Instructions for creating, editing, and examining PowerPoint presentation files. A .pptx file is a packaged document containing slide text, layouts, images, and other presentation data.

Building or changing slides, reading presentation content, and working with layouts, comments, speaker notes, animations, and design elements.

It gives the agent workflows for extracting text and handling detailed presentation structure and formatting.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00062	$0.06252
Opus 5	$0.00031	$0.03126
Sonnet 5	$0.00012	$0.01250
Haiku 4.5	$0.00006	$0.00625

Security

Grade B, and why

pptx scanned grade B with 1 finding 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.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 13 executable files (ooxml/scripts/pack.py, ooxml/scripts/unpack.py, ooxml/scripts/validate.py, …), 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.

Asks for rootmediumPrivilege escalation

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

PPTX creation, editing, and analysis

Overview

A user may ask you to create, edit, or analyze the contents of a .pptx file. A .pptx file is essentially a ZIP archive containing XML files and other resources that you can read or edit. You have different tools and workflows available for different tasks.

Reading and analyzing content

Text extraction

If you just need to read the text contents of a presentation, you should convert the document to markdown:

# Convert document to markdown
python -m markitdown path-to-file.pptx

Raw XML access

You need raw XML access for: comments, speaker notes, slide layouts, animations, design elements, and complex formatting. For any of these features, you'll need to unpack a presentation and read its raw XML contents.

Unpacking a file

python ooxml/scripts/unpack.py <office_file> <output_dir>

Note: The unpack.py script is located at skills/pptx/ooxml/scripts/unpack.py relative to the project root. If the script doesn't exist at this path, use find . -name "unpack.py" to locate it.

Key file structures

ppt/presentation.xml - Main presentation metadata and slide references
ppt/slides/slide{N}.xml - Individual slide contents (slide1.xml, slide2.xml, etc.)
ppt/notesSlides/notesSlide{N}.xml - Speaker notes for each slide
ppt/comments/modernComment_*.xml - Comments for specific slides
ppt/slideLayouts/ - Layout templates for slides
ppt/slideMasters/ - Master slide templates
ppt/theme/ - Theme and styling information
ppt/media/ - Images and other media files

Typography and color extraction

When given an example design to emulate: Always analyze the presentation's typography and colors first using the methods below:

Read theme file: Check ppt/theme/theme1.xml for colors (<a:clrScheme>) and fonts (<a:fontScheme>)
Sample slide content: Examine ppt/slides/slide1.xml for actual font usage (<a:rPr>) and colors
Search for patterns: Use grep to find color (<a:solidFill>, <a:srgbClr>) and font references across all XML files

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.

pptx is a skill published in the GitHub repository sumulige/sumulige-claude (2 stars, last pushed 6mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 62 tokens to every session and 6,252 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (asks for root). It is 95% identical to pptx, differing in 3 lines, and is treated as a copy.
