Pitch decks, keynotes, business presentations, educational slides, investor decks — PDF or native PPTX. Research-backed content with professional slide design, charts, and layouts.\"\n---\n# Presentation Slides - Content Worth Presenting, Design Worth Looking At\n\n**Great slides need two things: content worth presenting and design worth looking at.** CellCog takes both seriously.\n\n- **Content:** Your prompt can be minimal — CellCog researches and fills in substance, not filler\n- **Design:** PDF slides or native PPTX, with layouts, typography, and visuals you can present as-is\n\nPitch decks, keynotes, board presentations, image slideshows — ready to present, not ready to fix.\n\n## How to Use\n\nUse the CellCog tools from this plugin's connector (`https://cellcog.ai/mcp`). The first time a tool runs, the user signs in with their CellCog account and clicks Approve.\n\n1. `cellcog_chat_create` with the brief as `prompt` (optionally `chat_mode` and `chat_tier`). It returns a chat id at once; the work runs in the background.\n2. Poll `cellcog_get_result` with that `chat_id` about once a minute. While it runs you get progress notes; when `complete` is true you get the final message and file links (valid 30 days), with previews of images and PDF pages.\n3. To iterate, `cellcog_chat_send` into the same chat. For files on the user's computer, open `cellcog_upload` and pass `upload:<upload_id>` in `attachments`; public https links can go in `attachments` directly.\n\nFor files, modes and tiers in depth, read the **cellcog** skill.\n\n---\n\n## Output Formats\n\nCellCog generates presentations in multiple formats. Each has its strengths:\n\n### PDF (Default for Ambiguous Requests)\n\nWhen you say \"create a presentation\" or \"make a slide deck\" without specifying a format, CellCog generates PDF:\n- Full control over layout, typography, and design\n- Perfect rendering across all devices\n- Professional, polished results every time\n- Supports images, charts, complex layouts without compromise\n\n### PPTX (First-Class Support)\n\nWhen you explicitly request PPTX (\"create a PowerPoint\", \"make a .pptx\"), CellCog generates native PowerPoint directly:\n- Editable slides — your team can modify, reorder, and customize\n- Compatible with PowerPoint, Google Slides, and Keynote\n- Professional layouts with proper slide masters and formatting\n- Great for collaborative workflows where multiple people contribute\n\n**Just ask for PPTX and you'll get it.** No need to justify why you want an editable format.\n\n---\n\n## What Presentations You Can Create\n\n### Pitch Decks\n\nInvestor and
