_wSM - DO NOT modify this presentation — only read from it
How to get icon thumbnails
Get the Icon Repository presentation structure:
gws slides presentations get --params '{"presentationId":"1SRhy8-bYBgaA3Jsi1t_Fxz-Yo9ORgdRy5Kec9hg_wSM"}'Each slide in the Icon Repository contains one icon. The slide's text content or speaker notes describe the icon name/category.
Get a thumbnail URL for a specific slide:
gws slides presentations pages getThumbnail --params '{"presentationId":"1SRhy8-bYBgaA3Jsi1t_Fxz-Yo9ORgdRy5Kec9hg_wSM","pageObjectId":"<SLIDE_ID>","thumbnailProperties.thumbnailSize":"LARGE"}'Use the thumbnail URL in
createImageto insert the icon into the target presentation.
Common icon mappings
Use these icon categories as a guide when selecting icons for agenda items:
| Topic Type | Suggested Icon Name | Category |
|---|---|---|
| Overview / Intro | Info | Shapes and signage |
| Architecture | Architecture | Diagrams and graphs |
| Deployment | Cloud | Software and technologies |
| Configuration / Integration | Gear | Objects |
| Backup / Recovery / Rollback | Backup recovery | Software and technologies |
| Security / RBAC | Secured | Software and technologies |
| Multiple apps / Sets | Apps | Software and technologies |
| Webhooks / Automation | Web hooks | Software and technologies |
| Best practices / Validation | Checkbox (Checked) | Shapes and signage |
| Monitoring / Observability | Monitoring | Software and technologies |
| Networking | Network | Software and technologies |
| Storage | Storage | Software and technologies |
| Users / Teams | Users | People |
Implementation Steps
Step 1 — Identify target presentation and slide position
Get the target presentation ID and determine where the agenda slide should go (typically index 1, making it slide 2 after the title).
Step 2 — Gather agenda items from user
Ask the user for the list of agenda topics, or infer from the presentation content.
Step 3 — Match icons to agenda items
Search the Icon Repository for icons matching each agenda topic. Use the common mappings table above as a starting point.
Step 4 — Write Python builder script
Create a Python script that:
- Creates a new slide at the target position
- Adds the red header rectangle with "Agenda" text
- For each agenda item:
- Gets the icon thumbnail URL from the Icon Repository
- Inserts the icon image at the correct position using
createImage - Adds the text label using
createShape(TEXT_BOX) +insertText
- Adds the V0000000 cover rectangle
- Executes via
gws slides presentations batchUpdate
Key API details
- Object IDs:
"e" + uuid.uuid4().hex[:10] - Units: EMU (1 inch = 914400 EMU, 1 pt = 12700 EMU)
- Slide dimensions: 10" wide x 5.625" tall (widescreen)
- Chunk size: max 200 requests per batchUpdate
- Never
insertTextwith empty string - Guard text operations:
if text: - Use
gws slides presentations batchUpdate --params '{"presentationId":"<ID>"}' --json '<body>'
Step 5 — Execute and verify
Run the script. If it fails, create a fresh slide and retry (do not retry on the same broken slide).
Example Usage
When the user says: "Create an agenda slide for my GitOps presentation"
- Read the presentation to understand existing content
- Ask/infer agenda items (or use presentation section titles)
- Match each item to a Red Hat icon
- Build the slide with header + icons + labels
- Confirm success and share the slide URL
