Slide Deck

Q: How do I know the Slide Deck output is good?

The skill verifies itself against its own quality checks: Each slide has an **assertion headline** (states the point), not a topic label; One idea per slide; bullets are concise phrases, not paragraphs; Styling is consistent (accent, fonts, spacing) and uses brand colour if provided; The deck has a clear narrative arc and ends on the ask.

Build a real, editable PowerPoint (.pptx) deck from an outline or brief. Use when asked to make a slide deck, a PowerPoint, a pitch/board/sales deck as an actual file, or to turn a doc/notes into slides. Produces an actual .pptx via a generated python-pptx script — a title slide, one idea per content slide with a clear headline and concise bullets, and consistent styling. Requires a code-execution environment (Claude Code, the API code tool, or Claude.ai).

What to give it

▸Deck type & goal — pitch, board update, sales deck, training, readout — and the one thing the audience should do/believe.

▸The content — an outline, doc, or notes (the skill structures it into slides).

▸Audience & length — who's watching and roughly how many slides.

▸Brand — any colours/font (defaults to a clean, neutral theme otherwise).

✅ The bar it holds itself to

Every skill in this library self-verifies — these are this skill's own quality checks, straight from its definition.

✓Each slide has an **assertion headline** (states the point), not a topic label

✓One idea per slide; bullets are concise phrases, not paragraphs

✓Styling is consistent (accent, fonts, spacing) and uses brand colour if provided

✓The deck has a clear narrative arc and ends on the ask

✓The script runs and the file opens cleanly in PowerPoint/Keynote/Slides

⚠️ What it refuses to do

Do not write topic-label titles ("Metrics") — use the takeaway ("Retention drove 80% of growth")

Do not cram multiple ideas onto one slide — split them; one point per slide

Do not paste paragraphs as bullets — phrases on the slide, detail in speaker notes

Do not vary styling slide to slide — consistency is what makes a deck look professional

Do not claim a file exists without code execution — fall back to the outline / the playground's PPTX export
