About this skill

Google Slides Agent

Drop this in ~/.claude/skills/slides/SKILL.md and Claude Code becomes your presentation assistant.

Prerequisites

Google Slides shares OAuth with Google Drive. If Drive is connected, Slides works automatically. If not:

TOKEN=$(node -e "console.log(require('$HOME/.atris/credentials.json').token)")

# Check if Drive is connected (Slides piggybacks on Drive)
curl -s "https://api.atris.ai/api/integrations/google-drive/status" -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN"

# If not connected, start Drive OAuth (includes Slides scope)
curl -s -X POST "https://api.atris.ai/api/integrations/google-drive/start" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"next_url":"https://atris.ai/dashboard/settings"}'

API Reference

Base: https://api.atris.ai/api/integrations/google-slides

All requests require: -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN"

Get Token

TOKEN=$(node -e "console.log(require('$HOME/.atris/credentials.json').token)")

Presentations

List Presentations

curl -s "https://api.atris.ai/api/integrations/google-slides/presentations?page_size=20" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN"

Get a Presentation (with all slides)

curl -s "https://api.atris.ai/api/integrations/google-slides/presentations/{presentation_id}" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN"

Create a Presentation

curl -s -X POST "https://api.atris.ai/api/integrations/google-slides/presentations" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"title": "Q1 2026 Review"}'

Updating Slides (batch-update)

All slide mutations use the batch-update endpoint. This is the most powerful endpoint — it can add slides, insert text, add shapes, images, change formatting, and more.

curl -s -X POST "https://api.atris.ai/api/integrations/google-slides/presentations/{id}/batch-update" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"requests": [...]}'

Workflows

"Create a pitch deck"

  1. Create presentation: POST /presentations with title
  2. Get the presentation to find the first slide ID
  3. Batch update: add title slide, content slides, closing slide
  4. Each slide: createSlide + insertText for content
  5. Return the presentation URL: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/{id}

"List my presentations"

  1. GET /presentations
  2. Display: name, last modified, link

"Add a slide to an existing deck"

  1. GET /presentations/{id} to see current slides
  2. Batch update: createSlide at the desired index
  3. Add content with insertText, createShape, createImage

"Export deck to PDF"

  1. GET /presentations/{id}/export
  2. Decode base64 and save to file

"Update text in a deck"

  1. GET /presentations/{id} to find element IDs
  2. Batch update with replaceAllText for template variables
  3. Or insertText/deleteText for specific elements

Important Notes

  • Shares Drive OAuth — no separate connection needed. If Drive is connected, Slides works
  • Batch update is everything — all slide mutations (add, edit, delete, style) go through batch-update
  • Object IDs — every slide, shape, text box, image has an ID. Get them from GET /presentations/{id}
  • Slide size — default is 10x5.63 inches (720x406.5 PT). Position elements accordingly
  • Images — must be publicly accessible URLs. For private images, upload to Drive first
  • Templates — use replaceAllText with {{placeholder}} patterns for template-based decks

Error Handling

Error Meaning Solution
Drive not connected No Drive OAuth token Connect Google Drive first
403 insufficient_scope Token missing presentations scope Reconnect Drive to get updated scopes
404 not_found Presentation doesn't exist Check presentation ID
400 invalid_request Bad batch update request Check request format against API docs
