pptx-review

pptx-review is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from matingai/crab. It costs 38 tokens per session (457 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A tool for inspecting and planning changes to existing PowerPoint (.pptx) presentations, with limited support for creating or modifying files directly.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to summarize a presentation, find weak slides, plan revisions, or create a new .pptx with Python when a PowerPoint file is specifically required.
Why use it?
It turns a slide deck into readable titles, bullets, and structure so you can review it without manually checking every slide.

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-review 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 5d ago.

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 Review

Use this skill when the user wants to inspect, summarize, plan, or modify an existing .pptx presentation.

Default Review Workflow

  1. Call office_inspect to confirm the file is .pptx and read capability boundaries.
  2. Call office_preview for slide titles and extracted bullets.
  3. Call office_extract_ir when you need stable slide ids and a fuller structured view.
  4. Summarize the deck, identify weak slides, or propose revisions from the extracted structure.

Current V1 Limitation

Built-in .pptx support is read-only. Do not pretend that office_apply_ops exists for presentations.

Write Workflow

If the user needs a new deck, prefer slides/slidev-deck first unless the .pptx file itself is the required authoring format.

If the user still needs direct .pptx creation or modification, prefer write_file + execute_code with python-pptx.

Use a script when the task involves:

  • creating a new deck from notes or markdown
  • replacing titles or bullet lists
  • generating status, report, or pitch slides
  • producing a deliverable .pptx instead of only an edit plan

When using a script:

  • save to a new .pptx path
  • keep the slide structure explicit: title plus bullet content or simple content blocks
  • print the output path and slide count
  • be clear that exact themes, animations, notes, and advanced layout geometry may still need manual polish

See PPTX.md for a script pattern.

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.
