What it does

DOCX is an agent skill from holon-run/holon. Create, inspect, edit, render, and validate Word documents with local open-source tools while preserving source files and making unsupported OOXML features explicit.

Its SKILL.md is about 990 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Documents & Office, covering Word documents. It works with Microsoft Word and LibreOffice. The repository describes itself as: An agent workbench for ongoing work: preserve goals and progress, connect events and schedules, and resume when the next condition is met. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Word documents

Example prompts

  • “/docx”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

8 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Confirm the document type, audience, language, page or word target, style
  2. Inspect an existing package before editing. Record styles, sections, headers
  3. Plan the heading hierarchy, sections, tables, figures, references, and page
  4. Select a backend and restrict changes to features it represents reliably.
  5. Write a new output file. Avoid raw OOXML edits unless the relationship and
  6. Reopen the result and verify expected headings, paragraph and table counts,
  7. Render to PDF or pages when possible. Inspect page breaks, widows and orphans,
  8. Sample-check important facts, citations, figures, and tables against source

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 671bd7a. 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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    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 986 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 43 tokens; SKILL.md has 506 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~43
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~986

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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

DOCX

Summary

Use this skill for .docx reports, memos, letters, meeting notes, proposals, and other word-processing documents. Prefer python-docx for common document structures and use an available local LibreOffice renderer for pagination and visual review.

This skill does not imply complete support for every Word or OOXML feature.

When To Use

  • Creating a structured document from notes, Markdown, or source material
  • Inspecting paragraphs, headings, tables, images, styles, and metadata
  • Making bounded edits to a conventional DOCX
  • Converting a DOCX to PDF for review
  • Checking document structure, pagination, and consistency

Safety Boundaries

  • Preserve the source and write a new .docx by default.
  • Treat macros, links, fields, embedded files, OLE objects, comments, revisions, and custom XML as untrusted input.
  • Never execute macros, update external fields, open embedded objects, or follow document links automatically.
  • Ask before resolving external assets or uploading content.
  • Do not claim lossless editing for content controls, complex fields, tracked changes, equations, signatures, embedded objects, or package parts not modeled by the selected library.

Use read-only analysis or create a new document when preserving unsupported features is material to the request.

Backend Selection

  • Use python-docx for common paragraphs, styles, lists, sections, tables, headers, footers, and images.
  • Use LibreOffice headless only when installed and approved as a local renderer or converter. Record the actual backend.
  • Use package-level XML inspection for risk inventory or verification, not as a default editing strategy.

Do not silently install Python packages, fonts, LibreOffice, or converters.

Workflow

  1. Confirm the document type, audience, language, page or word target, style guide, template, citations, output path, and whether comments or revisions must be preserved.
  2. Inspect an existing package before editing. Record styles, sections, headers and footers, tables, fields, links, comments, revisions, macros, signatures, embedded objects, and unknown parts.
  3. Plan the heading hierarchy, sections, tables, figures, references, and page furniture before generation.
  4. Select a backend and restrict changes to features it represents reliably.
  5. Write a new output file. Avoid raw OOXML edits unless the relationship and namespace effects are fully understood.
  6. Reopen the result and verify expected headings, paragraph and table counts, relationships, images, sections, headers, and footers.
  7. Render to PDF or pages when possible. Inspect page breaks, widows and orphans, clipped tables, heading placement, list numbering, headers, footers, and font substitution.
  8. Sample-check important facts, citations, figures, and tables against source material.

Quality Rules

  • Use semantic styles rather than formatting every paragraph independently.
  • Maintain a coherent heading hierarchy and consistent spacing.
  • Keep tables within page bounds and repeat header rows when appropriate.
  • Do not fabricate quotations, citations, legal language, or factual claims.
  • Record unresolved comments, revisions, fields, or links that remain.
  • Treat automatic tables of contents and fields as needing an actual update backend; writing field instructions alone does not prove displayed values.

Delivery

Report the output path, whether the source was unchanged, backend and fonts used, structural and rendered checks, citation or data sampling, and any impact on comments, revisions, fields, links, macros, signatures, or unsupported OOXML features. If rendering was unavailable, state that pagination was not verified.
