A set of instructions for working with PowerPoint presentation files, whose file extension is .pptx.

Use it to analyze existing presentations, create decks from scratch, or modify a presentation template and its slides.

It provides workflows for reading, creating, editing, unpacking, and visually checking slide decks.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5	$0.00152	$0.02368
Opus 5	$0.00076	$0.01184
Sonnet 5	$0.00030	$0.00474
Haiku 4.5	$0.00015	$0.00237

Security

Grade A, and why

pptx scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 16 executable files (scripts/__init__.py, scripts/add_slide.py, scripts/clean.py, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Design Ideas

Don't create boring slides. Plain bullets on a white background won't impress anyone. Consider ideas from this list for each slide.

Before Starting

Pick a bold, content-informed color palette: The palette should feel designed for THIS topic. If swapping your colors into a completely different presentation would still "work," you haven't made specific enough choices.
Dominance over equality: One color should dominate (60-70% visual weight), with 1-2 supporting tones and one sharp accent. Never give all colors equal weight.
Dark/light contrast: Dark backgrounds for title + conclusion slides, light for content ("sandwich" structure). Or commit to dark throughout for a premium feel.
Commit to a visual motif: Pick ONE distinctive element and repeat it — rounded image frames, icons in colored circles, thick single-side borders. Carry it across every slide.

Color Palettes

Choose colors that match your topic — don't default to generic blue. Use these palettes as inspiration:

Theme	Primary	Secondary	Accent
Midnight Executive	`1E2761` (navy)	`CADCFC` (ice blue)	`FFFFFF` (white)
Forest & Moss	`2C5F2D` (forest)	`97BC62` (moss)	`F5F5F5` (cream)
Coral Energy	`F96167` (coral)	`F9E795` (gold)	`2F3C7E` (navy)
Warm Terracotta	`B85042` (terracotta)	`E7E8D1` (sand)	`A7BEAE` (sage)
Ocean Gradient	`065A82` (deep blue)	`1C7293` (teal)	`21295C` (midnight)
Charcoal Minimal	`36454F` (charcoal)	`F2F2F2` (off-white)	`212121` (black)
Teal Trust	`028090` (teal)	`00A896` (seafoam)	`02C39A` (mint)
Berry & Cream	`6D2E46` (berry)	`A26769` (dusty rose)	`ECE2D0` (cream)

What ships with it

58 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

skillpack-creator

Create a reusable SkillPack from a successful completed task. Use when the user wants to convert a one-off research, coding, analysis, or content workflow into a distributable local SkillPack with skillpack.json, local skills under skills/, starter prompts, start scripts, and an optional zip package.

skill-creator

Create new skills, modify and improve existing skills, and measure skill performance. Use when users want to create a skill from scratch, edit, or optimize an existing skill, run evals to test a skill, benchmark skill performance with variance analysis, or optimize a skill's description for better triggering accuracy.

starting-a-new-project

Use when the workspace is empty — no code yet — and the user brings a raw idea: the brand-new branch of setting-up-a-project, normally reached via that dispatcher, directly only when the situation is unmistakable. Not for features in an existing project — use brainstorming instead.

todos

This chat has a shared, live TODO plan — your tasks for the conversation, which the user also edits. Read this skill and reach for the todo tools whenever a request takes more than a couple of steps. It covers the plan model (group = task, items = its steps; loose items are the user's lane), how to work it: propose…

Use when adding a new workflow skill to pi-thinkrail-workflow, changing an existing workflow skill's role, trigger, handoff, or structure, or checking a workflow skill against the workflow system's rules. Not for authoring general-purpose skills outside this package.

brainstorming

Use this BEFORE any creative or feature work: building a new feature, adding functionality, changing behavior, or making a nontrivial design decision. Turns the user's request into a validated design — recorded as a spec-graph task-spec — before any implementation. Do not skip this because a change looks small.
