SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Transforms unstructured slide content into engine-ready SmartArt specifications, reducing manual data mapping and errors.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Extract per-slide SmartArt data from SlideOutline body_points and approved recommendations.
  • Validate the generated specs against target engine schemas to ensure compatibility.
  • Use Case: A designer feeds in a deck with approved SmartArt slides and automatically receives a smartart-spec.json ready for rendering.

Quick Start

Run the extractor for each approved SmartArt slide to generate ./tmp/deck/smartart-spec.json

Frequently Asked Questions about smartart-extractor

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I extract structured data from slide content for SmartArt rendering?▼

To extract structured data for SmartArt rendering, run an automated extractor that parses SlideOutline body_points and approved recommendations to generate per-slide specifications. This process transforms unstructured slide content into engine-ready SmartArt specifications, reducing manual mapping and errors.

What is the process for validating SmartArt specs against target engine schemas?▼

Validating SmartArt specs involves checking the generated per-slide specifications against the smartart_spec schema. This ensures compatibility with the target rendering engine and prevents structural errors before the data is written to the output JSON file.

Do I need to classify slides with a strategy-map before generating SmartArt data?▼

Yes, you need to classify slides using a strategy-map to generate per-slide specs before extraction. The extractor is designed to apply its data extraction logic after a smartart-selector has produced approved slides and the strategy-map has classified them.

Can I automate deck SmartArt specifications without manual data mapping?▼

Yes, you can automate deck SmartArt specifications by feeding an approved deck into the extractor. It automatically processes the slide content and writes the validated, engine-ready SmartArt data directly to a smartart-spec.json file for rendering.

What are the limitations when extracting per-slide SmartArt data from slide outlines?▼

A key limitation is its strict prerequisite chain: the extractor only processes slides after a smartart-selector has approved them and a strategy-map has classified them. It cannot independently parse unapproved or unclassified slide content.
