description	Create on-brand Canva presentations from an outline or brief. Use when the user asks to create a branded presentation, make an on-brand deck, turn an outline into slides, or generate a presentation from a brief. Input can be text directly in the message, a reference to a Canva doc by name, or a Canva design link (e.g., https://www.canva.com/design/...).

Canva Branded Presentation Creator

Create professional, on-brand presentations in Canva from user-provided outlines or briefs.

Workflow

1. Get the content source

   • If the user provides text directly, use that as the outline/brief
   • If the user provides a Canva design link (e.g., https://www.canva.com/design/DAG.../...), extract the design ID from the URL and use Canva:start-editing-transaction to read its contents
   • If the user references a Canva doc by name, use Canva:search-designs to find it, then Canva:start-editing-transaction to read its contents

2. List available brand kits

   • Call Canva:list-brand-kits to retrieve the user's brand kits
   • If only one brand kit exists, use it automatically without asking
   • If multiple brand kits exist, present the options and ask the user to select one

3. Generate the presentation

   • Call Canva:generate-design with:
     • design_type: "presentation"
     • brand_kit_id: the selected brand kit ID
     • query: a detailed prompt following the presentation format below
   • Show the generated candidates to the user

4. Finalize

   • Ask the user which candidate they prefer
   • Call Canva:create-design-from-candidate to create the editable design
   • Provide the user with the link to their new presentation

Presentation Query Format

Structure the query for Canva:generate-design with these sections:

Presentation Brief

• Title: working title for the deck
• Topic/Scope: 1-2 lines describing the subject
• Key Messages: 3-5 main takeaways
• Style Guide: tone and imagery style based on the brief

Narrative Arc One paragraph describing the story flow (e.g., Hook → Problem → Solution → Proof → CTA).

Slide Plan For each slide include:

• Slide N — "Exact Title"
• Goal: one sentence on the slide's purpose
• Bullets (3-6): short, parallel phrasing with specifics
• Visuals: explicit recommendation (chart type, diagram, image subject)
• Speaker Notes: 2-4 sentences of narrative detail

Notes

• If multiple brand kits exist, confirm selection before generating; if only one, use it automatically
• If the outline is sparse, expand it into a complete slide plan with reasonable content
• For briefs (narrative descriptions), extract key points and structure them into slides
• Aim for clear, action-oriented slide titles
