The presentation skill is one of four document skills in Anthropic's skills repository, covering creating, editing and reading .pptx and .potx files. Its SKILL.md says to create decks with a pptxgenjs script, edit existing decks or templates by unzipping and changing slide XML, and read them with markitdown. It adds design guidance and required content, file and visual QA through LibreOffice. The folder holds SKILL.md and a scripts directory with thumbnail.py, add_slide.py, clean.py and validation scripts. The README gives /plugin marketplace add anthropics/skills as the Claude Code install route. The folder's LICENSE.txt is not an open source licence: use is governed by your agreement with Anthropic, or else Anthropic's standard terms, and users may not copy the materials outside the Services, make derivative works, distribute them or reverse engineer them. The README calls these skills source-available. The repository was last pushed on 28 October 2026. It suits people who want first-draft decks or template-based slides from an agent. A limit is that visual checks render through LibreOffice, which can substitute fonts and misjudge text fit. We have not run it ourselves for this note.
