# PowerPoint Generation Skill ## Overview This skill implements a systematic framework for generating professional-quality PowerPoint presentations using AI. It addresses the unique challenges of PowerPoint as a medium that combines data analysis, narrative structure, visual design, and spatial layout—making it one of the most complex AI generation tasks in corporate knowledge work. The skill applies evidence-based prompting techniques (plan-and-solve, program-of-thought, self-consistency), structural optimization principles (workflow enforcement, constraint-based design, validation gates), and proven spatial layout patterns to ensure consistent, high-quality outputs. ## Core Principles ### 1. Workflow Enforcement AI systems exhibit tool degradation—silently switching to suboptimal alternatives when primary tools encounter difficulties. For spatial/visual tasks, this creates unreliable outputs. **Implementation**: Explicitly specify the html2pptx technical workflow and prohibit alternative approaches. Require documentation review before execution. **Rationale**: PowerPoint generation requires precise spatial calculations. The html2pptx skill provides reliable pixel-level control. Preventing tool switching eliminates the primary source of layout inconsistencies. ### 2. Constraint-Based Design Over Decorative Specification Simple visual rules scale reliably; complex decorative elements create brittleness in AI generation. **Implementation**: Define what NOT to do (ne
