Almost none let you **visually point at what you want changed** and iterate in-place. slides-grab fills that gap:\n\n- **Plan** — Agent creates a structured slide outline from your topic/files\n- **Design** — Agent generates each slide as a self-contained HTML file\n- **Edit** — Browser-based editor with bbox selection, direct text editing, and agent-powered rewrites\n- **Export** — One command to PDF, plus experimental / unstable PPTX or Figma-export flows\n\n## CLI Commands\n\nWorkflow commands support `--slides-dir \u003cpath\u003e` (default: `slides`).\n\nOn a fresh clone, the discovery commands (`--help`, `list-templates`, `list-styles`, and `preview-styles`) work without a deck. `edit`, `build-viewer`, `validate`, `convert`, and `pdf` require an existing slides workspace containing `slide-*.html`.\n\n```bash\nslides-grab edit              # Launch visual slide editor\nslides-grab build-viewer      # Build single-file viewer.html\nslides-grab validate          # Validate slide HTML (Playwright-based)\nslides-grab convert           # Export to experimental / unstable PPTX\nslides-grab convert --resolution 2160p  # Higher-resolution raster PPTX export\nslides-grab figma             # Export an experimental / unstable Figma Slides importable PPTX\nslides-grab pdf               # Export PDF in capture mode (default)\nslides-grab pdf --resolution 2160p  # Higher-resolution image-backed PDF export\nslides-grab pdf --mode print  # Export searchable/selectable text PDF\nslides-grab image --prompt \"...\"    # Generate a local slide image with Nano Banana Pro\nslides-grab fetch-video --url \u003cyoutube-url\u003e --slides-dir decks/my-deck  # Download a local video asset with yt-dlp\nslides-grab tldraw           # Render a .tldr diagram into a slide-sized local SVG asset\nslides-grab list-templates    # Show available slide templates\nslides-grab list-styles       # Show 35 bundled design styles (browse, preview, select)\nslides-grab preview-styles                        # Open the 35-style visual gallery in browser\n```\n\n## Design Style Collections\n\nslides-grab bundles 35 design styles: 30 derived from [corazzon/pptx-design-styles](https://github.com/corazzon/pptx-design-styles) plus 5 slides-grab originals. Agents can also create fully custom designs beyond the bundled collection.\n\n```bash\nslides-grab list-styles                           # Browse the catalog\nslides-grab preview-styles  # Local HTML preview\n```\n\nTell the agent which style to use (or ask for something custom) — no config files needed.\n\n## Asset Contract\n\nSlides should store local image and video files in `\u003cslides-dir\u003e/assets/` and reference them as `./assets/\u003cfile\u003e` from each `slide-XX.html`.\n\n- Preferred: `\u003cimg src=\"./assets/example.png\" alt=\"...\"\u003e`\n- Preferred for video: `\u003cvideo src=\"./assets/demo.mp4\" poster=\"./assets/demo-poster.png\"\u003e\u003c/video\u003e`\n- Allowed: `data:` URLs for fully self-contained slides\n- Disallowed in saved slides: remote `http(s)://` image URLs\n- Unsupported: absolute filesystem paths such as `/Users/...` or `C:\\\\...`\n- Unsupported for saved slides: remote video URLs; download them into `\u003cslides-dir\u003e/assets/` first\n\nFor bespoke generated imagery, prefer Nano Banana Pro:\n\n```bash\nexport GOOGLE_API_KEY=...\nslides-grab image --slides-dir decks/my-deck --prompt \"Editorial hero image of a robotics warehouse at dawn\"\n```\n\nThe command saves the result into `\u003cslides-dir\u003e/assets/` and prints the portable `./assets/\u003cfile\u003e` reference to use from slide HTML. If `GOOGLE_API_KEY` (or `GEMINI_API_KEY`) is unavailable, ask for a Google API key or fall back to web search + local download into `assets/`.