Entry point for PPT generation. Asks the user to choose a mode (fast, standard, or creative), then collects role / audience / scene / page_count as needed. For standard mode, also asks how images should be sourced (AI generation, web search, or none), whether charts should use AI-generated infographics or ECharts, and whether the final deliverable should be PPTX or PDF. Parses uploaded pdf/docx/md/txt files, produces task_pack.json + info_pack.json in a new deck_dir, then dispatches to sn-ppt-creative or sn-ppt-standard. Fast mode skips optional questions and gets straight to building. Use when the user asks to make a PPT / presentation / 演示 / PPT. If the user asks to open, preview, inspect, or edit previously generated HTML slides in the WebUI/workbench without regenerating, dispatch to sn-ppt-workbench instead of this generation entry.
Design & media
sn-ppt-creative
Try itCreative-mode PPT pipeline. One full-page 16:9 PNG per slide. LLM / VLM calls go through sn-ppt-standard/lib/model_client.py (shared thin client). Text-to-image (the actual png rendering) goes through sn-image-base/scripts/sn_agent_runner.py. Falls back to web image search when T2I generation fails. Expects task_pack.json + info_pack.json already written by sn-ppt-entry.
What it does
Creative-mode PPT pipeline. One full-page 16:9 PNG per slide. LLM / VLM calls go through sn-ppt-standard/lib/model_client.py (shared thin client). Text-to-image (the actual png rendering) goes through sn-image-base/scripts/sn_agent_runner.py. Falls back to web image search when T2I generation fails.

The skill document
sn-ppt-creative
⚠️ This skill must be invoked through
/skill sn-ppt-entry. Never start here directly — the entry skill collects parameters and writestask_pack.json+info_pack.jsonthat this skill requires. If you arrived here without those files, stop and tell the user to enter via/skill sn-ppt-entryor "生成 PPT".
Call-routing policy
| Kind | Backend |
|---|---|
| LLM (text) | $PPT_STANDARD_DIR/lib/model_client.py → llm(sys, user) |
| VLM (image understanding) | $PPT_STANDARD_DIR/lib/model_client.py → vlm(sys, user, images) |
| T2I (image generation) | $SN_IMAGE_BASE/scripts/sn_agent_runner.py sn-image-generate |
Never mix — LLM / VLM through sn-image-base, or T2I through model_client — both violate policy.
Visual asset priority
- Creative mode renders each slide as a generated full-page PNG, so image generation is the first-priority visual path.
- If image generation fails for a page, use web search (
sn-search-image) as a fallback to find a real image that fits the page's topic. Each search result includes the image URL, source page, title, and domain for traceability. - Do not create placeholders. If generation and search both fail, record the page failure and continue; never write fake PNGs, grey boxes, broken-image icons, or "image pending" text.
- Do not mention the search provider name in prompts, visible slide text, progress, or summaries.

Generation progress WebUI
sn-ppt-entry starts the generation progress WebUI after task_pack.json / info_pack.json are written. During creative-mode generation, publish progress with the shared writer from sn-ppt-standard:
P="python3 $PPT_STANDARD_DIR/scripts/progress_event.py"
$P --deck-dir --stage creative-style --status running
$P --deck-dir --stage creative-style --status ok --artifact style_spec.md
$P --deck-dir --stage creative-outline --status running
$P --deck-dir --stage creative-outline --status ok --artifact outline.json
$P --deck-dir --stage creative-prompt --page N --status running
$P --deck-dir --stage creative-prompt --page N --status ok
$P --deck-dir --stage creative-render --page N --status running
$P --deck-dir --stage creative-render --page N --status ok
$P --deck-dir --stage export --status running
$P --deck-dir --stage export --status ok
On failure, write the same stage with --status failed --error "" before moving on or aborting. On native Windows, use python if python3 is unavailable.
