Ppt Template Creator

Meta-skill for turning PowerPoint templates into reusable skills, not for making presentations directly. The workflow is thorough: you feed it a .pptx template, it analyzes placeholder positions down to the inch, then generates a complete skill package with the template in assets/ and detailed SKILL.md instructions. The real value is in how it handles content boundaries. It teaches you to find the actual content start position by looking at OBJECT placeholders instead of just assuming content starts after the subtitle, which prevents overlapping with decorative borders. The generated skills include exact x/y coordinates for every placeholder and proper bullet hierarchy handling. If you're building presentation tools or need to template-ize corporate decks, this gives you the scaffolding.

PPT Template Creator

This skill creates SKILLS, not presentations. Use this when a user wants to turn their PowerPoint template into a reusable skill that can generate presentations later. If the user just wants to create a presentation, use the pptx skill instead.

The generated skill includes:

  • assets/template.pptx - the template file
  • SKILL.md - complete instructions (no reference to this meta skill needed)

For general skill-building best practices, refer to the skill-creator skill. This skill focuses on PPT-specific patterns.

Workflow

  1. User provides template (.pptx or .potx)
  2. Analyze template - extract layouts, placeholders, dimensions
  3. Initialize skill - use the skill-creator skill to set up the skill structure
  4. Add template - copy .pptx to assets/template.pptx
  5. Write SKILL.md - follow template below with PPT-specific details
  6. Create example - generate sample presentation to validate
  7. Package - use the skill-creator skill to package into a .skill file

Step 2: Analyze Template

CRITICAL: Extract precise placeholder positions - this determines content area boundaries.
