What it does
Ppt Workflow Location is an agent skill from HKUDS/OpenSpace. Generate PowerPoint files using shellagent and locate them in nested workspace directories
Its SKILL.md is about 770 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file.
It sits in Documents & Office, covering PowerPoint presentations. It works with Microsoft PowerPoint. The repository describes itself as: "OpenSpace: The Skill Management Layer for AI Agents" -- https://open-space.cloud/. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Tasks that involve PowerPoint presentations
Example prompts
- “/ppt-workflow-location”
Workflow steps
4 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 3827781. 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 (its code samples are bash).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
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 Workflow Location loads about 771 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 28 tokens; SKILL.md has 221 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.

PowerPoint Generation and Location Workflow
When to Use This Skill
Use this workflow when:
- Direct document generation tools fail or are unavailable
- You need to create PowerPoint presentations with specific slide content and structure
- Output files may be created in unexpected nested directories within the workspace
Step 1: Generate PowerPoint via shell_agent
Delegate the PowerPoint creation task to shell_agent with clear specifications:
Use shell_agent to create a PowerPoint presentation with:
- Specify the exact number of slides needed
- Define the content/topic for each slide
- Request the file be saved with a clear filename (e.g., presentation.pptx)
- Ask the agent to confirm the file path after creationExample task description:
Create a PowerPoint presentation with 10 slides covering [topic]. Each slide should have a title and bullet points. Save it as presentation.pptx and tell me the full file path.Step 2: Locate the Output File
PowerPoint files created by shell_agent may be in nested workspace directories. Use the find command to locate them:
# Find all .pptx files in the workspace
find . -name "*.pptx" -type f
# Or search for a specific filename
find . -name "presentation.pptx" -type fStep 3: Copy to Working Directory
Once located, copy the file to your working directory:
# Copy the found file to current directory
cp /path/to/found/presentation.pptx .
# Or move it if you prefer
mv /path/to/found/presentation.pptx .Step 4: Verify the File
Confirm the file exists and is accessible:
# List the file with details
ls -la presentation.pptx
# Check file size to ensure it's not empty
file presentation.pptxCommon Pitfalls
- Don't assume the file is in the current directory - shell_agent may create files in subdirectories
- Don't skip the find step - always verify the file location before proceeding
- Check file size - ensure the PowerPoint file is not empty (0 bytes)
- Request confirmation - ask shell_agent to report the file path after creation
Example Workflow
# Step 1: shell_agent creates the presentation (done via task delegation)
# Step 2: Find the created file
find . -name "*.pptx" -type f
# Output: ./workspace/task_123/output/presentation.pptx
# Step 3: Copy to working directory
cp ./workspace/task_123/output/presentation.pptx .
# Step 4: Verify
ls -la presentation.pptx
# Output: -rw-r--r-- 1 user user 45632 Jan 15 10:30 presentation.pptxTroubleshooting
| Problem | Solution |
|---|---|
| File not found with find | Search broader: find / -name "*.pptx" 2>/dev/null |
| File is 0 bytes | Re-run shell_agent task; ensure it completed successfully |
| Permission denied | Check directory permissions with ls -la on parent dirs |
| Multiple .pptx files found | Use more specific search: find . -name "*presentation*.pptx" |
