What it does

This skill gives an AI agent a set of design rules for editing a single slide in a presentation. Once installed, when the agent changes one element on a slide (its position, size, text, colour or contrast), it checks the change against fixed canvas margins, a text-height lookup table, a type-size scale and rich-text markup rules, so the edited slide still looks consistent. It is a reference guide used alongside other editing skills rather than a standalone tool.

Great for

  • Developers building or maintaining the OpenMAIC slide editor who want agents to edit slides cleanly
  • Designers reviewing why an AI-edited slide looks crowded, misaligned or low-contrast
  • Teams writing agent workflows that rewrite slide text and need correct rich-text markup

Skip it if

  • People creating slides from scratch with no editing tool: the skill only describes how to adjust existing elements on the OpenMAIC canvas, and it does not generate decks itself
  • Anyone expecting automatic layout fixes: the document says there is no alignment operation, so the agent must compute every coordinate and mistakes are possible

Try asking

  • “Fix the text overflow on slide 3 by shortening the words and resizing the box to fit the table”
  • “Recolour the subtitle on this slide so it has enough contrast against the background”
  • “Rewrite the bullet points on this page as separate paragraphs with bullet markers and keep the same font size”
  • “Align these three elements to the existing left margin of the slide”

    Ask for the task

    No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.

Get better results

  • Use this skill together with the page-clone or pro-editing skills, since the file says those decide which pages to touch and in what order
  • Give the agent the current slide's element data so it can read neighbouring positions and font sizes before changing anything
  • Check the result visually after edits, because the rules are numeric and cannot catch every visual problem
