## v2.0.20 — Slideshow theme optional for uploaded decks

Slideshow-to-video no longer requires a theme when you are converting an uploaded PDF or PowerPoint's original pages.

### Changed

- `POST /v1/workflows/slideshow-to-video` `slideshowThemeEntityId` is optional. Omit it to narrate the uploaded pages as they are. VideoGen derives a slideshow theme from those pages in the background so later slide edits can match the original deck. Pass a `SLIDESHOW_THEME` id when you want generated or edited slides to use a specific design system. A `SLIDESHOW_THEME` may now attach a PDF or PowerPoint as a reference, not only images.

### Added

- `POST /v1/tools/generate-motion-graphic` accepts optional `entityIds` (for example `["vg_enti_..."]`). Pass actor, product, or visual-style ids so the motion graphic can use those subjects as identity or reference, the same way generate-image does. You can combine `entityIds` with `fileIds`. A missing id returns not found. An inaccessible id returns a permission error.
