Building and Revising Slides with the PowerPoint MCP
The goal is to be clear, be readable, and stay easy to revise. This skill provides cross-project practice and user defaults; it does not presuppose any project's content, model, palette, or page structure.
Read by current need
| When you need to | Read |
|---|---|
| Organize content, draw diagrams, define color coding, trim slides, review and handle rework | Design and Review |
| Call the MCP, handle fonts, equations, tables, grouping, and remote images | The relevant sections of MCP Recipes |
Do not preload every API or session history. If the task has no tables, equations, or models, do not add them just to satisfy a checklist.
1. Separate general rules, personal defaults, and this task's settings
Priority: this task's explicit user requirements → the template and conventions already confirmed for this deck → user default preferences → general advice. Content accuracy, operation authorization, and honest reporting of verification scope always hold. When the existing deck conflicts with itself, check first; do not keep an error just to preserve a style.
Read the existing material first and form a short task brief: goal and audience, language, target file and scope, evidence sources, style and fonts, color-to-meaning mapping, operation permissions. Keep it as an internal note; do not make the user re-enter what they already gave you.
