- Environment
- Claude Code 2.x
Produced a 14-page report with a table of contents, numbered headings, styled tables and a letterhead. Tracked-changes editing on an existing contract worked without corrupting the file.
Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works
- Installs cleanly 5/5
- Triggers reliably 5/5
- Output vs. baseline 9/10
- Docs & honesty 5/5
What it does
The reference skill for .docx work. Claude writes actual Word files with proper styles, tables of contents, page numbers and letterheads, and can edit existing documents including tracked changes and comments. If you produce reports, memos or contracts, this is the first skill to install.
Before / after — same task, with and without the skill
Without the skill
Claude pastes a wall of markdown into chat; you spend 40 minutes reformatting it in Word, rebuilding the table of contents by hand.
With DOCX — Word Documents
A real .docx lands in your folder: styles, numbered headings, TOC, letterhead — opens clean in Word, tracked changes intact.
