Porting Notes

• This is a Windows COM adaptation of Anthropic's pptx skill for Codex.
• The upstream skill centers on unpack/XML workflows, template editing guidance, and non-COM presentation tooling.
• This port changes the preferred execution path to PowerShell wrappers around Microsoft PowerPoint COM for inspection, export, placeholder replacement, rendering, and targeted edits, while preserving OOXML utilities as fallback tools.
• It adds no-template design guidance so Codex can choose layout systems, palettes, visual motifs, screenshot review criteria, and repair loops when a user does not provide a template.
• It remains Windows-only for high-fidelity rendering because the preferred workflow depends on a local Microsoft PowerPoint desktop installation and COM automation.
