## What it is
A Windows-only Python toolkit that lets AI agents control desktop applications (WPS/MS Office, Zotero, Adobe Illustrator) via COM automation through 47 CLI commands and 27 academic skills. It includes data-driven PPT generation pipelines and SVG-to-PPTX export for automated document and presentation creation.

## Use cases
- automate word excel powerpoint from an ai agent
- generate pptx presentations from json data
- manage zotero references and write literature reviews
- create vector graphics in adobe illustrator via cli
- convert documents to pdf docx xlsx programmatically
- run academic paper writing and peer review pipelines
- batch edit spreadsheets and slides via com automation

## When to choose
- you are on Windows with WPS or MS Office installed and want scriptable office automation
- you want an AI agent to drive desktop apps like Zotero or Illustrator
- you need automated academic workflows from literature search to paper writing
- you want data-driven, template-based PPT generation

## When to avoid
- you are on macOS or Linux, since it depends on Windows COM
- you need cross-platform headless document processing
- you do not have the target desktop applications installed
- you need a GUI rather than CLI-driven automation
