Nebula Slides — slides that read like a document and edit like an API

One slide. Every surface.

A deck is a folder of semantic .slide.html files. Everything — the browser studio, the MCP tools, the built-in agents — edits the same validated model, and every write is undoable.

For people

A studio in the browser

Select and drag any node, watch the SVG update live, and reach for layers, an inspector, and light/dark themes. Runs entirely on your machine.

For agents

An API for your slides

37 validated operations against stable node ids, compact ~1 KB responses, atomic batches, session undo. Agents patch nodes, not pixels.

For both

Your agent, built in

An assistant panel drives Claude Code or Codex through the same operations — or open the integrated terminal and drive the real CLI yourself, in the deck.

The real CLI, in the editor

The Terminal drawer hosts a live claude code (or codex, or plain shell) session in your deck, with the slide tools preconfigured. Sessions persist across reloads — even full-screen TUIs reattach cleanly — and a bell badge tells you when a hidden agent needs attention.

Collaborate without handing over your AI

Share a deck with an ID. Collaborators run their own editor and sync content in real time through a relay — while every AI action runs on its owner's machine with their own credentials. A share grants access to the deck, never to anyone's agent.

Node-level merging

Concurrent edits to different elements merge cleanly; same-element edits resolve deterministically on every replica.

Offline-friendly

Edits queue while you're disconnected and merge on reconnect. Files stay the source of truth on your disk.

Transparent repairs

When a merge needs a fix — an orphaned element, a dangling connector — you get told, never silently rewritten.

Share dialog with sync status, share ID, and live collaborator presence

Presence, sync status, and the share ID — collaboration in one dialog.

Get started

Run the editor. Clone the repo, install, and start — your deck opens at localhost:4318.

Point your agent at it. Add the MCP server to Claude Code, Codex, or any MCP client — or just use the built-in assistant and terminal.

Share when you're ready. One click mints a share ID; collaborators join with their own editor.

# run the studio
git clone https://github.com/zhoulab/slides-mcp
cd slides-mcp && npm install
npm run editor:start

# or register the MCP server (claude code)
claude mcp add slides -- npm run mcp:stdio
