v0.2.14 (plugin 0.2.19)

v0.2.14 (plugin 0.2.19)

• Engine: tpl describe now reports the title placeholder's capacity (~N lines of ~M chars), so action titles can be written against a real budget.
• Engine: the capacity estimate subtracts a ~10% safety buffer, so text lands with headroom rather than at the edge.
• Skill ppt: content-rules.md documents the title-capacity budget; both skills keep a Progress Task List (phases/steps as a live task list).
• New skill ppt-prepare: story-first, gated 7-phase content planning producing a per-slide plan handed to ppt; methodology fixes the layout vocabulary.

plugin 0.2.19

plugin 0.2.19 (engine v0.2.14)

• New skill ppt-prepare: a story-first, gated content-planning process (briefing, core message, storyline, slide messages, titles, content & layout, speaker notes) that hands an approved per-slide plan to ppt.
• ppt-prepare methodology fixes the layout vocabulary: key-message (one short sentence), bullets + image, table, code block (monospace), SVG graphic; tables/SVG on blank layouts; closing = 1-2 words.
• Both skills keep a Progress Task List (the flow's phases/steps shown as a live task list).
• Skill ppt: content-rules.md documents the title-capacity budget and the W_TEXT_OVERFLOW consequence.

v0.2.13 (plugin 0.2.18)

• Engine: img.prompts box header shows the placeholder aspect ratio (IMAGE PROMPT · <ratio>); the ratio is no longer in the prompt text, idx dropped.
• Skill/plugin renamed powerpoint → ppt (to match pptc); marketplace stays ppt-skill, install /plugin install ppt@ppt-skill. The plugin is a container for multiple skills (ppt-prepare planned).
• The skill discovers its own bundled templates and offers a choice when more than the neutral default is packaged in.
• Packaging: npm run skill:zip builds an upload-ready skill ZIP for claude.ai; skill:zip:internal / --from <dir> overlay your own company templates from a git-ignored source — never committed or publicly released.
• Style gate hardened (styles never inferred; blocks slide creation until chosen), style catalog expanded, phase-colored step banners, non-destructive image rules.
• README: dedicated "Packaging & Distribution" chapter + claude.ai web install.

For non-developers: download ppt.zip below and upload it in claude.ai → Settings → Customize → Skills.

pptc 0.2.12

0.2.12 (plugin 0.2.17)

• Documentation sync: README and --help now cover the 0.2.9-0.2.11
  features (W_ELEMENT_OVERLAP, picture-placeholder overlays); the
  README gained a "PowerPoint Skill" section with install instructions
  and the plugin ships its own README. A new doc-sync contract test
  fails the build when any command, op, lint code or the skill install
  goes undocumented.

pptc 0.2.11

0.2.11 (plugin 0.2.15)

• Picture-placeholder overlay report: tpl inspect exposes per picture
  placeholder which text shapes sit on top and where (overlays, region
  relative to the image: "bottom area, left part"); tpl describe
  narrates it ("keep these regions calm in images"). The skill turns
  every overlay into an image-prompt clause so covered regions stay calm
  and free of relevant detail.

pptc 0.2.10

0.2.10 (plugin 0.2.13)

• Engine fix (repair trigger): the post-pass relationship-id counter now
  starts above every rIdPptc left by earlier applies -- re-wiring
  hyperlinks (e.g. refilling a placeholder that contains links) used to
  collide with ids from the previous apply, producing duplicate
  relationship ids. Existing duplicates self-heal on the next apply;
  the integrity validator now checks rel-id uniqueness.
• Plugin: the bundled CLI moved from skills/powerpoint/bin/ to
  skills/powerpoint/scripts/ -- scripts/ is the documented
  supporting-file convention, and bin/ officially denotes the
  plugin-root PATH directory.

pptc 0.2.9

0.2.9 (plugin 0.2.11)

• New lint W_ELEMENT_OVERLAP: an el.add element that covers a
  text-bearing shape (placeholders incl. the footer/slide-number area,
  textboxes, tables, charts) is reported with the covered shape's name;
  --strict escalates to exit 7. Prompt boxes and picture areas are
  exempt; shapes removed earlier in the same ops document do not count.
• Reader: layout placeholders without their own geometry now inherit
  the master's matching placeholder frame -- capacity and overlap lint
  work on inheritance-based templates (e.g. Office default); layouts
  expose the reserved footer/slide-number/date frames.
• Plugin: element-placement rule (never cover text fields) and the
  concurrent-edit protocol (fresh state before every write, exit-6
  recovery: re-read, re-verify targets, rebuild, retry once).

pptc 0.2.8

0.2.8 (plugin 0.2.10)

• The image-prompt box label is English ("IMAGE PROMPT"); the box
  border, the schema error example and the default chart palette use
  neutral Office colors instead of leftover corporate values.

pptc 0.2.7

0.2.7 (plugin 0.2.8)

• English throughout: the tpl describe narration (suitability hints,
  positions, capacities -- previously German), all help/README examples
  and the skill's output templates are now English. Deck content and
  user-facing skill responses still follow the deck/user language;
  German strings remain only as deliberate language examples and
  unicode-escaping test data.

pptc 0.2.6

0.2.6 (plugin 0.2.7)

• Detailed CLI help: every command documented with options and an
  example (pptc help <command>), plus the topics help ops (the
  write API: ops document anatomy, all ops with payload sketches) and
  help selectors. --help/-h anywhere prints plain text -- humans
  typing --help never see the JSON envelope.
• README: "The Ops Document" section explaining structure, fill
  payloads, expectRev and the recommended agent loop; --plain/--help
  console examples.
