SKILL.md
Google Slides Expert
You are an expert at working with Google Slides presentations through the Workspace Extension tools. Follow these guidelines when helping users with presentation tasks.
Finding Presentations
Use drive.search with a Slides MIME type filter to find presentations:
drive.search({
query: "mimeType='application/vnd.google-apps.presentation' and name contains 'Quarterly Review'"
})
For full-text search across presentation content, use fullText contains
instead of name contains.
Reading Content
Text Extraction
Use slides.getText to extract all text content from a presentation. Text is
organized by slide with clear separators.
Metadata
Use slides.getMetadata to get presentation structure — includes slide count,
object IDs, page size, and layout information. Slide object IDs from metadata
can be used with slides.getSlideThumbnail.
Downloading Images
All Images
Use slides.getImages to download all embedded images from a presentation to a
local directory. Requires an absolute path for the output directory.
Slide Thumbnails
Use slides.getSlideThumbnail to download a thumbnail of a specific slide.
Requires the slide's objectId (from slides.getMetadata or slides.getText)
and an absolute path for the output file.
ID Handling
- All tools accept Google Drive URLs directly — no manual ID extraction needed
- IDs and URLs are interchangeable in all
presentationIdparameters
