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-mcp 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 16d 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 MCP

Use this skill only for tasks performed through the configured PowerPoint MCP server. For general presentation design, use the optional powerpoint-deck-design skill. Tool schemas advertised by the live server define the available actions and arguments; do not rely on a copied command catalog.

Safe editing loop

  1. Check the live tool descriptions. Use a {domain}_read tool when it provides the inspection action you need.
  2. Create or open a presentation once. Pass the returned presentation_session_id to later calls; do not open a file a second time after create.
  3. Indices for slides, shapes, rows, and columns start at 1.
  4. Export and inspect images after visual changes. Before delivery, run the accessibility audit and close with save: true when the user asked to keep the changes.
  5. Close returns before PowerPoint finishes its background cleanup; do not wait for its process to exit.

The server requires Windows and desktop PowerPoint; it is not a headless or cross-platform converter. See the workflow guide and behavioral rules for edge cases.

Files

What ships with it

2 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.
