About this resource

Content

Office PowerPoint MCP Server lets MCP clients create, inspect, format, and update Microsoft PowerPoint presentations. It exposes deck management, content creation, text formatting, image handling, shapes, tables, charts, themes, templates, fonts, hyperlinks, slide masters, connectors, and transition tools.

The upstream README documents local installation and uvx usage through the office-powerpoint-mcp-server PyPI package. The package exposes the ppt_mcp_server command for MCP clients.

Source Review

These sources were reviewed on 2026-06-05. Prefer the live repository and PyPI metadata for current package version, command name, Python requirement, dependencies, tool coverage, and setup guidance.

Features

  • Create and open presentation files.
  • Add, delete, duplicate, reorder, and inspect slides.
  • Add and format text boxes, paragraphs, tables, images, shapes, and charts.
  • Apply themes, templates, fonts, transitions, connectors, and slide masters.
  • Inspect presentation structure and slide content.
  • Save updated decks for later review or sharing.

Installation

For MCP clients that launch stdio servers:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "powerpoint": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["--from", "office-powerpoint-mcp-server", "ppt_mcp_server"]
    }
  }
}

Restart the MCP client after adding the server.

Use Cases

  • Ask Claude to draft a structured slide deck from an outline.
  • Add charts, tables, and diagrams to an existing presentation.
  • Apply consistent typography and theme choices across slides.
  • Generate presentation templates for repeatable reporting workflows.
  • Inspect a deck before review and extract slide-level structure.
  • Update product, sales, training, or executive briefing decks with new content.

Safety and Privacy

Presentation automation can quickly change important decks. Keep backups, use a review step before sharing outputs, and require human approval before exporting, publishing, deleting, or broadly reformatting important presentations.

PowerPoint files can contain sensitive business plans, customer data, product screenshots, charts, embedded images, and hidden metadata. Review generated files, extracted content, and any saved deck before sharing it outside the trusted project boundary.

Duplicate Check

No gongrzhe/Office-PowerPoint-MCP-Server entry, office-powerpoint-mcp-server package entry, or matching source URL was found in content/mcp. This is distinct from Word and Excel MCP servers because it focuses specifically on Microsoft PowerPoint presentation workflows.

Safety notes✓Office PowerPoint MCP Server can create, open, save, inspect, and modify presentation files. Editing tools can add or change slides, text, images, shapes, tables, charts, themes, templates, transitions, hyperlinks, connectors, and slide masters. Review generated decks before using them for customers, sales, training, executive briefings, financial plans, legal reviews, or public communication. Keep backups before running broad formatting, template, master-slide, image, or chart changes on important presentations.✓Office Word MCP Server can create, copy, merge, convert, protect, sign, and modify Word documents. Editing tools can alter paragraphs, tables, lists, images, footnotes, endnotes, formatting, styles, comments, and document properties. Review generated documents before sharing, signing, converting to PDF, or using them as legal, financial, HR, policy, or customer-facing material. Keep backups before running broad search-and-replace, merge, delete, protection, or formatting operations on important documents.✓Launches and controls a real browser process that can navigate to arbitrary URLs and submit forms on your behalf. Treat any site the agent visits as untrusted; only allow automation against pages and actions you intend to run. Persisted browser profiles can keep cookies and logged-in sessions between runs, so isolate sensitive accounts.✓The unified server can discover and execute many ACI.dev managed functions, so restrict permissions before connecting it to an autonomous agent. App-specific servers should be preferred when a workflow only needs a small set of integrations. Connected apps may read, create, update, delete, or send data depending on the selected functions and linked account permissions. Require human approval before email, calendar, CRM, ticketing, infrastructure, billing, deployment, or account-administration actions.
Privacy notes✓Presentations can contain confidential plans, customer names, product screenshots, business metrics, embedded images, speaker context, and hidden metadata. Filenames, prompts, tool arguments, generated slide text, extracted deck content, and save/export logs may be visible to the MCP client and model provider. Review generated presentations and extracted content before sharing logs, prompts, or decks outside the trusted project boundary.✓Word documents can contain personal data, comments, tracked decisions, hidden metadata, embedded images, confidential business text, signatures, and restricted-editing sections. Document text, filenames, comments, metadata, prompts, tool arguments, generated outputs, and conversion logs may be visible to the MCP client and model provider. Review generated files and extracted comments before sharing logs, diffs, or documents publicly.✓Page content, form input, and accessibility snapshots from visited sites are returned to the model context. Avoid driving the browser through pages that contain production credentials or private user data unless the profile is isolated.✓Tool names, function arguments, prompts, linked account identifiers, execution results, logs, and connected-service data may pass through ACI.dev, the selected third-party apps, the MCP client, and the model provider. API keys and linked-account credentials must be protected in client config, environment files, logs, screenshots, and shared prompts. Review ACI.dev account, tenant, retention, audit-log, and OAuth settings before routing production or customer data through the server.
