## Description

Use when the user asks to open, preview, inspect, or visually edit an existing SenseNova HTML presentation in the PPT Workbench, using an explicit deck_dir or the latest deck in the current workspace.

# sn-ppt-workbench

Start or reuse the AI PPT editing WebUI for an existing HTML slide deck. The
helper prefers Hermes/canvas/port-forward URLs when available. Without a
forwarded URL, native hosts bind to localhost by default, while Docker/WSL bind
to `0.0.0.0` so remote users can reach the WebUI through the host network.

## Use Cases

- The user already generated a deck and asks to open the WebUI/editor/workbench.
- The user provides a `deck_dir` containing `task_pack.json`,
  `slides/slide_NN.html`, `pages/page_NNN.html`, or a root-level HTML deck.
- The user says to inspect or edit previously generated slides without regenerating them.

## Hard Rules

1. Do not run `sn-ppt-entry`, `sn-ppt-standard`, `page-html`, `batch-page-html`, or `export`.
2. Do not edit slide files directly. The WebUI handles user-visible editing.
3. If `deck_dir` is missing, auto-detect only under `$(pwd)/ppt_decks`.
   Other roots are considered only when the caller explicitly passes
   `--search-root`; never scan home folders by default.
4. If no usable deck is found, ask the user for the absolute `deck_dir`.
5. Workbench startup is best-effort. If it skips or fails, report the reason and do not attempt generation as a fallback.
6. Prefer a forwarded/canvas URL over localhost when the user may be on SSH, IM, or another remote device.
7. When launched from the unified PPT flow, use the exact absolute
   `task_pack.deck_dir`; opening the Workbench must not create or switch tasks.
8. Treat `task_pack.json` as progress/resume state and `outline.md` as the
   user-editable Story. Existing runtime builds may expose only part of these
   artifacts; report compatibility gaps instead of regenerating the deck.

## Invocation

Use the helper directly:

```bash
python3 $SKILL_DIR/scripts/open_workbench.py --deck-dir "<deck_dir>" --agent-session-id "${HERMES_SESSION_KEY:-}"
```

On native Windows where `python3` is unavailable:
