Dashi PPT Skill · Web Decks / Per-Page Console / Editable PPTX Export

🌏 中文版：README.md

A PPT skill built for people who actually present at work. Hand a document to your AI agent and get back a deck where every page carries its own editing console — fix whatever you don't like right in the browser, then export a real, editable PPTX with one click.

• 12 visual themes
• 1,020 layout pages
• 8,576 tunable controls

12 Built-in Visual Themes

The skill shows you theme previews to pick from, and you can ask the agent to restyle the whole deck at any time. Each preview below shows 4 body layouts (charts, analysis frameworks, cards, table of contents, etc.) drawn from that theme's own layout library — all really rendered by this skill, not mockups:

theme01	theme02
theme03	theme04
theme05	theme06
theme07	theme08
theme09	theme10
theme11	theme12

Get Started in 30 Seconds

One command to install or update (it detects common skills directories automatically, installs into every one it finds, and keeps already-installed dependencies):

npx dashi-ppt-skill@latest

Use --dir <path> to target a specific skills directory (e.g. --dir ~/.claude/skills). Install and update are the same command — re-running it updates in place.

Or hand this to your AI agent:

Install the dashi-ppt skill for me: npx dashi-ppt-skill@latest

Requirements: Node.js 20+ and npm; exporting PPTX / PDF requires Chrome / Chromium / Edge installed locally.

What You Get

• 12 themes covering a wide range of presentation scenarios and styles
• 1,020 layouts: each theme has its own page structures and visual language, across 20 page roles (cover, TOC, metrics, trends, comparison, flow, risks, ending…)
• Charts & analysis frameworks: radar, waterfall, treemap, funnel, heatmap, Sankey, Gantt — plus SWOT, Porter's Five Forces, PEST, Business Model Canvas, Double Diamond and more as ready-made layouts
• A console on every page: sliders, toggles, dropdowns — switch layouts, tune module counts, change palettes, shift the page's emphasis
• Editable text: click any text to edit in place
• Media replacement: click or drag to fill media slots; text-only source material automatically reserves image placeholders
• One-click export: offline HTML bundle / PDF / genuinely editable PPTX

Good Fit / Not a Fit

Good fit: industry research / funding reviews / competitive analysis / trend reports / project updates / proposals / pitch decks / internal training — anything that needs a structurally complete, visually consistent deck you can keep editing.

Not a fit: pixel-by-pixel hand-crafted visual design.

HTML and Export

• Built for agents: HTML is something agents can read, modify, and validate directly; every page is "layout + copy fields"
• More expressive: entrance animations, page transitions, interactive controls, light/dark switching
• The output is the editor: what you get is a web-based deck editor — flip, edit text, swap images, adjust layouts, ready the moment it opens
• PPTX export: one click produces a real PPTX — reconstructed node by node, text stays editable

Platform Support

The table lists platforms we have actually tested — it is not an exhaustive list.

Platform	Status	Notes
Claude Code	Supported
Codex	Supported	Can call image generation to fill visuals
Doubao	Supported	Requires office mode
Marvis / Workbuddy / Dumate / Qclaw	Supported	Drop the skill anywhere and point them at SKILL.md
Cursor / other local agents	Usable	Needs file read/write and shell access
Plain web chatbots	Not recommended	The generator needs a local Node.js environment

How It Works

Throw in whatever document you have, say you want a deck, and get a complete deck minutes later:

1. Describe the ask — topic, audience, page count, the conclusions to highlight
2. Pick a style — the skill shows previews of the 12 themes; confirm whether you need images / video
3. Auto-drafting — the skill structures your content and designs the deck around it
4. Edit as you go — text, images, module counts, palettes; every change auto-saves
5. Deliver — ask the agent to restyle or fine-tune; export to whatever format you need

Editing After Generation

How a deck edits after generation matters more than the generation itself.

Design controls: every page ships with a console — 20+ dimensions of editing room covering content, layout, module counts, page emphasis, preset palettes, and transitions. Text: click any text to edit. Image / video slots: click or drag to replace; uploads are compressed automatically.

Click any text to edit in place	Add images

Console edits: layout, module count, charts, palettes

Drag the sliders on the right-hand console to change how many modules a page shows; the page's logical emphasis can be shifted the same way to match your talk track.

Drag sliders to add/remove modules	Switch layouts

Switch charts	Palette switching within a theme

Page transitions

9 transition styles to choose from:

And more

• The thumbnail rail on the left supports drag-to-reorder; pages can be skipped / deleted / duplicated
• Top bar: one-click presentation mode, light/dark switching, reset-all

Chart layouts:

Analysis frameworks and specialist layouts:

High-frequency layouts — TOC, tables, number posters, image-and-text:

Export

You can also skip the HTML intermediate entirely — tell the agent "use this skill to produce a PPT file" and go from prompt to PPTX in one step.

Command-line export:

npm --prefix <project-dir> run export:pptx -- <deck-output-dir>/ppt out.pptx
npm --prefix <project-dir> run export:pdf  -- <deck-output-dir>/ppt

FAQ

Can it export an editable PPTX?

Yes. PPT can't carry every capability HTML has, but we preserve as much editability as possible.

How many tokens does a deck cost?

A 10-page deck measures around 100k tokens (varies with document length and editing rounds). Roughly 10 decks per Codex 5-hour quota window.

Can I customize …?

Custom styling is intentionally limited to a defined range: stable output matters more than free-form color picking.

Does it need the network? Is my content safe?

Zero content upload: your documents and deck content never leave your machine — generation, editing, and export all run locally, and the output opens offline. Only two things touch the network: npm dependency installation on first generation, and a silent version check after tasks complete (it only fetches the latest version number, nothing is uploaded). The local preview server is reachable within your LAN for viewing only; export endpoints are local-only.

PPTX export fails?

Exporting PPTX / PDF requires a local Chrome / Chromium / Edge (point to it with the CHROME_PATH environment variable if needed).
