AI PPT Generation

Using user input topic/query, generate a high-quality PPT download URL via Baidu AI's streaming API.

Important: Streaming Timeout Behavior

This skill uses streaming HTTP requests that can take 2+ minutes to complete. OpenClaw has default timeouts that may interrupt the stream before completion.

To ensure successful generation:

1. The agent must wait for the full stream until is_end: true is received
2. Do NOT rely on immediate completion – monitor the streaming response
3. If timeout occurs, the skill will appear to fail even though generation continues server-side

Workflow

1. Execute scripts/generate_ppt.py with user query
2. Wait for streaming completion (2+ minutes typical)
3. Return final PPT URL when is_end: true received

Expected Output Format

Successful completion returns:

{
  "status": "PPT导出结束",
  "show_msg": "PPT导出成功",
  "is_end": true,
  "data": {
    "ppt_url": "https://...ppt"
  }
}

During generation, you'll see interim {"status": "..."} messages.

Example Usage

python3 scripts/generate_ppt.py --query "经济总结报告ppt"

Agent Instructions

When using this skill:

• Set appropriate timeout: Ensure exec/sessions have sufficient timeout (180+ seconds)
• Monitor streaming output: Don't assume failure if initial responses only show status
• Wait for completion: The final URL only appears at stream end with is_end: true
• Handle gracefully: If interrupted, inform user generation may continue server-side

Troubleshooting

• PPT not appearing: Likely timeout before stream completion
• Only status messages: Generation is in progress, wait longer
• Script exits early: Check BAIDU_API_KEY and network connectivity
