PPTX Quality Gates

Use when validating or repairing an editable PPTX deck for geometry, accessibility, native editability, source lineage, and OOXML package integrity.

1 minute · 191 words · 3 sections

Use this skill before delivering a generated PPTX. Treat deterministic failures as repair work, not exceptions.

Workflow

Confirm the spec, builder, PPTX, source manifest, and audit paths.
Apply references/audit-checklist.md to the coordinate contract before building.
Reopen the PPTX and compare slide count, actual bounds, hidden slides, and requested geometry with the layout tree.
For production decks, run pptx-reference-deck-analysis/scripts/validate_package.py and save the JSON report.
Check document language, slide titles, meaningful-image alt text, reading order, table headers, and source references.
When a compatible renderer is already available, inspect previews for clipping, font fallback, contrast, crop, and hierarchy. Do not add a renderer dependency.
Repair the spec or task-local builder, rebuild, and rerun the same checks.

180 chapters found by walking the repository tree for SKILL.md, not by matching a directory convention. 49 distinct layouts observed: plugins/accessibility-compliance/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/agent-teams/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/api-scaffolding/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/backend-development/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/before-you-build/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/block-no-verify/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/blockchain-web3/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/brand-landingpage/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/business-analytics/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/cicd-automation/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/cloud-infrastructure/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/conductor/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/data-engineering/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/database-design/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/developer-essentials/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/dgx-spark-ops/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/documentation-generation/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/documentation-standards/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/dotnet-contribution/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/file-conversion/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/framework-migration/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/frontend-mobile-development/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/game-development/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/hermes-tweet/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/hr-legal-compliance/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/incident-response/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/javascript-typescript/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/kubernetes-operations/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/llm-application-dev/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/llm-finetuning/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/machine-learning-ops/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/observability-monitoring/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/payment-processing/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/plugin-eval/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/pptx-deck-creation/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/protect-mcp/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/python-development/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/quantitative-trading/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/reverse-engineering/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/review-agent-governance/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/security-scanning/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/shell-scripting/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/ship-mate/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/signed-audit-trails/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/skill-forge-essentials/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/social-publishing/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/startup-business-analyst/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/systems-programming/skills/*/SKILL.md, plugins/ui-design/skills/*/SKILL.md.

Issue colours

Resolved from a deterministic hash of the owner name. Two accent tones are generated per issue and each is proven against its own ground before it ships: a single accent that passes AA on both light and dark paper is arithmetically impossible.

Heading repairs

1 repair applied to this chapter so the document has one h1 and no skipped levels:

Removed “PPTX Quality Gates”, a leading h1 that duplicated the chapter title.

Spec compliance

1 editorial note across 1 of 180 chapters. They are printed in the margin of each chapter rather than as errors here.

PostgreSQL Table Design — 1 note

Images

Images inside a chapter come from the upstream repository. Where the author gave no alternative text we mark the image decorative rather than inventing a description — a plausible caption we made up is worse than none for the reader who depends on it.

Marketplace

A plugin manifest is published at .claude-plugin/marketplace.json by Seth Hobson, declaring 95 plugins. It is read for editorial metadata only — never as the skill index, which is always the repository tree.

Signal

Install counts come from skills.sh. They measure downloads, not quality, and an unranked repository is not an unread one.

Agent surfaces

The whole issue is available as one markdown document at /wshobson/agents.md, and each chapter at its own .md URL.

Publication

Set by Skills Docs from the source repository. Body text is Literata at the reader’s chosen size and measure; code is Geist Mono. Nothing on this page was written by us except this paragraph.
