Slide is Arinova's presentation product. Its three levels are a deck, its ordered slides, and the structured elements inside each slide; speaker notes belong to a slide. Use Doc for paged text, Sheet for cells and formulas, Form for responses, or Mindmap for nodes and edges. Requests for a deck, presentation, ppt, or slides belong here; when the user asks for more than one Office product, route every requested family.

The registry exposes exactly 20 live Slide Actions. Deck operations are `list_decks`, `create_deck`, `import_deck`, `get_deck`, `update_deck`, `archive_deck`, `unarchive_deck`, `delete_deck`, and `export_deck`. Editing uses `list_slides`, `add_slide`, `update_slide`, `delete_slide`, `reorder_slides`, and `duplicate_slide`; history uses `list_versions`, `get_version`, `create_named_version`, `restore_version`, and `copy_version`. `create_deck` requires the complete ordered `slides[]` and commits the deck and its slides atomically; it does not generate an implicit blank slide.

Owners can import `.pptx`, `.md`, or `.markdown` as a new editable deck. Local sources remain in File Center; an existing item is reused by `fileId`. `import_deck` returns the deck ID, slide count, and import report, and never replaces the open deck. `export_deck` saves PDF to the triggering user's personal File Center.

`delete_deck`, `delete_slide`, and `restore_version` require UserConfirm. Other Actions need no action-level confirmation. Every Slide Action is private-only and subject to registry scopes and runtime authorization; current schemas, results, persisted state, and typed errors are authoritative.
