STEP 2 of the PPTX-from-layouts pipeline. Write a slide deck in markdown using the [HINT: layout_name] system so each slide targets a real template layout, then lint it before rendering. Use when the user wants to "draft slides", "write a deck outline", "author presentation markdown", "add layout hints", or has a layout catalog from Step 1 and needs to turn content into slides. Pairs with pptx-profile (Step 1) and pptx-from-layouts (Step 3).

Generate and edit consultant-grade PowerPoint decks from markdown outlines using a template's real slide-master layouts (not text overlays). Use when the user wants to create slides/a deck/a presentation from an outline or brief, modify an existing .pptx, turn their own PowerPoint into a reusable template, or check a deck's quality. Triggers: "make a deck", "build a presentation", "slides for…", "use my company template", "fix slide N".

STEP 1 of the PPTX-from-layouts pipeline. Profile a PowerPoint template to discover its real slide-master layouts and emit a layout catalog + render config. Use when the user wants to "use my own PowerPoint template", "see what layouts my deck has", "onboard a template", "profile this pptx", or before authoring slides against a custom (non-Inner-Chapter) template. Pairs with pptx-author (Step 2) and pptx-from-layouts (Step 3).

Create, edit, analyze .pptx PowerPoint files. Use for presentations, slides, layouts, speaker notes, template modification, content extraction, slide generation.

Create and manipulate PowerPoint presentations programmatically. Build slide decks with layouts, shapes, charts, tables, and images. Generate data-driven presentations from templates.
