Connect Slides to Claude, ChatGPT, and other AI tools

Connect Slides to the AI assistant you already use, and it can find, summarize, create, and edit your presentations for you. To connect, add the Slides server URL to your AI tool and sign in to Slides:

Claude Code (terminal)

Add Slides from your terminal:

claude mcp add --transport http slides https://mcp.slides.com/

Then run /mcp in Claude Code, select slides, and choose Authenticate to sign in to Slides.

Codex CLI

Add Slides from your terminal. The second command opens your browser so you can sign in to Slides:

codex mcp add slides --url https://mcp.slides.com/
codex mcp login slides

Cursor

Add Slides to your mcp.json file:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "Slides.com": {
      "url": "https://mcp.slides.com/"
    }
  }
}

Cursor opens your browser so you can sign in to Slides and click Allow access.

Other AI tools

Most AI tools that support MCP servers work the same way. Open the tool's connector or MCP settings, add https://mcp.slides.com/ as a new server, and sign in to Slides when prompted. See the MCP Server documentation for technical details.

Access levels

When you sign in, choose how much the tool can do:

• Full access lets it create, edit, share, and export presentations. Choose this if you want it to build or update decks for you.
• Read-only lets it view your presentations without making changes.

Try it out

Once connected, try a prompt like:

• “List my most recent presentations on Slides.”
• “Summarize my Q3 planning deck.”
• “Create a five-slide presentation about our product roadmap.”

For example, this conversation in Claude shows a request for a presentation about the periodic table and a full interactive preview of the resulting deck. You can browse the slides right in the conversation, then click Edit in Slides.com to open the deck in Slides and make changes:

Disconnect

Open Connected apps in your Slides settings and click Disconnect next to the tool. It loses access right away.

If the tool can view presentations but can't change them, it was connected with Read-only access. Disconnect it, then connect again and choose Full access.
