What it does

Slides Grab Export is an agent skill from NomaDamas/slides-grab. Stage 3 conversion skill usable in Codex and Claude Code. Convert approved HTML slides to PDF or per-slide PNG reliably, and to experimental / unstable PPTX/Figma outputs on a best-effort basis.

Its SKILL.md is about 1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 5 other files, including reference files (for example `references/export-rules.md`, `references/html2pptx.md` and `references/ooxml.md`).

It sits in Documents & Office, covering Slides and decks. It works with Microsoft PowerPoint and Figma. The repository describes itself as: Best harness + editor + linter for generating slides in Claude Code / Codex - Claude Design Open Source Alternative. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Slides and decks

Example prompts

  • “/slides-grab-export”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Confirm user approval for conversion and that the Stage 2 design gate passed with verdict Proceed. If any Critical design-gate finding is…
  2. Pick the right primary target
  3. When per-slide raster output is needed (card news, social posts, thumbnails)
  4. If the user also wants a PDF deck
  5. For decks with Chart.js or other charts, confirm slides-grab validate --slides-dir passes without empty-canvas, then build/open…
  6. If the user wants PPTX (experimental / unstable)
  7. If the user wants Figma-importable PPTX (experimental / unstable)
  8. Report success/failure with actionable errors.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 49bdaed. 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

    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 Grab Export loads about 1k tokens when it runs, and up to ~10k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 53 tokens; SKILL.md has 464 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~53
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~10k

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.

Convert slides and run conversion checks

slides-grab Export Skill

Use this only after the user approves design output and the Stage 2 design gate verdict is Proceed (zero unresolved Critical findings — see ../slides-grab-design/references/design-gate.md). PDF, PPTX, and Figma exports require a fresh slides-grab design-gate Proceed receipt for the current slide files.

Goal

Convert reviewed slide HTML into PDF or per-slide PNG reliably, and into experimental / unstable PPTX/Figma outputs on a best-effort basis.

Inputs

  • Approved <slides-dir>/slide-*.html
  • Optional output path settings

Outputs

  • Presentation artifact (.pdf, .png per slide, or .pptx)

Workflow

  1. Confirm user approval for conversion and that the Stage 2 design gate passed with verdict Proceed. If any Critical design-gate finding is still unresolved, refuse to export — return to Stage 2, fix the Critical issue, re-run the gate, record Proceed with slides-grab design-gate, and only then convert.
  2. Pick the right primary target:
    • Card-news / Instagram-style decks → slides-grab png --slides-dir <path> --slide-mode card-news --resolution 2160p (see slides-grab-card-news).
    • Widescreen slide decks → slides-grab pdf --slides-dir <path> --output <name>.pdf.
  3. When per-slide raster output is needed (card news, social posts, thumbnails):
    • slides-grab png --slides-dir <path> --output-dir <path>/out-png --resolution 2160p
    • Add --slide-mode card-news for 1:1 cards.
  4. If the user also wants a PDF deck:
    • slides-grab pdf --slides-dir <path> --output <name>.pdf
    • Add --slide-mode card-news when the deck is square.
  5. For decks with Chart.js or other <canvas> charts, confirm slides-grab validate --slides-dir <path> passes without empty-canvas, then build/open viewer.html once before export. Chart.js charts should use disabled animation so PDF/PNG capture sees the final painted state.
  6. If the user wants PPTX (experimental / unstable):
    • Default visual-fidelity export: slides-grab convert --slides-dir <path> --output <name>.pptx --engine raster
    • Editable-text export: slides-grab convert --slides-dir <path> --output <name>-editable.pptx --engine text
    • --resolution can only be used with the raster engine. The text engine requires semantic text tags, rasterizes canvas/SVG visuals, and may reject unsupported HTML/CSS.
  7. If the user wants Figma-importable PPTX (experimental / unstable):
    • slides-grab figma --slides-dir <path> --output <name>-figma.pptx
  8. Report success/failure with actionable errors.

Rules

  • Do not export while any Critical design-gate finding is unresolved (../slides-grab-design/references/design-gate.md). The design gate is a hard precondition for this stage, and slides-grab pdf, slides-grab convert, and slides-grab figma block if the latest receipt is missing or stale.
  • Do not modify slide content during conversion stage unless explicitly requested.
  • If conversion fails, diagnose and fix root causes in source HTML/CSS.
  • For chart-heavy decks, treat a blank exported chart as a source rendering bug first: re-run validation, inspect empty-canvas, and verify the same slide in viewer.html before retrying PDF/PNG/PPTX export.
  • Always tell the user that PPTX and Figma export are experimental / unstable and may require manual cleanup.
  • Use the packaged CLI and bundled references only; do not depend on unpublished agent-specific files.
