MCP server for Deckrun by Agentic Decks — generate presentation PDFs, narrated videos, and audio from Markdown. Built for AI agents and IDEs.
Deckrun is a document execution engine: your AI writes the content, Deckrun renders it into pixel-perfect branded PDFs, narrated MP4 videos, and MP3 audio — from a single Markdown source. No slide editor, no video tool, no audio studio.
**Install:** pip install deckrun-mcp
