AI agent skill
PowerPoint Skill
Generate and edit PowerPoint (.pptx) decks with real slides, not markdown pretending to be a presentation.
·
When to use this skill
Use the PowerPoint skill when the output must be a .pptx others will present: a review deck, a sales narrative, a lecture. One slide, one idea.
When not to use it
Do not use it for a written memo (DOCX) or a printable handout (PDF). Skip it when you only need an outline in markdown.
How to install
- Personal install: create ~/.claude/skills/pptx/SKILL.md (and any bundled scripts) so Claude Code, Claude Desktop, and compatible agents can load it in every project.
- Project install: commit the same folder at .claude/skills/pptx/ so teammates get the skill with the repo.
- Restart the agent session after copying files so it re-scans the skills directory, then ask for the task in words that match the skill description.
What this skill does
Slide skills fail when they write essays. This skill is for short headlines, supporting bullets, and a file PowerPoint can open.
Intended uses
- Turn a one-pager into a 8–12 slide review deck
- Rebuild a messy export into a consistent template
- Draft speaker notes separately from on-slide text
