What it does
Slides is an agent skill from JetBrains/skills, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Create and edit presentation slide decks (.pptx) with PptxGenJS and render/validation utilities. Use when tasks involve building a new PowerPoint deck, recreating slides from screenshots/PDFs/reference decks, modifying slide content while preserving editable output, adding charts/diagrams/visuals, or diagnosing layout issues such as overflow, overlaps, and font substitution.
Its SKILL.md is about 950 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 11 other files, including scripts and assets (for example `agents/openai.yaml`, `scripts/create_montage.py` and `scripts/detect_font.py`).
It sits in Documents & Office, covering Slides and decks and PowerPoint presentations. It works with Microsoft PowerPoint and python-pptx. The repository describes itself as: Curated agent skills collection verified by JetBrains. The licence is Apache-2.0.
When your agent uses it
- Tasks involve building a new PowerPoint deck
- Recreating slides from screenshots/PDFs/reference decks
- Modifying slide content while preserving editable output
- Adding charts/diagrams/visuals
Example prompts
- “/slides”
Requirements
- Python 3
Workflow steps
6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Inspect the request and determine whether you are creating a new deck, recreating an existing deck, or editing one.
- Set the slide size up front. Default to 16:9 (LAYOUT_WIDE) unless the source material clearly uses another aspect ratio.
- Build the deck in JavaScript with PptxGenJS, an explicit theme font, stable spacing, and editable PowerPoint-native elements when practical.
- Run the bundled scripts from this skill directory or copy the needed ones into the task workspace. Render the result with…
- Run slides_test.py for overflow checks when slide edges are tight or the deck is dense.
- Deliver the .pptx, the authoring .js, and any generated assets that are required to rebuild the deck.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit e0f258b. 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
Ships 4 files in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
python3
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
Slides loads about 953 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 97 tokens; SKILL.md has 397 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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

Slides
Overview
Use PptxGenJS for slide authoring. Do not use python-pptx for deck generation unless the task is inspection-only; keep editable output in JavaScript and deliver both the .pptx and the source .js.
Keep work in a task-local directory. Only copy final artifacts to the requested destination after rendering and validation pass.
Bundled Resources
scripts/render_slides.py: Rasterize a.pptxor.pdfto per-slide PNGs.scripts/slides_test.py: Detect content that overflows the slide canvas.scripts/create_montage.py: Build a contact-sheet style montage of rendered slides.scripts/detect_font.py: Report missing or substituted fonts as LibreOffice resolves them.
Workflow
- Inspect the request and determine whether you are creating a new deck, recreating an existing deck, or editing one.
- Set the slide size up front. Default to 16:9 (
LAYOUT_WIDE) unless the source material clearly uses another aspect ratio. - Build the deck in JavaScript with PptxGenJS, an explicit theme font, stable spacing, and editable PowerPoint-native elements when practical.
- Run the bundled scripts from this skill directory or copy the needed ones into the task workspace. Render the result with
render_slides.py, review the PNGs, and fix layout issues before delivery. - Run
slides_test.pyfor overflow checks when slide edges are tight or the deck is dense. - Deliver the
.pptx, the authoring.js, and any generated assets that are required to rebuild the deck.

Authoring Rules
- Set theme fonts explicitly. Do not rely on PowerPoint defaults if typography matters.
- Size text boxes deliberately and verify by rendering; do not rely on PptxGenJS
fitorautoFitfor final layout. - Use bullet options, not literal
•characters. - Use explicit crop/contain calculations when placing images so aspect ratio and framing are intentional.
- Prefer native PowerPoint charts for simple bar/line/pie/histogram style visuals so reviewers can edit them later.
- For charts or diagrams that PptxGenJS cannot express well, render SVG externally and place the SVG in the slide.
- Fix all unintentional overlap and out-of-bounds issues before delivering. If an overlap is intentional, leave a short code comment near the relevant element.
Recreate Or Edit Existing Slides
- Render the source deck or reference PDF first so you can compare slide geometry visually.
- Match the original aspect ratio before rebuilding layout.
- Preserve editability where possible: text should stay text, and simple charts should stay native charts.
Validation Commands
Examples below assume you copied the needed scripts into the working directory. If not, invoke the same script paths relative to this skill folder.
