pptx-html-fidelity-audit
Audit a python-pptx export against its source HTML deck, identify layout/content drift (footer overflow, cropped content, missing italic/em, lost styling, off-rhythm spacing), and re-export with strict footer-rail + cursor-flow layout discipline. Use this skill whenever the user has a .pptx that was generated from an HTML slide deck and asks to compare/audit/verify/fix the export — including phrases like "compare ppt with html", "fidelity audit", "fix the pptx", "ppt is cut off", "footer overlap", "italic missing in pptx", "re-export the deck", "pptx-html-fidelity-audit", or any case where a p

# PPTX ↔ HTML Fidelity Audit A repeatable workflow for catching the ways a `python-pptx` export silently drifts from its HTML source — and fixing them with a layout discipline that prevents the same regressions on the next pass. ## When this skill applies The user has: - A source HTML slide deck (typically a single-file deck with `<section class="slide">` blocks): ```html <section class="slide light"> <div class="chrome">2026 · Q2 review</div> <span class="kicker">Pillar 03</span> <h2 class="h-xl">Shipping <em>velocity</em> doubled</h2> <p class="lead">…</p> <div class="foot">page 5 / 14</div> </section> ``` - A PPTX file generated from that deck via python-pptx (or similar). - A suspicion (or visible evidence) that the PPTX doesn't match the HTML — text bleeding into the footer, italic words gone flat, hero slides not centered, sections cropped, tag styling lost. If the user only has *one* of those two artifacts, this skill doesn't apply yet — first generate the missing one, or ask the user to provide it. ## Why this is hard (and why a skill helps) PPTX is a fixed-canvas, absolute-positioned medium. HTML is a fluid, flow-based medium. A naive python-pptx export pins each block at

- Step 1 — Extract ground truth from the PPTX
- Step 2 — Walk the HTML structure
- Step 3 — Build the audit table

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add nexu-io/open-design --skill pptx-html-fidelity-audit --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From nexu-io/open-design, a repository with 83,577 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