Resume
python3 $SKILL_DIR/scripts/resume_scan.py --deck-dir
# => {"style_spec_done": bool, "outline_done": bool, "pptx_done": bool,
# "pages": [{"page_no": 1, "action": "skip|render_only|full"}, ...]}
Dispatch:
| Manifest | Do |
|---|---|
style_spec_done == false | Run Stage 2 |
outline_done == false | Run Stage 3 |
per-page action == "full" | Run Stage 4.1 + 4.2 |
per-page action == "render_only" | Run Stage 4.2 only (prompt.txt already on disk) |
per-page action == "skip" | Skip |
pptx_done == false (all pages done or failed) | Run Stage 5 |
Stage 2 — style_spec.md (LLM or VLM via model_client)
One independent exec tool_call. Two branches based on reference images.
Branch A (no ref images, or all missing on disk) — use model_client.llm:
python3 -c "
import sys, pathlib, json
sys.path.insert(0, '$PPT_STANDARD_DIR/lib')
from model_client import llm
deck = pathlib.Path('')
tp = json.loads((deck / 'task_pack.json').read_text())
ip = json.loads((deck / 'info_pack.json').read_text())
sys_prompt = open('$SKILL_DIR/prompts/style_from_query.md').read()
user_prompt = json.dumps({
'params': tp['params'],
'query': ip.get('user_query'),
'digest': ip.get('document_digest'),
}, ensure_ascii=False)
md = llm(sys_prompt, user_prompt)
(deck / 'style_spec.md').write_text(md, encoding='utf-8')
print('style_spec.md ok')
"
Branch B (≥1 reference image on disk) — use model_client.vlm:
python3 -c "
import sys, pathlib, json
sys.path.insert(0, '$PPT_STANDARD_DIR/lib')
from model_client import vlm
deck = pathlib.Path('')
ip = json.loads((deck / 'info_pack.json').read_text())
tp = json.loads((deck / 'task_pack.json').read_text())
refs = [p for p in (ip.get('user_assets') or {}).get('reference_images', []) if pathlib.Path(p).exists()]
sys_prompt = open('$SKILL_DIR/prompts/style_from_image.md').read()
user_prompt = f'PPT 主题/参数: {json.dumps(tp[\"params\"], ensure_ascii=False)}\nuser_query: {ip.get(\"user_query\") or \"\"}'
md = vlm(sys_prompt, user_prompt, images=refs)
(deck / 'style_spec.md').write_text(md, encoding='utf-8')
print(f'style_spec.md ok (from {len(refs)} ref images)')
"
If user_assets.reference_images is non-empty but all paths missing on disk: fall through to Branch A and prepend a line reference_images_missing: at the top of style_spec.md.
Stage 3 — outline.json (LLM via model_client)
python3 -c "
import sys, pathlib, json
sys.path.insert(0, '$PPT_STANDARD_DIR/lib')
from model_client import llm
deck = pathlib.Path('')
tp = json.loads((deck / 'task_pack.json').read_text())
ip = json.loads((deck / 'info_pack.json').read_text())
style = (deck / 'style_spec.md').read_text()
sys_prompt = open('$SKILL_DIR/prompts/outline.md').read()
user_prompt = json.dumps({
'style_spec_markdown': style,
'params': tp['params'],
'query': ip.get('user_query'),
'digest': ip.get('document_digest'),
}, ensure_ascii=False)
raw = llm(sys_prompt, user_prompt).strip()
if raw.startswith('\`\`\`'):
raw = raw.split('\n', 1)[1].rsplit('\`\`\`', 1)[0]
data = json.loads(raw)
assert len(data['pages']) == tp['params']['page_count'], 'page_count mismatch'
(deck / 'outline.json').write_text(json.dumps(data, ensure_ascii=False, indent=2))
print(f'outline ok, {len(data[\"pages\"])} pages')
"
On failure (non-JSON / length mismatch): abort.
