At a glance

A skill your agent uses whenever the user wants to create, read, edit, or manipulate Word documents (.docx files).

  • Works in 3 steps: Unpack → Edit XML → Pack
  • The user wants to create
  • SKILL.md covers Overview, Quick Reference, Creating New Documents and Editing Existing Documents, plus 2 more sections
  • Runs Python scripts from its folder; calls python, npm and pandoc

What it does

DOCX is an agent skill from rvdbreemen/OTGW-firmware. 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…

Its SKILL.md is about 4.3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 71 other files, including scripts (for example `scripts/__init__.py`, `scripts/accept_changes.py` and `scripts/comment.py`).

It sits in Documents & Office, covering Word documents. It works with Microsoft Word, Google Docs and Home Assistant. The repository describes itself as: A ESP8266 devkit firmware for the Nodoshop version of the Opentherm Gateway (OTGW).

When your agent uses it

  • The user wants to create
  • Manipulate Word documents (.docx files)
  • Include: any mention of Word doc
  • Requests to produce professional documents with formatting like tables of contents

Example prompts

  • “Word doc”
  • “word document”
  • “report”
  • “/docx”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • Node.js

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Unpack
  2. Edit XML
  3. Pack

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 5e66c3b. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships 14 files in scripts/ (Python, from the files we listed), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python
    • npm
    • pandoc
    • pdftoppm

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npm, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

DOCX loads about 4.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 198 tokens; SKILL.md has 882 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~198
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~4.3k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Proprietary) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 882 words (~4,279 tokens).
