Export Preset Skill

Help user export a preset for sharing.

When to Use

Use this skill when:

• User wants to share their preset configuration
• User needs to backup their presets
• User wants to contribute a preset to the community

Steps

1. Identify Preset to Export Ask user which preset they want to export:

   • By name
   • By file path if they know it
   • Show available presets from presets/builtin/ and user directory

2. Validate Preset Check the preset JSON for:

   • Required fields: id, name, version, mouseId, mappings
   • Valid action references
   • Proper JSON syntax

3. Prepare for Sharing If sharing publicly, suggest:

   • Add descriptive description field
   • Add author field with attribution
   • Remove any personal/sensitive data
   • Add comments about intended workflow

4. Export Options

   Option A: File Export

   # In Slicer console
   import json
   from pathlib import Path
   
   preset_path = Path("~/.slicer/MouseMaster/presets/my_preset.json").expanduser()
   export_path = Path("~/Desktop/my_preset.json").expanduser()
   
   with open(preset_path) as f:
       preset = json.load(f)
   
   # Add metadata
   preset["author"] = "Your Name"
   preset["description"] = "Description of workflow"
   
   with open(export_path, "w") as f:
       json.dump(preset, f, indent=2)
   
   print(f"Exported to {export_path}")
   

   Option B: Clipboard Copy

   import json
   import qt
   
   with open(preset_path) as f:
       preset = json.load(f)
   
   clipboard = qt.QApplication.clipboard()
   clipboard.setText(json.dumps(preset, indent=2))
   print("Preset copied to clipboard")
   

5. Sharing Instructions

   For GitHub Discussion submission:

   ## Preset: [Name]
   
   **Mouse**: [Mouse Model]
   **Workflow**: [Description of what this preset is optimized for]
   
   ### Mappings
   - Back: [Action]
   - Forward: [Action]
   - ...
   
   ### Attached File
   [my_preset.json]
   
   ### Screenshots
   [Optional: show the workflow in action]
   

Preset Validation Checklist

• Has unique id
• Has descriptive name
• Has version field (use "1.0")
• mouseId matches a valid profile
• All action values are valid action IDs
• No empty mappings
• JSON syntax is valid

Example Preset Structure

{
  "id": "segmentation_optimized",
  "name": "Segmentation Optimized",
  "version": "1.0",
  "mouseId": "logitech_mx_master_3s",
  "author": "Username",
  "description": "Optimized for fast segmentation with segment navigation on thumb buttons",
  "mappings": {
    "back": {"action": "segment_previous"},
    "forward": {"action": "segment_next"},
    "thumb": {"action": "segment_editor_paint"}
  },
  "contextMappings": {
    "SegmentEditor": {
      "middle": {"action": "view_center_crosshair"}
    }
  }
}

Common Issues

"mouseId not found"

• Ensure the mouse profile exists
• Use exact ID from Resources/MouseDefinitions/

"Invalid action"

• Check action ID spelling
• Verify action is registered in ActionRegistry
