Generate PPT/slides from prompts, local images, PDFs, and other files with the Felo PPT Task API. Use when users ask to create, make, generate, or export presentations or slide decks; turn an attached/local file into slides; include an original image in a PPT; or explicitly invoke /felo-slides. Handles file upload, API key checks, task creation, polling, and final ppt_url output.

  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • 2 bundled files

    Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.

  • Open source

    Published by Felo-Inc on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Felo Slides AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
    https://github.com/Felo-Inc/felo-skills/tree/main/felo-slides
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/Felo-Inc/felo-skills.git /tmp/felo-skills
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/felo-skills/felo-slides .claude/skills/felo-slides
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Felo Slides in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Felo Slides on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Felo Slides is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Felo Slides Skill

When to Use

Trigger this skill for requests about creating presentation files:

  • Create/generate slides from a topic or outline
  • Turn notes into a PPT deck
  • Build slides from a local image, PDF, or document
  • Put an uploaded original image into the generated PPT
  • Build a presentation with a page count requirement
  • Export presentation content into a shareable slide link

Trigger keywords:

  • Chinese prompts about making slides or presentations
  • English: slides, PPT, presentation deck, generate presentation
  • Explicit commands: /felo-slides, "use felo slides"

Do NOT use this skill for:

  • Real-time information lookup (use felo-search)
  • Questions about local codebase files
  • Pure text tasks that do not require slide generation

Setup

1. Get API key

  1. Visit felo.ai
  2. Open Settings -> API Keys
  3. Create and copy your API key

2. Configure environment variable

Linux/macOS:

bash
export FELO_API_KEY="your-api-key-here"

Windows PowerShell:

powershell
$env:FELO_API_KEY="your-api-key-here"

How to Execute

Use Bash tool commands and follow this workflow exactly.

Step 1: Precheck API key

bash
if [ -z "$FELO_API_KEY" ]; then
  echo "ERROR: FELO_API_KEY not set"
  exit 1
fi

If key is missing, stop and return setup instructions.

Step 2: Run Node Script (create + poll)

Use the bundled script (no jq dependency):

bash
node felo-slides/scripts/run_ppt_task.mjs \
  --query "USER_PROMPT_HERE" \
  --interval 10 \
  --max-wait 1800 \
  --timeout 60

When the user provides a local image or file, pass its absolute path with --file. Include the desired use of the original asset in the prompt. For example:

bash
node felo-slides/scripts/run_ppt_task.mjs \
  --query "Create exactly 2 slides and place the uploaded original image directly in the PPT" \
  --file "/absolute/path/to/source.jpg" \
  --interval 10 \
  --max-wait 1800 \
  --timeout 60

Do not replace --file with a textual description when the user explicitly wants the original file or image used in the PPT.

To apply a specific theme, first list available themes with felo ppt-themes, then pass the theme ID:

bash
node felo-slides/scripts/run_ppt_task.mjs \
  --query "USER_PROMPT_HERE" \
  --theme "THEME_ID_HERE" \
  --interval 10 \
  --max-wait 1800 \
  --timeout 60

Script behavior:

  • Creates task via POST https://openapi.felo.ai/v2/ppts
  • Supports optional --file <path> to upload one local file with multipart/form-data
  • Supports optional --theme <id> to apply a PPT theme (sends ppt_config.ai_theme_id)
  • Supports optional --livedoc-id <id> to reuse an existing LiveDoc instead of auto-creating a new one
  • Supports optional --task-id <id> to resume polling an existing task (skips creation)
  • Polls via GET https://openapi.felo.ai/v2/tasks/{task_id}/historical
  • Treats COMPLETED/SUCCESS as success terminal (case-insensitive)
  • Treats FAILED/ERROR as failure terminal
  • Stops polling immediately on terminal status
  • Prints ppt_url on success (fallback: live_doc_url)

Optional debug output:

bash
node felo-slides/scripts/run_ppt_task.mjs \
  --query "USER_PROMPT_HERE" \
  --interval 10 \
  --max-wait 1800 \
  --json \
  --verbose

This outputs structured JSON including:

  • task_id
  • task_status
  • ppt_url
  • live_doc_url
  • livedoc_short_id
  • ppt_business_id
  • error_message

Step 3: Confirm terminal status

The script polls the historical endpoint automatically. Wait for it to exit before responding:

  • Success: terminal status is COMPLETED or SUCCESS, and the script prints ppt_url (fallback: live_doc_url)
  • Failure: terminal status is FAILED or ERROR; return the error format below
  • Timeout: include the task_id and tell the user to resume with --task-id instead of creating a duplicate PPT task

Step 4: Return structured result

On success, return:

  • ppt_url immediately (script default output, fallback live_doc_url)
  • if --json is used, also include task_id, terminal status, and optional metadata

Output Format

Use this response structure:

markdown
## PPT Generation Result

- Task ID: <task_id>
- Status: <status>
- PPT URL: <ppt_url>
- Live Doc URL: <live_doc_url or N/A>

## Notes

- livedoc_short_id: <value or N/A>
- ppt_business_id: <value or N/A>

Error format:

markdown
## PPT Generation Failed

- Error Type: <error code or category>
- Message: <readable message>
- Suggested Action: <next step>

Error Handling

Known API error codes:

  • INVALID_API_KEY (401): key invalid or revoked
  • PPT_TASK_CREATE_FAILED (502): create task downstream failed
  • PPT_TASK_QUERY_FAILED (502): query task downstream failed

Timeout handling:

  • If timeout reached, return last known status and instruct user to retry later
  • Include task_id so user can query again
  • IMPORTANT: To resume a timed-out task, use --task-id instead of --query to avoid creating a duplicate PPT:
bash
node felo-slides/scripts/run_ppt_task.mjs \
  --task-id "TASK_ID_HERE" \
  --interval 10 \
  --max-wait 1800

Important Notes

  • Always execute this skill when user intent is slide generation.
  • Always return task_id so follow-up queries can continue from the same task.
  • Do not claim completion without a terminal status.
  • Keep API calls minimal: create once, then poll.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Felo Slides AI skill do?

Generate PPT/slides from prompts, local images, PDFs, and other files with the Felo PPT Task API. Use when users ask to create, make, generate, or export presentations or slide decks; turn an attached/local file into slides; include an original image in a PPT; or explicitly invoke /felo-slides. Handles file upload, API key checks, task creation, polling, and final ppt_url output.

Why use Felo Slides on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Felo Slides is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Felo Slides in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/Felo-Inc/felo-skills/tree/main/felo-slides. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Felo Slides?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Felo Slides?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Felo Slides with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Felo Slides AI skill free?

It is published on GitHub by Felo-Inc. Check the repository for licensing terms. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
