Presentations

Use this skill when the user asks for slides, a deck, a PowerPoint file, or a .pptx deliverable.

Workflow

  1. Determine the deck purpose, audience, slide count, and output path.
  2. Build an outline with one clear claim or job per slide.
  3. Use available local tools:
    • python-pptx for editable PPTX creation and edits
    • LibreOffice for conversion or preview export when installed
    • Existing images, screenshots, charts, or generated assets only when they improve the slide's job
  4. Keep slides editable. Prefer native text boxes, tables, charts, and images over flattened screenshots of text.
  5. Use restrained layouts: clear title, concise body, enough whitespace, and consistent type sizes. Avoid cramming paragraphs onto slides.
  6. Verify the PPTX by reopening it, checking slide count and visible text, and exporting previews when a renderer is available.

If python-pptx or a renderer is missing, ask before installing dependencies. Do not claim visual QA passed unless previews were actually generated and inspected.
