SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires defusedxml, and includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Working with Microsoft Word documents (.docx) programmatically requires handling complex OOXML structures, making document automation difficult and error-prone. This Skill abstracts away the XML complexity, enabling reliable creation, editing, and analysis of professional documents.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Document Creation: Generate new Word documents from scratch using JavaScript with full control over styles, tables, images, and formatting.
  • Redlining & Tracked Changes: Apply and manage tracked changes (insertions and deletions) for document review workflows, including support for nested changes and comment threading.
  • Text Extraction & Analysis: Extract clean text via pandoc or inspect raw XML for deep analysis of comments, formatting, and embedded media.
  • Use Case: A legal team can automatically apply revisions to a contract, add explanatory comments, and produce a clean reviewed document for client delivery.

Quick Start

Use the docx skill to create a new Word document titled "Project Proposal" with a centered title, three paragraphs of body text, and a two-column table listing key milestones.
