DOCX Editing
Official skill for reading and editing Word documents without breaking their formatting.
Use it for
Editing a contract or report where headings, styles, and numbering must survive
Skip it if
Generating a document from scratch when plain Markdown would do
What it is
An official skill for Word files that operates on the document model rather than on extracted text. It can read styles, insert paragraphs and tables, and preserve numbering when editing. The practical benefit is that the output opens cleanly in Word instead of arriving as a wall of unstyled text.
Install
Clone the repository, then copy the skill folder into your agent's skills directory — ~/.claude/skills/ for Claude Code. Skills are plain files: no build step, no daemon.

Read the SKILL.md before you install. A good skill states when it applies, what it must not do, and how to verify the result. A skill that only lists adjectives will change the agent's tone without improving its output — skip those.
