How to produce Word, Excel and PPT files with an agent with Pilot Deck

Use Pilot Deck 2.0's Word, Excel and PPT skills inside a WorkSpace to turn notes and data into office-ready documents.

Short answer: Install Pilot Deck with the one-line script and start it with pilotdeck; then configure a capable model in onboarding or in pilotdeck.yaml; create a WorkSpace for the project and add your notes, data or past documents. All steps.

Who it is forAn analyst, manager or consultant who spends hours turning notes into slide decks, spreadsheets and reports.

The problemFormatting decks and spreadsheets by hand is slow, and chat agents return text you still have to paste into Office.

The outcomeReal .pptx, .xlsx and .docx files built from your WorkSpace material, with layout and tone kept separate per project.

What you need first

  • Node.js v22.13.0 or newer and below v23
  • pnpm via corepack
  • A model provider key, or Ollama for local models

Steps

  1. Install Pilot Deck with the one-line script and start it with pilotdeck
  2. Configure a capable model in onboarding or in pilotdeck.yaml
  3. Create a WorkSpace for the project and add your notes, data or past documents
  4. Ask for the output, for example a 10 slide PPT deck and an Excel summary table
  5. Open the files and ask for changes in the same WorkSpace so memory stays with that project
  6. Keep separate WorkSpaces for clients so formats and tone do not bleed across

Prompt for your agent

In a new PilotDeck WorkSpace called <project>, use the PPT skill to build a <n> slide deck from these notes: <notes>, and the Excel skill to build a summary table of <data>. List the files created.

Caveat. Quality depends on the model you configure. Building from source needs GIT_LFS_SKIP_SMUDGE and exact Node version limits.
