Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill failed 1 of 6 checks. A failure is not proof of bad intent; it means something in the code needs a human to look at it before you run it.

  • No undeclared network calls: failed

    Contacts 1 host that is neither well-known infrastructure nor declared in the skill's frontmatter: api.x.ai.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

About this skill

What it does

The ppt-translator skill translates PowerPoint presentations into text while preserving the original formatting. It extracts slide titles, bullet points, and other elements to create a readable document that mirrors the structure of the presentation. This allows for easier accessibility and content repurposing from PowerPoint files.

When to use it

  • You need to make a PowerPoint presentation accessible to someone who cannot view presentations (e.g., visually impaired users).
  • You want to extract the key information from a PowerPoint for documentation or reporting purposes.
  • You need to convert a PowerPoint into a different format, like a markdown document, quickly and easily.
  • You're repurposing presentation content for blog posts or other written materials while maintaining its original structure.

Key capabilities

  • PowerPoint to text translation
  • Formatting preservation (slide titles, bullet points)
  • Output in a readable format (likely text-based)

Example prompts

  • "Translate this PowerPoint into a text document." [followed by uploading the PPT file]
  • “Extract the key information from this presentation and preserve its structure.” [followed by uploading the PPT file]
  • "Convert this PowerPoint to markdown, keeping the slide titles as headers." [followed by uploading the PPT file]

Tips & gotchas

The skill requires a valid PowerPoint (.ppt or .pptx) file as input. The quality of the output depends on the complexity and formatting of the original presentation; very complex layouts might not translate perfectly.
