quickstart

 * **`skill_id: "pptx"`:** The PowerPoint Skill identifier
 * **`version: "latest"`:** The Skill version set to the most recently published
 * **`tools`:** Enables code execution (required for Skills)
-* **Beta header:** `skills-2025-10-02`
 
 <Note>
-  The examples on this page use the `code_execution_20260521` tool version, which is generally available and needs only the `skills-2025-10-02` beta header. The Step 3 code parses the result types that current tool versions return. Skills also work with older [code execution tool](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/agents-and-tools/tool-use/code-execution-tool) versions such as `code_execution_20250825`: any current code execution tool version satisfies the Skills requirement. If you use a different version, keep its tool `type` and any beta header consistent with the code execution tool page, and always include `skills-2025-10-02`.
+  Skills are generally available on the Claude API and don't require a beta header. The examples on this page still send the `skills-2025-10-02` beta header and use the SDKs' `beta` namespace. Both remain valid, so you can run the examples as written and omit the header in your own requests.

 When you make this request, Claude automatically matches your task to the relevant Skill. Because you asked for a presentation, Claude determines the PowerPoint Skill is relevant and loads its full instructions: the second level of progressive disclosure. Then Claude runs the Skill's code to create your presentation.
