What DOCX — Word Documents 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.

A real .docx lands in your folder: styles, numbered headings, TOC, letterhead — opens clean in Word, tracked changes intact.
