Docx

Use this skill whenever the user wants to create, read, edit, or manipulate Word documents (.docx files). Triggers include: any mention of 'Word doc', 'word document', '.docx', or requests to produce professional documents with formatting like tables of contents, headings, page numbers, or letterheads. Also use when extracting or reorganizing content from .docx files, inserting or replacing images in documents, performing find-and-replace in Word files, working with tracked changes or comments, or converting content into a polished Word document. If the user asks for a 'report', 'memo', 'letter', 'template', or similar deliverable as a Word or .docx file, use this skill. Do NOT use for PDFs, spreadsheets, Google Docs, or general coding tasks unrelated to document generation.

30-Second Summary

Docx is an agent-readable workflow from anthropics/skills for docx.

It gives the agent a trigger, ordered guidance, and source-backed checks instead of treating docx as a generic tool.

Use it as a brief only while the linked SKILL.md remains available and the risk boundary is still accurate.

1-Minute Read

What it is

Docx packages instructions from anthropics/skills into a reusable agent skill brief. The original source is a public SKILL.md file, so the brief can point readers back to the executable workflow instead of a product landing page.

When to use it

Use it when a user asks for help around docx and the agent needs a repeatable workflow, checklist, or review path rather than broad background information.

How to test it first

Open the linked SKILL.md, confirm the trigger and procedure still match docx, list the risk boundary, then ask the agent to apply the smallest read-only step to a sample task.

Watch out

Do not present this as a generic app or platform. Keep the scope tied to anthropics/skills. Risk boundary: git state, commit, branch, PR, or push actions require explicit repo-owner approval before mutation; Anthropic skill package; keep the scope tied to the referenced SKILL.md and bundled resources.