\n\nRun `slides-grab validate --slides-dir \u003cpath\u003e` before export to catch missing local assets and discouraged path forms.\n\n`slides-grab pdf` now defaults to `--mode capture`, which rasterizes each rendered slide into the PDF for better visual fidelity. Use `--mode print` when searchable/selectable browser text matters more than pixel-perfect parity.\n\nWhen a slide contains a `\u003cvideo\u003e`, PDF export now uses the video's poster/thumbnail still instead of a live autoplay frame. Prefer setting `poster=\"./assets/\u003cfile\u003e\"` for stable export output.\n\n`slides-grab pdf` and `slides-grab convert` now default to `2160p` / `4k` raster output for sharper exports. You can still override with `--resolution \u003cpreset\u003e` using `720p`, `1080p`, `1440p`, `2160p`, or `4k` when you want smaller or faster artifacts.\n\n### Downloading Web Videos into Deck Assets\n\nIf a source video starts on YouTube or another page supported by `yt-dlp`, download it into the deck assets folder first:\n\n```bash\nslides-grab fetch-video \\\n  --url https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EXAMPLE \\\n  --slides-dir decks/my-deck \\\n  --output-name hero-video\n```\n\nThe command prints the saved file path plus the `./assets/\u003cfile\u003e` reference to paste into slide HTML. It requires a working `yt-dlp` binary in `PATH`.\n\n### Multi-Deck Workflow\n\nPrerequisite: create or generate a deck in `decks/my-deck/` first.\n\n```bash\nslides-grab edit       --slides-dir decks/my-deck\nslides-grab validate   --slides-dir decks/my-deck\nslides-grab pdf        --slides-dir decks/my-deck --output decks/my-deck.pdf\nslides-grab pdf        --slides-dir decks/my-deck --mode print --output decks/my-deck-searchable.pdf\nslides-grab convert    --slides-dir decks/my-deck --output decks/my-deck.pptx\nslides-grab figma      --slides-dir decks/my-deck --output decks/my-deck-figma.pptx\n```\n\n\u003e **Warning:** `slides-grab convert` and `slides-grab figma` are currently **experimental / unstable**. Expect best-effort output, layout shifts, and manual cleanup in PowerPoint or Figma.\n\n### Tldraw Diagram Assets\n\nUse `slides-grab tldraw` when you want a newly authored `tldraw` diagram to fit an exact slide region and remain export-friendly as a local SVG asset. The command supports current-format `.tldr` files and store-snapshot JSON; legacy pre-records `.tldr` files must be reopened and resaved in a current `tldraw` build first:\n\n```bash\nslides-grab tldraw \\\n  --input decks/my-deck/assets/system.tldr \\\n  --output decks/my-deck/assets/system.svg \\\n  --width 640 \\\n  --height 320 \\\n  --padding 16\n```\n\nThen reference the generated SVG from your slide HTML with a normal local image:\n\n```html\n\u003cimg src=\"./assets/system.svg\" alt=\"System architecture diagram\"\u003e\n```\n\nThe built-in `diagram-tldraw` template is a simple starting point for this workflow.\n\n### Figma Workflow\n\n```bash\nslides-grab figma --slides-dir decks/my-deck --output decks/my-deck-figma.pptx\n```\n\nThis command reuses the HTML to PPTX pipeline and emits a `.pptx` deck intended for manual import into Figma Slides via `Import`. It does not upload to Figma directly. The Figma export path is **experimental / unstable** and should be treated as best-effort only.\n\n## Installation Guides\n\n- [Claude detailed guide](docs/installation/claude.md)\n- [Codex detailed guide](docs/installation/codex.md)\n\n## npm Package\n\nAlso available as an npm package for standalone CLI + skill usage:\n\n```bash\nnpm install slides-grab\n```\n\nInstall shared agent skills with Vercel Agent Skills:\n\n```bash\nnpx skills add ./node_modules/slides-grab -g -a codex -a claude-code --yes --copy\n```\n\nThis npm-install path is enough for normal usage.
