Skill0 starsChanged 5 days agoMITView on GitHub
Use this skill any time a .pptx file is involved in any way — as input, output, or both. This includes creating slide decks, pitch decks, or presentations; reading, parsing, or extracting text from any .pptx file (even if the extracted content will be used elsewhere, like in an email or summary); editing, modifying, or updating existing presentations; combining or splitting slide files; working with templates, layouts, speaker notes, or comments. Trigger whenever the user mentions 'deck', 'slides', 'presentation', or references a .pptx filename, regardless of what they plan to do with the content afterward. If a .pptx file needs to be opened, created, or touched, use this skill.

SeifBenayedSkillfile-reading
Use this skill when a file has been uploaded but its content is NOT in your context — only its path at /mnt/user-data/uploads/ is listed in an uploaded_files block. This skill is a router: it tells you which tool to use for each file type (pdf, docx, xlsx, csv, json, images, archives, ebooks) so you read the right amount the right way instead of blindly running cat on a binary. Triggers: any mention of /mnt/user-data/uploads/, an uploaded_files section, a file_path tag, or a user asking about an uploaded file you have not yet read. Do NOT use this skill if the file content is already visible in your context inside a documents block — you already have it.

hfzarslanSkillcontext7-efficient
Token-efficient library documentation fetcher using Context7 MCP with 86.8% token savings through intelligent shell pipeline filtering. Fetches code examples, API references, and best practices for JavaScript, Python, Go, Rust, and other libraries. Use when users ask about library documentation, need code examples, want API usage patterns, are learning a new framework, need syntax reference, or troubleshooting with library-specific information. Triggers include questions like "Show me React hooks", "How do I use Prisma", "What's the Next.js routing syntax", or any request for library/framework documentation.

SeifBenayedSkillpdf-reading
Use this skill when you need to read, inspect, or extract content from PDF files — especially when file content is NOT in your context and you need to read it from disk. Covers content inventory, text extraction, page rasterization for visual inspection, embedded image/attachment/table/form-field extraction, and choosing the right reading strategy for different document types (text-heavy, scanned, slide-decks, forms, data-heavy). Do NOT use this skill for PDF creation, form filling, merging, splitting, watermarking, or encryption — use the pdf skill instead.

How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
2 rules. 0 are common, 0 are distinctive, and 2 are very specific to this project.
0
Common
Most of the 189 edited versions we read keep these.
0
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
2
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Very specific: line 15
QA is required — do at least one fix-and-verify cycle: before declaring success. Your first render is almost never correct.
- Very specific: line 16
When in doubt, use the editing workflow: If any .pptx file is attached or mentioned, edit the template directly.
“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 189 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

PPTX Skill
Three workflows: raw XML unpack/edit/pack for templates, PptxGenJS for de novo decks, and the python-pptx structured programmatic tooling (the latter merged in from the former powerpoint skill). Pick the workflow that matches the task; run QA before shipping any deck.
Global rules
- QA is required — do at least one fix-and-verify cycle before declaring success. Your first render is almost never correct; approach QA as a bug hunt, not a confirmation step. Full checklist in
references/qa.md. - When in doubt, use the editing workflow. If any
.pptxfile is attached or mentioned, edit the template directly; the creating workflow is only for when no existing presentation exists at all. The python-pptx workflow is for structured, script-driven operations rather than per-slide XML editing. - Match the template's style exactly — colors, fonts, backgrounds, and layout relationships; do not adapt the template's palette or typography to the topic's subject matter.
Routing
| Step | Reference | Purpose |
| Workflow selection + reading + image conversion + dependencies | references/workflow-selection.md | Which workflow to use per situation, content-reading commands, slide-to-image conversion, and install dependencies. |
Edit an attached .pptx template | references/editing.md | Raw XML unpack/edit/pack workflow: inspect, replace text/media, repack. |
| Create a de novo deck | references/creating.md | PptxGenJS template-based creation from scratch. |
| Structured python-pptx operations | references/python-pptx.md | Create from JSON spec, read-back, targeted text/chart/image edits, template fill, and slide PNG rendering. |
| Image handling rules | references/images.md | Aspect-ratio rule, sources, options, sizing modes, and dimension calculations. |
| QA checklist | references/qa.md | Overlap check/auto-fix, content QA, automated checks, visual QA, and the fix-and-verify loop. |
| Edge-case pitfalls | references/pitfalls.md | Run splitting, chart duplication limits, XML-level reordering, footer/slide-number constraints, hyperlinks, template sizing, layout indexes, UTF-8 specs. |

Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
