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

powerpoint-cli 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 13d 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

PowerPoint CLI

Use the installed PowerPoint CLI plugin wrapper when available; otherwise use the installed pptcli command. Start with pptcli --help, then pptcli <group> --help for the current commands and options. The live help is the source of truth; this skill does not copy the command catalog.

For editing, create or open one session and reuse the returned sessionId with later commands. Slide, shape, row, and column indexes start at 1. Close with session close --save only when the user wants to keep the changes. For visual edits, export images and inspect them before saving.

Use the optional powerpoint-deck-design skill only when creating or visually redesigning a deck. See the CLI guide and workflow guide.

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.
