Use this skill whenever a Microsoft Word (.docx) file is being produced, opened, transformed, or read. That includes: drafting reports, letters, contracts, RFPs, technical documents, or any long-form written deliverable; extracting text or structure from an existing Word file; filling a Word template with values; converting Word to PDF or plain text; splitting or merging documents; inspecting styles, headings, sections, tables, images, comments, or tracked changes. Trigger on mentions of 'Word doc', 'DOCX', 'Office document', a filename ending in .docx, or requests like 'turn this into a Word report'.

The skill exposes the agent to untrusted, user-generated content from public third-party sources, creating a risk of indirect prompt injection. This includes browsing arbitrary URLs, reading social media posts or forum comments, and analyzing content from unknown websites.
The required workflow for reading/extracting docx text (SKILL.md decision matrix → `read.md` → `scripts/extract_text.py`) parses and outputs plain text from the input `.docx`’s `word/document.xml` (and optionally `word/comments.xml` etc.); if that `.docx` was provided by an outsider, the document’s free-form body text will be ingested into the agent/LLM context via the script’s stdout.
