Install with the CLI

In a terminal, from the folder you want:

npx --yes palatekit@latest install ppt-template-skill-builder

With no option, the skill goes to ~/.agents/skills/; add --agent claude-code (or codex, cursor…) to target an agent.

First time: connect the CLI with

npx --yes palatekit@latest login

The agent analyzes your template's layouts and placeholders, measures the true content area, then writes a self-contained skill with the template bundled and a placeholder map. Presentations produced later respect your titles, footers and margins. This skill creates skills, not presentations.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need other skills?

The skill points to skill-creator for building and packaging the structure, and to pptx for producing decks. They help, but the template analysis method stands on its own.

What software is required?

Python with the python-pptx library to read the template and generate slides.
