Implementation Reference

• src/powerpoint/server.py:649-678 (handler)

  The handler logic for the 'save-presentation' tool. It retrieves the presentation object from the PresentationManager, determines the output file path, saves the presentation using the python-pptx library's prs.save() method, and returns a confirmation message.

  elif name == "save-presentation":
      presentation_name = arguments.get("presentation_name")
      output_path = arguments.get("output_path")
  
  
      if not presentation_name:
          raise ValueError("Missing presentation name")
  
      if presentation_name not in presentation_manager.presentations:
          raise ValueError(f"Presentation not found: {presentation_name}")
  
      prs = presentation_manager.presentations[presentation_name]
  
      # Default output path if none provided
      if not output_path:
          output_path = f"{presentation_name}.pptx"
  
      file_path = os.path.join(path,output_path)
      # Save the presentation
      try:
          prs.save(file_path)
      except Exception as e:
          raise ValueError(f"Unable to save the {presentation_name}. Error: {e}")
  
      return [
          types.TextContent(
              type="text",
              text=f"Saved presentation to: {file_path}"
          )
      ]

• src/powerpoint/server.py:343-361 (registration)

  Registers the 'save-presentation' tool in the list_tools handler, including its description and input schema requiring 'presentation_name' and optionally 'output_path'.

  types.Tool(
      name="save-presentation",
      description="Save the presentation to a file. Always use this tool at the end of any process that has "
                  "added slides to a presentation.",
      inputSchema={
          "type": "object",
          "properties": {
              "presentation_name": {
                  "type": "string",
                  "description": "Name of the presentation to save",
              },
              "output_path": {
                  "type": "string",
                  "description": "Path where to save the presentation (optional)",
              },
          },
          "required": ["presentation_name"],
      },
  ),
