#!/usr/bin/env python3 """ Transition Timing — generates transitions-timing.pptx demonstrating the slide-transition timing knobs: speed token vs millisecond duration, plus the auto-advance / click-to-advance controls. Speed token (legacy CT_SlideTransition @spd, PowerPoint 97+): fast / medium|med / slow (e.g. fade-slow) Duration in ms (CT_TransitionStartSoundAction @dur extLst, Office 2010+): integer ms (e.g. fade-1500 -> 1.5 seconds) Auto-advance: advanceTime= auto-advance after N milliseconds (or 'none' to clear) advanceClick=false disable click-to-advance (default true, stripped from XML when true) SDK twin of transitions-timing.sh (officecli CLI). Both produce an equivalent transitions-timing.pptx. This one drives the **officecli Python SDK** (`pip install officecli-sdk`): one resident is started and every slide, shape, and transition is shipped over the named pipe in a single `doc.batch(...)` round-trip. Each item is the same `{"command","parent","type","props"}` / `{"command","path","props"}` dict you'd put in an `officecli batch` list.
