PCafe × Doubao WorkThe HTML slide deck skill for Doubao Work

Doubao Work (豆包工作) accepts uploaded skills. With pcafe installed, Doubao builds decks from your material with PCafe’s templates: one question per slide, text inside its limits, one HTML file that presents offline.

Step one

Install PCafe in Doubao Work

  1. Download and unzip the skill.
  2. In the Doubao client open Plugins · Skills · Partners on the left, switch to Skills, click + Add at the top right, choose to upload a skill and pick the pcafe folder.

Afterwards, open a new chat and ask what the pcafe skill does. If it can tell you, the skill is loaded.

Step two

Working with Doubao Work once it is installed

  • Say “make a deck with the pcafe skill” and attach a document.
  • Where Doubao can run commands you get the HTML; otherwise a storyline and outline to finish in a coding agent.
  • Reuse the skill across chats for reports in a fixed format.

A prompt to copy

Using the pcafe skill, turn this event plan into an 8-slide deck for a partner brand in the pop style, and give me the HTML file.

Naming the file, the audience, the length and what counts as done helps far more than “make it look nice”.

Why PCafe

Why use PCafe for slides in Doubao Work

Fixed templates that hold their layout

Doubao Work only writes your content into PCafe’s 270-plus open-source templates; layout, type sizes and colour come from the template, so the deck doesn’t change shape every time.

Delivered only at PASS

Every slide has text limits. Overflow, overlap and tiny type fail the check, and Doubao Work trims or splits slides and checks again until PASS.

One offline HTML file

The result is one HTML file that presents with a double-click and no network; it also exports to PDF and editable PowerPoint.

Questions

PCafe × Doubao Work: questions

What does Doubao require of a skill folder?

At least one SKILL.md whose YAML header gives a name and description. pcafe already does; upload the whole folder.

Is PCafe free?

The open-source version is free for personal and commercial work and keeps a “Made with PCafe” credit. Pro adds 11 paid template packs and lets you remove the credit.

Can I get a PowerPoint file?

Yes. Have Doubao Work run npx pcafe pptx <name>; the text comes out as editable text boxes. PDF export works too.

Do I need Node.js?

Building the HTML needs Node.js 20.19 or later, and Doubao Work runs the npx commands. Without it, the skill falls back to a storyline and a slide-by-slide outline.

How do I install on Windows?

The npx skills command works in PowerShell too. The unzip one-liners are for macOS and Linux; on Windows, download pcafe-skill.zip and extract it into the matching skills folder under your user folder, for example %USERPROFILE%\.agents\skills.
