Usage Methods

Method 1: Search Existing Icons (Recommended)

Search from 200,000+ open source icons:

// Search icons
{
  "tool": "exec",
  "command": "python3 /root/.openclaw/skills/ppt-icon-generator/scripts/icon_search.py --query 'analytics' --limit 10"
}
// Download specific icon
{
  "tool": "exec",
  "command": "python3 /root/.openclaw/skills/ppt-icon-generator/scripts/icon_search.py --query 'chart-line' --download --output /root/.openclaw/workspace/chart.png"
}

Method 2: Generate with AI/Canvas

Use browser automation to generate icons via AI tools:

// Use Copilot/ChatGPT to generate icon
{
  "tool": "browser",
  "action": "open",
  "targetUrl": "https://copilot.microsoft.com"
}
// Prompt example:
// "Generate a minimalist icon of [DESCRIPTION], transparent background, 
//  suitable for PowerPoint, flat design style, single color"

Method 3: Create with Python (Pillow)

Generate simple geometric icons:

# Create basic shapes with transparency
python3 scripts/icon_generate.py --shape circle --color "#FF6B6B" --output icon.png
Create text-based icon
python3 scripts/icon_generate.py --text "AI" --bg-gradient "#667eea,#764ba2" --output ai_icon.png
