Skywork PPT
PassAudited by ClawScan on May 10, 2026.
Overview
Skywork PPT is coherent for making and editing presentations, but it sends selected files and prompts to Skywork and can install a Python dependency or overwrite PPT files when asked.
Install/use this skill if you trust Skywork with the files and prompts involved. For safer use, run it in an isolated Python environment, back up PPT files before local edits, and avoid sending confidential decks unless remote processing is allowed.
Findings (5)
Artifact-based informational review of SKILL.md, metadata, install specs, static scan signals, and capability signals. ClawScan does not execute the skill or run runtime probes.
Presentation source files, templates, PDFs, and the exact request text may leave the local machine and be processed remotely.
The skill explicitly sends user-selected files and the prompt text to the Skywork service for cloud processing.
Remote upload & processing: Layers 1/2/4/5 upload local files and send the full, verbatim user query to the Skywork service.
Use this skill only with content you are comfortable sending to Skywork, and avoid confidential decks unless your organization approves that service.
The skill needs access to a Skywork account/API key to upload and process files.
The code uses the configured Skywork API key as a bearer token when calling Skywork APIs.
req.add_header("Authorization", f"Bearer {api_key}")Provide a dedicated Skywork API key if possible, rotate it if exposed, and do not share it in chat messages or files.
Running the skill may change Python packages on the machine rather than using an isolated environment.
The runtime setup installs an unpinned PyPI dependency and uses --break-system-packages, which can affect the local Python environment.
$PYTHON_CMD -m pip install -q --break-system-packages python-pptx
Prefer running it in a virtual environment or container, and consider pinning the dependency version if you manage the environment.
A mistaken local operation could remove or reorder slides in the original deck.
Local delete/reorder operations can modify the original PPTX file by default.
If `-o` is not specified, the original file is overwritten
Keep a backup or request an explicit output path with -o when deleting or reordering slides.
A PPT job may continue running for several minutes after it starts, with progress stored in a temporary log.
The workflows start long-running background jobs for PPT processing and poll logs until completion.
Run in the **background**, then read the progress log file every 5 seconds until done.
Monitor long-running jobs and stop them manually if you no longer want the operation to continue.
