PPTX Quantum Maze Deck

Overview

Build a downloadable PowerPoint deck that teaches a technical topic to students using a continuous metaphor, with strong visual consistency, non-bulleted text, and interactive navigation elements.

Workflow

1. Define slide-by-slide narrative constraints (what must appear by which slide).
2. Choose a persistent visual metaphor and render a reusable background asset set.
3. Programmatically generate PPTX:
   • 16:9 canvas
   • background images
   • dynamic per-slide text box layouts (no bullets)
   • standout CTA buttons with hyperlinks
4. Validate:
   • slide count
   • no bullet formatting
   • hyperlinks exist and target correct slide
5. Package output under deliverable/.

Tools to Create

utils/build_quantum_maze_pptx.py

• Purpose: Generate Quantum_Computing_Maze_Metaphor.pptx with maze metaphor visuals, dynamic layouts, and internal hyperlinks.
• Inputs: (optional) output path, random seed.
• Outputs:
  • deliverable/Quantum_Computing_Maze_Metaphor.pptx
  • deliverable/assets/maze_slide_01.png ... maze_slide_10.png
• Dependencies: python-pptx, pillow

Tools to Use

• MCP filesystem write/edit tools (to persist scripts and artifacts)
• MCP command_line execute_command (to install deps, run generator, run verification script)

Packages

• python-pptx
• pillow

Expected Outputs

• A 10-slide .pptx in deliverable/ that is directly downloadable.

Verification & Improvement

• Programmatically open the generated PPTX with python-pptx and assert:
  • exactly 10 slides
  • quiz buttons exist on slides 4 and 8
  • quiz buttons link to slide 10
  • no paragraph has bullet enabled
