What it does

DOCX is an agent skill from nexu-io/open-design. Create, edit, and analyze Word documents with tracked changes, comments, and formatting. Useful for design briefs, copy docs, and review-ready deliverables.

Its SKILL.md is about 320 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. The repository describes itself as: 🎨 Best DeepSeek Harness Design Plugin. The open-source Claude Design alternative. 🖥️ Local-first desktop app. 🖼️ Your coding agent becomes the design engine: prototypes… The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Word documents

Example prompts

  • “/docx”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d9dd6fe. 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 (its code samples are bash).

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

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • github.com

    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 320 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 40 tokens; SKILL.md has 100 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~40
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~320

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.

How to use

This catalogue entry advertises the skill in OpenDesign so the agent discovers it during planning. To run the full upstream workflow with its original assets, scripts, and references, install the upstream bundle into your active agent's skills directory:

bash
# Inspect the upstream README for exact paths
open https://github.com/anthropics/skills/tree/main/skills/docx

Then ask the agent to invoke this skill by name (docx) or with one of the trigger phrases listed in this skill's frontmatter.
