What it does

Canva Branded Presentation is an agent skill from canva-sdks/canva-skills. Create on-brand Canva presentations from an outline or brief. Use when the user asks to create a branded presentation, make an on-brand deck, turn an outline into slides, or generate a presentation from a brief. Input can be text directly in the message, a Canva design ID, a reference to a Canva doc by name, or a Canva design link (e.g., https://www.canva.com/design/...).

Its SKILL.md is about 770 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 Canva. The repository describes itself as: Ready-to-use Canva Skills that improve creative workflows using the Canva Connector. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • The user asks to create a branded presentation
  • Make an on-brand deck
  • Turn an outline into slides
  • Generate a presentation from a brief

Example prompts

  • “/canva-branded-presentation”

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Get the content source
  2. List available brand kits
  3. Generate the presentation
  4. Finalize

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b56291e. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

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

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • canva.com

    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

Canva Branded Presentation loads about 770 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 100 tokens; SKILL.md has 353 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~100
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~770

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 passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

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.

Create on-brand Canva presentations from an outline or brief. Use when the user asks to create a branded presentation, make an on-brand deck, turn an outline into slides, or generate a presentation from a brief. Input can be text directly in the message, a Canva design ID, a reference to a Canva doc by name, or a Canva design link (e.g., https://www.canva.com/design/...).

Canva Branded Presentation Creator

Create professional, on-brand presentations in Canva from user-provided outlines or briefs.

Workflow

  1. Get the content source

    • If the user provides text directly, use that as the outline/brief
    • If the user provides a Canva design ID directly (typically starts with D, e.g. DABcd1234ef), use it as design_id with Canva:start-editing-transaction to read its contents; do not use Canva:search-designs for a raw ID
    • If the user provides a Canva design link (e.g., https://www.canva.com/design/DAG.../...), extract the design ID from the URL and use Canva:start-editing-transaction to read its contents
    • If the user references a Canva doc by name, use Canva:search-designs to find it, then Canva:start-editing-transaction to read its contents

  2. List available brand kits

    • Call Canva:list-brand-kits to retrieve the user's brand kits
    • If only one brand kit exists, use it automatically without asking
    • If multiple brand kits exist, present the options and ask the user to select one

  3. Generate the presentation

    • Call Canva:generate-design with:
      • design_type: "presentation"
      • brand_kit_id: the selected brand kit ID
      • query: a detailed prompt following the presentation format below
    • Show the generated candidates to the user

  4. Finalize

    • Ask the user which candidate they prefer
    • Call Canva:create-design-from-candidate to create the editable design
    • Provide the user with the link to their new presentation
Show full SKILL.md (148 more words)Show less

Presentation Query Format

Structure the query for Canva:generate-design with these sections:

Presentation Brief

  • Title: working title for the deck
  • Topic/Scope: 1-2 lines describing the subject
  • Key Messages: 3-5 main takeaways
  • Style Guide: tone and imagery style based on the brief

Narrative Arc One paragraph describing the story flow (e.g., Hook → Problem → Solution → Proof → CTA).

Slide Plan For each slide include:

  • Slide N — "Exact Title"
  • Goal: one sentence on the slide's purpose
  • Bullets (3-6): short, parallel phrasing with specifics
  • Visuals: explicit recommendation (chart type, diagram, image subject)
  • Speaker Notes: 2-4 sentences of narrative detail

Notes

  • If multiple brand kits exist, confirm selection before generating; if only one, use it automatically
  • If the outline is sparse, expand it into a complete slide plan with reasonable content
  • For briefs (narrative descriptions), extract key points and structure them into slides
  • Aim for clear, action-oriented slide titles
  • Autofill requires a Canva Enterprise plan
