Tools (10)
🟢search_templates(query, category, limit)
Search PPT Depot's catalog of consulting-grade PowerPoint template decks by keyword (name, headline, description, and the titles and tags of the slides inside each deck). Optional category filter. Returns relevance-ranked templates with page URL, cover image, slide count, and cart URL. Use this first to find a template_id for get_template. For individual slides or frameworks (for example "SWOT matrix" or "issue tree"), use search_slides.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"query": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Free-text search, e.g. \"business case\", \"market entry\", \"Texas map\", \"fintech\"."
},
"category": {
"type": "string",
"enum": [
"topics",
"industries",
"shapes",
"dashboards",
"maps",
"tombstones"
],
"description": "Optional: restrict to one template category."
},

"description": "Maximum results to return (default 10, max 25)."
}
},
"required": [
"query"
]
}🟢search_slides(query, tag_id, template_id, limit)
Search the individual slides inside PPT Depot's templates by keyword (slide title, overview text, tags, and parent template name). Each result includes the slide's public page URL, its preview image URL, a short overview, tags, and the parent template. Optional filters: tag_id (from list_tags) and template_id. Use get_slide for the full description of a slide (overview, why it matters, how to use it).
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"query": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Free-text search, e.g. \"SWOT\", \"issue tree\", \"stakeholder map\", \"pricing waterfall\"."
},
"tag_id": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Optional tag slug filter, e.g. \"strategic-planning\" (see list_tags)."
},
"template_id": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Optional template slug filter, e.g. \"business-case\" (see search_templates)."

"maximum": 25,
"description": "Maximum results to return (default 10, max 25)."
}
},
"required": [
"query"
]
}🟢get_template(template_id)
Full detail for one PowerPoint template deck: description, every slide it contains (title, page URL, preview image), tags, preview images in all three color schemes (Azure, Emerald, Crimson), related templates, and how to get it (single purchase for $20 or subscription). Takes the template_id (slug) from search_templates or list_templates.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"template_id": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Template slug, e.g. \"business-case\", or numeric deck ID."
}
},
"required": [
"template_id"
]
}🟢get_slide(slide_id)
Full detail for one slide: overview, why it matters to executives and consultants, how it is typically used, all tags, preview image URL, the parent template (with purchase and subscription options), the other slides in that template, and related slides from other templates. Takes the slide_id from search_slides (numeric ID preferred; a slide slug also works).
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"slide_id": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Numeric slide ID (e.g. \"571\") or slide slug (e.g. \"pmesii-pt-strategic-framework\")."
}
},
"required": [
"slide_id"
]
}🟢list_templates(category, sort, limit)
Browse the template catalog without a keyword: by category (topics, industries, shapes, dashboards, maps, tombstones), newest first, or most popular. With no category, returns templates across all categories. Each category holds roughly 10 to 50 templates, so a category listing is usually complete.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"category": {
"type": "string",
"enum": [
"topics",
"industries",
"shapes",
"dashboards",
"maps",
"tombstones"
],
"description": "Optional category. Omit for all categories."
},
"sort": {
"type": "string",
"enum": [
"popular",
"newest",
"name"
],
"description": "Sort order (default popular)."
},
"limit": {
"type": "integer",
"minimum": 1,
"maximum": 60,
"description": "Maximum results to return (default 25, max 60)."
}
}
}🟢list_tags(query, limit)
Management topics and frameworks used to tag slides (for example Strategic Planning, Risk Management, Digital Transformation), ranked by how many slides carry them. Optional keyword filter on the tag name. Each tag has a public browse page. Use get_tag to see a tag's templates and slides, or pass tag_id to search_slides.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"query": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Optional keyword to filter tag names, e.g. \"risk\"."
},
"limit": {
"type": "integer",
"minimum": 1,
"maximum": 60,
"description": "Maximum results to return (default 30, max 60)."
}
}
}🟢get_tag(tag_id)
Everything filed under one tag: the templates that contain tagged slides, the most-viewed tagged slides, and related tags. Takes the tag_id (slug) from list_tags.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"tag_id": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Tag slug, e.g. \"strategic-planning\"."
}
},
"required": [
"tag_id"
]
}🟢list_free_templates(query, type, limit)
Free PowerPoint downloads offered by PPT Depot: free country and regional PPT maps, plus free sample template packs. Each has a public page where the file is emailed after entering an email address. Optional keyword filter and type filter (maps or templates). Good for users who want to try before buying.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"query": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Optional keyword, e.g. \"europe\", \"consulting\"."
},
"type": {
"type": "string",
"enum": [
"all",
"maps",
"templates"
],
"description": "Filter to free maps or free template packs (default all)."
},
"limit": {
"type": "integer",
"minimum": 1,
"maximum": 60,
"description": "Maximum results to return (default 20, max 60)."
}
}
}🟢get_pricing
Current PPT Depot pricing: single-template purchase price, the three annual subscription plans (Basic, Unlimited, Executive) with what each includes, features common to all plans, the three color schemes, and links to the plans and cart pages. Use when a user asks about cost, licensing, subscriptions, or how to download a template.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {}
}🟢get_image(image_url)
Returns a PPT Depot preview image (a slide image, template cover or collage, or free-template cover) as inline image content so it can be viewed directly. Pass any image_url, thumbnail_url, preview_images or collage_image value returned by the other tools. Only public images under pptdepot.com/images are served.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"image_url": {
"type": "string",
