This skill helps Claude work with PowerPoint files in the .pptx and .potx formats whenever such a file is created, read, or modified. According to the SKILL.md instructions, it applies broadly: generating new slide decks, extracting or reading content from existing presentations, editing or restructuring decks, and working with templates, layouts, speaker notes, or comments. Deck creation is done through a scripting approach using pptxgenjs, while editing existing files involves unpacking the underlying XML, making changes, and repackaging it. Supporting scripts handle tasks like generating slide thumbnails, removing unused parts, and validating the resulting file's structure. The material also includes detailed guidance on color palettes, typography choices, layout patterns, and a quality-check process covering content accuracy, file validity, and visual rendering.
