Headless PowerPoint Author
Generates professional PowerPoint presentations as file artifacts in headless agent environments.
The pptx-author skill enables Claude to programmatically create .pptx files without requiring a live Microsoft PowerPoint application. By leveraging Python scripts and the python-pptx library, it allows managed agents to produce high-quality slide decks—complete with tables, charts, and formatted text—directly into a project's output directory. It is specifically designed for automated workflows where a user is not actively driving the UI, ensuring consistency through the use of company templates and strict data-to-model traceability for every figure included in the deck.
