- Generated or edited .pptx slide files
- Adjusted layouts and templates for review or training
Recommended Skills
Journey fit
Build/docs is the primary shelf because slide decks are deliverable documentation artifacts alongside specs and review materials. Docs covers executive decks, training material, and product review presentations—not ASO or analytics dashboards.
How it compares
Catalogue + upstream generator skill—not a live MCP server for Microsoft 365.
