What it is
Instead of restyling slides by hand, this skill generates a deck from the official
Qvantum .potx template, so every slide inherits the real theme — navy #002656, the full palette,
Host Grotesk type, the Q logo, and the 18 brand layouts. You give it a short brief (or just ask Claude in plain language),
and it returns a finished .pptx that's on-brand and easy to read.
What's in the zip:
- the official Qvantum PowerPoint template
- the full brand reference (colours, typography, logo, imagery rules)
- the Host Grotesk brand fonts
- the generator + a cross-platform preview tool, with worked examples
Set up — one time Windows · macOS · Linux
- Unzip into your Claude skills folder so you end up with a
qvantum-powerpointfolder inside it:WindowsC:\Users\SamDecker\.claude\skills\macOS · Linux/Users/SamDecker/.claude/skills/Replace
SamDeckerwith your username. On Linux the home path is/home/SamDecker/.claude/skills/. - Install the Python libraries — one line in your terminal:
Windows — Command Prompt
C:\Users\SamDecker> py -m pip install python-pptx pillow lxmlmacOS / Linux — Terminal
% python3 -m pip install python-pptx pillow lxml - Install the brand font. Open
qvantum-powerpoint/assets/fonts/, select the fourHostGrotesk-*.ttffiles → Install (Windows: right-click → Install for all users; macOS: double-click → Install). Without the font the text falls back and looks wrong. - Add the Qvantum photos — see the next section.
Get the pictures
Download both Qvantum image libraries from SharePoint into one folder named exactly
pics from Sharepoint, keeping the two sub-folder names:
pics from Sharepoint/
├── Products and Components Images/
└── Stock Images/
Put the pics from Sharepoint folder in (or above) the project you're working in — the skill finds it automatically, so deck files stay portable between computers.
Make a deck
Two finished decks made with this skill — open each one, and copy the exact prompt that produced it:
The exact prompt
The exact prompt
Type the slash command, then describe your own deck the same way — or skip the slash command and just say “Make a Qvantum deck: …”.
No Claude / AI? Run it directly — write a short JSON brief, then call the generator in your terminal:
Windows — Command Prompt
macOS / Linux — Terminal
qvantum-powerpoint/reference/example/ (the two examples above) and edit the text.Good to know
- Cross-platform. Building and opening decks works the same on Windows, macOS and Linux.
- Sharing a deck? If a recipient doesn't have Host Grotesk installed, embed the fonts once in PowerPoint: File ▸ Save ▸ Embed fonts in the file.
- Stays on brand. Colours, type and logo come straight from the official template and the bundled brand guide.
