What it does

Marp Export is an agent skill from brycewang-stanford/Auto-Empirical-Research-Skills. Export Marp slide markdown files to PDF (default), HTML, PPTX, or PNG. Handles theme loading, Chrome/Chromium detection for PDF export, and batch conversion. Trigger when user says "export slides", "convert marp to pdf", "marp export", "slides to pdf", "slides to html", "导出slides", "slides转pdf", "导出演示文稿".

Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Documents & Office, covering Slides and decks. It works with Microsoft PowerPoint. The repository describes itself as: 🔬 A curated collection of 23,000+ agent skills for empirical research across 8 social science disciplines. | 精选 23,000+ AI Agent 技能库,覆盖8大社会科学学科的实证研究。CoPaper.AI…

When your agent uses it

  • User says export slides
  • Convert marp to pdf

Example prompts

  • “export slides”
  • “convert marp to pdf”
  • “marp export”
  • “/marp-export”

Requirements

  • Node.js
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Bash, Glob, Grep

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Locate Input File
  2. Theme Directory
  3. Detect Chrome/Chromium (for PDF/PPTX)
  4. Export
  5. Verify & Report

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9fa87d8. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Read
    • Bash
    • Glob
    • Grep

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • npx

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npx, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Marp Export loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 80 tokens; SKILL.md has 263 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~80
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.2k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

  • NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md
    allowed-tools: Read, Bash, Glob, Grep

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 263 words (~1,183 tokens).

“Export existing Marp markdown files to PDF (default), HTML, PPTX, or PNG.”
