PPT Designer

What it solves

Many presentations fail because the presenter does not know what to say, how to organize it, or who the audience is. This skill turns a vague “make me a PPT” request into a reviewable workflow: diagnose the context, propose structure, collect source material, draft a page-by-page script, and then decide visual style, assets, and chart placeholders. It is useful when you need a speakable, editable, and delivery-ready presentation without starting from a blank slide.

How it works

• Entry diagnosis: infers urgency, experience, and clarity from the first message, then switches between simplify, standard, and empower modes.
• Structure planning: matches scenario and audience to common patterns for work reports, pitch decks, teaching materials, product launches, academic talks, and data reviews.
• Material intake: accepts PDF, Word, images, plain text, and tables, extracts key points, data, and conclusions, then asks whether to integrate fully, reference selectively, or use as raw material.
• Script generation: produces a page-by-page outline based on a three-act structure, enforces one idea per page, prefers complete declarative titles, and flags pages that likely need charts.
• Visual direction: offers style families such as infographics, illustrations, photo-led layouts, hand-drawn notes, and picture-book styles, with confirmation before asset work.
• Charts and assets: supports optional chart generation when concrete data is provided, and handles commercial vs. non-commercial asset needs with traceable free-license sources when possible.

Boundaries

• It is not a black-box generator; the user still confirms structure, wording, and visual direction at key checkpoints.
• Data charts require real numbers; without data, the safer default is placeholders, not invented values.
• Photo-heavy, illustration-heavy, and picture-book styles depend on suitable visuals, so an infographic or hand-drawn style may be better when assets are missing.
• Commercial use needs explicit copyright care, especially for downloaded images and background photos.
