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.

Security

Grade A, and why

pptx-to-md 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 9d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (pptx-to-md.cjs), 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.

What it actually says

pptx-to-md

Convert PowerPoint (.pptx) to Markdown via Pandoc.

When to Use

  • Extracting slide content for editing in plain text
  • Migrating decks into documentation systems
  • Salvaging content from legacy .pptx files

What's Here

pptx-to-md.cjs — Node script that wraps Pandoc.

External Dependencies

  • node (≥ 16)
  • pandoc (≥ 3.0) on PATH

Usage

node pptx-to-md.cjs deck.pptx
node pptx-to-md.cjs deck.pptx --output deck.md
node pptx-to-md.cjs deck.pptx --extract-media ./media

Output Structure

PowerPoint Markdown
Each slide ## Slide N heading
Title placeholder First line under heading
Body text / bullets Paragraphs and lists
Speaker notes Quoted block at slide end
Embedded images Saved to --extract-media dir, referenced as ![]()

Notes

  • Animations, transitions, and complex layouts are lost — content survives, motion does not
  • Pair with md-to-pptx for round-trip workflows (lossy for layouts, lossless for content)
  • Use --extract-media to keep images as separate files instead of inlining
Files

What ships with it

1 file 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.

Changes

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.
