Details
From the project READMEslideport
Google Slides presentations and slides as MCP tools, talking to the Google Slides API v1. slideport is a clean-room rebuild of the core subset of the Google Slides MCP surface, under a new name: presentation and slide operations plus basic text editing, fresh code, no copied branding.
Tools (core subset, 9)
get_presentation, create_presentation, get_slide, create_slide,
duplicate_slide, delete_slide, create_textbox, insert_text,
replace_all_text.
Image, table and chart insertion, speaker notes, layout and master editing, thumbnail export, general presentations.batchUpdate passthrough and comments are not in this subset.
Setup
Set a Google OAuth access token:
export GOOGLE_ACCESS_TOKEN=ya29....
Optionally override the API base with SLIDES_API_URL
(default https://slides.googleapis.com/v1). Without the token, every
tool call fails with an error naming the missing variable.
CLI
npx @reneturcios/slideport get_presentation '{"presentation_id":"abc"}'
npx @reneturcios/slideport mcp # stdio MCP server
Each tool name is a subcommand taking one JSON object argument.

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
