PPTX Deck Creation Builder

Create editable PowerPoint decks through a spec-first workflow. Treat the final inch-based JSON layout_tree as the source of truth. Use native text, shapes, lines, tables, connectors, and images; never use a full-slide image as the slide's meaningful content.

Non-negotiable rules

  • Keep reference decks read-only. Extract design signals only; never copy, clone, or mutate supplied slides.
  • Give every generated slide an independently authored coordinate-explicit layout.
  • Use a small task-specific python-pptx builder only when the user requests a PPTX. Do not add a bundled renderer or helper framework.
  • Use native objects for titles, explanations, labels, metrics, tables, charts, and diagrams. Images are supporting visuals only.
  • Do not invent missing brand, source, license, or accessibility facts. State the gap and request a decision.
  • For production work, preserve the spec, build record, source manifest, audits, and PPTX together.

Workflow

  1. Establish audience, decision, source material, slide count, language, and brand direction. If no narrative framework is supplied, ask the user to choose one.
  2. Prepare the narrative, source inventory, and design context.
  3. If a reference deck is supplied, analyze it read-only. Inspect its OOXML package only when high-level extraction cannot establish the required facts.
  4. Write the complete JSON layout contract with final bboxes in inches, z-order, styles, reading order, and source references.
  5. Select only approved supporting visuals. Preserve aspect ratio, provenance, and alt text.
  6. Build with a per-deck script if required, then audit the deck. Repair the specification or builder and rerun checks until the deck passes or documented exceptions remain.

Delivery

Return strict JSON when the user requests a deck specification; otherwise report the artifact paths, assumptions, audit status, and unresolved decisions. Use direct, plain business English and avoid placeholder content.

Alternatives

ReladrawWrite, render and edit diagrams in reladraw, a text diagram language where you say where things go, so the arrangement can be read back out of the source without looking at the picture. Use when asked to draw, diagram, sketch or visualize an architecture, a system, a data flow, a pipeline, a deployment, a directory layout, or the shape of a change or pull request; when reading or editing a .reladraw file; or when the user says "reladraw", "diagram this", "draw the architecture", "show me how these pieces fit". Use it in place of Mermaid, Graphviz, D2 or hand-drawn ASCII boxes whenever a node-and-line diagram is wanted and reladraw is installed. NOT for charts of data — bar, line, pie, scatter — and NOT for pictures that are not nodes and lines.Design & UI · Apache-2.0AstrologerCustom astrologer built in Gemini Gems.
