The prompt

What happened
Before touching thepptx skill, the model first explored the documentation. It opened the skill’s reference files (Explored 3 view) to learn the API, then committed to a design system before generating any slides:
Coffee-inspired warm palette — deep espresso (#2C1810) for dark backgrounds, warm cream (#F5E6D3), caramel/amber (#C4883F) as the accent, and warm off-white (#FFF8F0). I’ll use Georgia for headings and Arial for body text, with clean geometric shapes and diagonal accents.

pptx skill ships an html2pptx library), validated the OOXML, and assembled the final deck.
The total tool-call profile for this run was 11 bash_tool calls, 9 create_file calls, and 2 str_replace edits — the model worked through the deck slide by slide, validating each one before moving on.
The output


- Real KPI cards (1,200 active users · 4.8★ rating · 92% WAU) instead of bulleted text.
- A real bar chart showing month-over-month growth, generated from the prompt’s “1,200 beta users” with synthesized timeline.
- The palette is consistent across all six slides — espresso, caramel, cream, off-white.
Why it works
Three platform features come together here:- The
pptxskill gives the model a high-level API for building decks (slide layouts, themes, html2pptx) instead of forcing it to write raw OOXML by hand. - The terminal lets it run a validation step (
Command completed... built cleanly with zero validation errors) before claiming the file is ready. - File preview in the right-hand panel means the user can verify the output without leaving the chat.
