How the agent did it
- Give Codex the Harness Engineering topic and Presentations skill.
- Let it research, structure and generate the initial editable deck.
- Inspect screenshots and request cover, font and style changes.
Huang Yihe documents a Codex desktop experiment creating a presentation about Harness Engineering with the Presentations skill. Codex read the skill instructions, developed a narrative, researched the topic and generated slides. The author reports an initial run of about eight minutes, including screenshots of every slide and two quality-check rounds.
The author then requested a cover slide, Alibaba PuHuiTi typography and a minimalist technology style. The completed output was an editable PowerPoint, with text boxes and other elements available for later changes. A second run separated slide wording from visual production: Codex listed the text as numbered pages for approval before using the presentation skill.
That text review caught an unnecessary cover subtitle and too much text on slides two and three. Huang revised wording before production and describes supplying two manually prepared slides as style references in regular work. The useful detail is that content approval and screenshot inspection address different failure modes: a deck can have valid code but poor rendering, or attractive slides with weak wording. The account reports successful revisions in a firsthand demonstration, not a benchmark of factual correctness. The original publication was in May; the English translation appeared in October and should not replace the source's original date.
