morph-ppt

A PowerPoint presentation skill for creating smooth Morph transitions, where matching objects move, grow, rotate, or change between slides like continuous animation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to build presentations with Morph transitions, consistent object identities, structured layouts, charts, connectors, and visual checks before delivery.
Why use it?
It supplies rules for naming slide objects, arranging scenes, designing layouts, and checking that the animation works correctly across slides.

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 C, and why

morph-ppt scanned grade C with 3 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 19 executable files (reference/morph-helpers.py, reference/morph-helpers.sh, reference/styles/bw--brutalist-raw/build.sh, …), 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.

OfficeCLI Morph-PPT Skill

This skill is a scene layer on top of officecli-pptx. Every pptx hard rule — visual delivery floor (title ≥ 36pt / body ≥ 18pt / title ≥ 2× body), 12-column grid on 33.87×19.05cm, canonical palettes, chart-choice decision table, connector canon, shell escape, resident + batch, Delivery Gate 1–5a — is inherited, not re-taught. This file adds only what Morph needs on top: cross-slide shape-name binding, Scene Actors vs content prefixing, ghost discipline, transition=morph CLI quirks, 52-style visual library lookup, and a morph-specific fresh-eyes Gate 5b extension.

When the pptx base rules cover it, the text here says → see pptx v2 §X. Read skills/officecli-pptx/SKILL.md first if you have not.

Setup

If officecli is missing:

  • macOS / Linux: curl -fsSL https://d.officecli.ai/install.sh | bash
  • Windows (PowerShell): irm https://d.officecli.ai/install.ps1 | iex

Verify with officecli --version (open a new terminal if PATH hasn't picked up). If install fails, download a binary from https://github.com/iOfficeAI/OfficeCLI/releases.

⚠️ Help-First Rule

This skill teaches the Morph workflow — when shape names must match, when to ghost, when the CLI auto-prefixes — not every command flag. When a prop name, enum, or preset is uncertain, consult help BEFORE guessing.

officecli help pptx slide           # authoritative for: transition, advanceTime, advanceClick, background
officecli help pptx transition      # transition / transitionDuration / transitionSpeed (Parent: slide)
officecli help pptx shape           # name, preset, x/y/width/height, fill, rotation, opacity, animation
officecli help pptx animation       # preset + trigger + duration values
officecli help pptx <element> --json  # machine-readable schema

Help reflects the installed CLI version. When skill and help disagree, help wins. Every --prop X= in this file is grep-verified against officecli help pptx <element>. Specific confirmations: transition=morph is a listed value on slide; advanceTime / advanceClick are valid. transition is a real element (officecli help pptx transition, Parent: slide, set/get) — it exposes transition, transitionDuration, and transitionSpeed. Set the transition with the high-level path set <slide> --prop transition=morph; tune speed/duration with the combined shorthand transition=morph-slow (or -fast, or transition=morph-<DUR_MS>). Speed/duration are set only via that shorthand on the transition prop, not as independent sub-props. Both round-trip on readback: transition=morph-slow/-fast reads back as transitionSpeed=slow/fast, and transition=morph-<DUR_MS> (e.g. morph-1500) reads back as transitionDuration=1500.

What ships with it

60 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.

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.

morph-ppt is a skill published in the GitHub repository iOfficeAI/OfficeCLI (29,674 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 169 tokens to every session and 13,220 once invoked, about $0.0008 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it C with 3 findings (downloads and executes remote code, makes network calls, runs shell commands). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