Stage 4 — per-page: one independent exec per page
4.1 Compose prompt (LLM via model_client) — skip if action == "render_only"
python3 -c "
import sys, pathlib, json
sys.path.insert(0, '$PPT_STANDARD_DIR/lib')
from model_client import llm
deck = pathlib.Path('')
N =
style = (deck / 'style_spec.md').read_text()
outline = json.loads((deck / 'outline.json').read_text())
page = next(p for p in outline['pages'] if int(p['page_no']) == N)
sys_prompt = open('$SKILL_DIR/prompts/page_prompt.md').read()
user_prompt = json.dumps({'style_spec_markdown': style, 'page': page}, ensure_ascii=False)
txt = llm(sys_prompt, user_prompt)
(deck / 'pages' / f'page_{N:03d}.prompt.txt').write_text(txt, encoding='utf-8')
print(f'prompt page {N} ok')
"
# sanitize the written prompt in-place: strip hex/rgb/hsl/CSS/px/em/rem etc
# to prevent T2I server-side prompt-enhance from baking them into the image.
# Silent: no chat-facing notification; removals go to stderr only.
python3 $SKILL_DIR/scripts/sanitize_prompt.py --path /pages/page_.prompt.txt
4.2 Generate image (T2I via sn-image-base)
--negative-prompt 是针对可能带自身 prompt-enhance 的 T2I 后端的最后一道防线:
即使前面的 sanitize 没拦住、或后端重写时引入了新的样式元数据,也通过反向约束压制模型把它们画出来。这段字符串在所有页上都一致。
python $SN_IMAGE_BASE/scripts/sn_agent_runner.py sn-image-generate \
--prompt "$(cat /pages/page_.prompt.txt)" \
--negative-prompt "hex color code, #RRGGBB, rgb(), rgba(), hsl(), hsla(), css, json, yaml, code snippet, pixel values, px, em, rem, pt, color palette text, typography label, design spec, style guide, font stack, hex code, layout annotation, dimensional callout, figma-style spec sheet, wireframe annotation, swatch with numbers" \
--aspect-ratio 16:9 \
--image-size 2k \
--save-path /pages/page_.png \
--output-format json
4.3 Failure handling
- 4.1 failure (model timeout / empty / malformed): record
page_nointofailed_pages, echo failure line, continue. - 4.2 failure: same — record, echo, continue.
- No retries. No placeholder PNG. Don't write 1x1 transparent PNGs to fake success.
.prompt.txtmay remain on disk for a later manual re-run of 4.2 only.
Stage 5 — pptx 打包(一次独立 exec)
所有页图生成后(含部分失败的情况),把 pages/page_*.png 平铺打包成 16:9 整册 PPTX,每张图满版一页。由 scripts/build_pptx.py 完成,模型只负责执行脚本。
python3 $SKILL_DIR/scripts/build_pptx.py --deck-dir
# => {"deck_id": "...", "output": "/.pptx",
# "total_slides": N, "included_pages": [...], "missing_pages": [...]}
行为约定:
- 输出路径默认
/.pptx;可用--output覆盖。 - 页序按
outline.json的page_no排;缺失outline.json时按page_001..page_NNN走。 - 缺失的 PNG 会插入空白页并在 stderr 记录一行,不中止;这样跟 Stage 4 的"失败跳过"语义一致。
- 脚本失败(依赖缺失 / 写盘失败):echo 失败原因,不中止整个 skill,仍进入 Stage 6 收尾;PNG 已在磁盘上。 如果 python-pptx 缺失导致失败:🚫 不要尝试 pip install python-pptx 或任何替代方案。PNG 页面已经是最终交付物,直接进入 Stage 6。
Stage 6 — closing
Emit:
创意模式已完成。
📁 输出目录:
📄 结果文件:
- style_spec.md
- outline.json
- pages/page_001.png ~ page_NNN.png(失败 M 页:page_..., page_...)
