What it does
Ppt Generation is an agent skill from HezaoHezao/poirot. Generate PPTX presentations from slide plan + content.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.3k 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 and PowerPoint presentations. It works with Microsoft PowerPoint. The repository describes itself as: Poirot is a deep research agent kernel built for those who care about how agents are architected. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Tasks that involve Slides and decks
- Tasks that involve PowerPoint presentations
Example prompts
- “/ppt-generation”
Requirements
- Python 3
- Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): bash, write_file, read_file, present_files
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 86bf279. 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:
bashwrite_fileread_filepresent_files
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
pippython3
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use pip, 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
Ppt Generation loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 17 tokens; SKILL.md has 319 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.

PPT Generation
Overview
Generate professional PowerPoint presentations. Plan the structure with a consistent visual style, generate slide content, and compose into a PPTX file.
Poirot note: The original deer-flow skill uses AI image-generation per slide. Poirot may not have image-generation available. This version generates text-based slides with
python-pptx. Install:pip install python-pptx.
When to Use
- User requests to generate, create, or make presentations (PPT/PPTX)
- User wants slides for a topic with structured content
- User needs a visual presentation from research findings
Presentation Styles
| Style | Description | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| dark-premium | Black bg, luminous accents, luxury aesthetic | Executive presentations |
| gradient-modern | Bold mesh gradients, contemporary typography | Startups, brand launches |
| minimal-swiss | Grid-based, bold negative space, timeless | Consulting, architecture |
| keynote | Apple-inspired, bold typography, dramatic imagery | Keynotes, product reveals |
| editorial | Magazine-quality layouts, sophisticated typography | Annual reports, thought leadership |
Workflow
Step 1: Understand Requirements
- Topic/subject
- Number of slides (default: 5-10)
- Style: dark-premium / gradient-modern / minimal-swiss / keynote / editorial
- Aspect ratio: 16:9 (standard) or 4:3
- Content outline: key points per slide
Step 2: Research (if needed)
Use deep-research skill to gather content for the presentation.
Step 3: Create Presentation Plan
{
"title": "Presentation Title",
"style": "dark-premium",
"slides": [
{"number": 1, "type": "title", "title": "...", "subtitle": "..."},
{"number": 2, "type": "content", "title": "...", "bullets": ["...", "..."]},
{"number": 3, "type": "chart", "title": "...", "data": {...}},
{"number": 4, "type": "section", "title": "..."},
{"number": 5, "type": "content", "title": "...", "bullets": ["...", "..."]},
{"number": 6, "type": "closing", "title": "Thank You", "subtitle": "..."}
]
}Step 4: Generate PPTX
python3 -c "
from pptx import Presentation
from pptx.util import Inches, Pt, Emu
from pptx.dml.color import RGBColor
from pptx.enum.text import PP_ALIGN

TEXT_COLOR = RGBColor(0xFF, 0xFF, 0xFF)
ACCENT_COLOR = RGBColor(0x00, 0xD9, 0xFF)
def add_slide(prs, layout_idx=6): # 6 = blank
slide = prs.slides.add_slide(prs.slide_layouts[layout_idx])
bg = slide.background

fill.solid()
fill.fore_color.rgb = BG_COLOR

p.text = text
p.font.size = Pt(size)
p.font.color.rgb = color

# Slide 1: Title

# Slide 2: Content with bullets
slide = add_slide(prs)
add_text(slide, 'Key Points', 1, 0.5, 11, 1, size=36, bold=True)
for i, bullet in enumerate(['Point one', 'Point two', 'Point three']):

# Slide 3: Section divider
slide = add_slide(prs)
add_text(slide, 'Section Title', 1, 3, 11, 1.5, size=40, bold=True, color=ACCENT_COLOR)
# Save

print('Saved to .poirot/outputs/presentation.pptx')
"Step 5: Present
present_files([".poirot/outputs/presentation.pptx"])Slide Types
| Type | Content | Layout |
|---|---|---|
| title | Title + subtitle | Centered, large font |
| content | Title + bullets | Left-aligned, 3-5 bullets |
| section | Section title only | Centered, accent color |
| chart | Title + chart image | Chart from chart-visualization skill |
| quote | Large quote + attribution | Centered, italic |
| closing | Thank you + contact | Centered |
Pitfalls
- Too much text per slide: max 5-6 bullets, max 2 lines each. Slides are visual aids, not documents.
- Font sizes too small: title ≥36pt, body ≥24pt. If text doesn't fit, split into more slides.
- Inconsistent style: all slides must use the same color palette, font sizes, and layout patterns.
- No visual hierarchy: title > section headers > bullets > footnotes. Use size + weight + color to establish hierarchy.
- python-pptx not installed:
pip install python-pptxfirst. - Image slides: if you need chart images, generate them first with the
chart-visualizationskill, then embed asslide.shapes.add_picture().
