KPA — Keynote Programmatic Authoring
Status: Phase 1, Step 1. Bootstrapping. PRD v1.0 approved 2026-06-06.
KPA is a Python toolkit, MCP server, OpenClaw skill, and CLI that lets LLM
agents read, author, edit, design, and optimize Apple Keynote (.key)
presentations programmatically — with the same fluency the broader
ecosystem has for .pptx and .pdf.
Why
Apple has no public spec for the Keynote file format. KPA reverse-engineers
it (via schemas extracted directly from the Keynote.app binary, plus prior
art from keynote-parser), then layers a clean Python API, an MCP server,
and a critic / optimizer loop on top.