- .pptx(整册,缺失页插入空白)
⚠️ 未完成:
- page_007:生图返回超时,已跳过(pptx 中为空白页)
下一步:
- 可直接打开 .pptx 查看整册
- 或在 pages/ 目录查看 PNG
Progress echo — MANDATORY
| Stage | Example |
|---|---|
| After resume_scan | 已进入 sn-ppt-creative,共 N 页 |
| After each progress write | .workbench/progress.json 已更新: |
| After Stage 2 | [1] style_spec.md ✓ |
| After Stage 3 | [2] outline.json ✓(N 页) |
| Per page-prompt (4.1) | [prompt 3/10] ✓ |
| Per page-image (4.2) | [图 3/10] page_003.png ✓ or [图 3/10] ✗ 超时 |
| After Stage 5 | [pptx] .pptx ✓(N 页,缺失 M 页) or [pptx] ✗ |
| Closing | full summary above |
- Each echo is a chat reply, not a log write.
- Per-page echo is the heartbeat for Stage 4.
- On failure, echo failure line with reason before moving on.
🚫 Hard rules
- Do NOT loop inside a single exec. One page = one tool_call.
- Do NOT fake images. Failed T2I → record failed, move on. No 1x1 placeholder PNGs.
- Do NOT use
model_client.t2i— T2I must go throughsn-image-base.model_clienthandles only LLM / VLM. - Do NOT use
sn-text-optimizeorsn-image-recognizefrom sn-image-base — those must go throughmodel_client.llm/model_client.vlm. - Do NOT retry on first failure. If the same stage fails twice in a row with the same error, treat it as permanent and move on.
- Do NOT generate editable JSON from PNG (out of scope).
- Language integrity. All user-visible text MUST match the user's query language. A single English slide in a Chinese deck is a regression.
- Do NOT use python-pptx, pptxgenjs, or any alternative PPTX builder.
scripts/build_pptx.pyis the ONLY way to produce a PPTX. Neverpip install python-pptxor write Node scripts that importpptxgenjs. If PPTX build fails, the PNG pages are the final deliverable. - Do NOT fabricate data. All numbers and factual claims MUST come from the user's documents or web search. Use qualitative descriptions if no data source is available.
- Wait for responses. If you ask the user a question, do NOT proceed until they reply. Never assume default values.
- Multi-round edits: regenerate. When the user requests changes, re-run the affected pipeline stages. Do NOT sed/perl/patch files in-place.
- Validate paths before writing. All output goes under
/— the absolute path written intask_pack.json. Before writing any file, verify the parent directory exists. Never write to/workspace/,/tmp/,~/,./, or any hallucinated path.

Standard and fast PPT pipeline. All LLM / VLM / T2I calls are wrapped in a single CLI entry (scripts/run_stage.py). The main agent's job is simple: emit ONE shell command per stage, never write loops, never write prompts. Standard mode plans thoroughly with a three-sample deck preview checkpoint (three concatenated deck images plus a preview URL), web research, image search, and user-selected final output format (PPTX or PDF) for polished, delivery-ready presentations. Fast mode builds a complete draft immediately with autonomous decisions, then provides structured refinement suggestions so the user can iterate quickly. Supports AI-generated infographics (U1) for diagrams and flowcharts, web image search (Serper) for real photos, and ECharts for data charts.
Open the AI PPT editing WebUI for previously generated SenseNova HTML slides. Use when the user asks to preview, inspect, edit, or open an existing/generated PPT deck in the WebUI/workbench without regenerating slides. Accepts an explicit deck_dir or auto-detects the newest local ppt_decks entry containing HTML pages. Does not run style/outline/page-html/export generation.
Environment diagnostic for the PPT family. Validates sn-image-base, API keys, Node runtime, and optional deps; interactively writes .env for required vars. Runs before sn-ppt-entry; does not modify sn-image-* skills.
Environment diagnostic skill for SenseNova-Skills project. Checks that sn-image-base is properly installed and configured, validates dependencies and environment variables. Prompts user to configure missing required variables and saves them to .env file. After configuration, reloads environment and suggests agent restart if needed.
Base-layer skill for the SenseNova-Skills project, providing low-level APIs for image generation, recognition (VLM), and text optimization (LLM). This skill does not preprocess inputs; it only calls backend services and returns results. This skill is not user-facing and is intended for upper-layer skills only.
