Anthropic DOCX Skill

npx degit anthropics/skills/skills/docx ~/.claude/skills/docx

The docx skill is the Word equivalent of pptx — it covers everything .docx-shaped, end to end.

What it can do

• Generate — full Word documents with formatting, headings, ToC, page numbers
• Letterheads — branded headers with logos and styled footers
• Tables of contents — auto-generated and updateable
• Track changes & comments — programmatic edit suggestions
• Image insertion / replacement — embed or swap figures by reference
• Find & replace — across long documents
• Analyze — extract text, structure, comments from existing .docx
• Convert — round-trip between .docx and other formats

Where it shines

• Consulting reports with consistent house style across many docs
• Legal letters and memos that need letterheads and version tracking
• Research papers for journals that require .docx submission
• Templates — programmatically populate a master template per client

Composes with

• pdf — convert finished .docx to PDF for distribution
• brand-guidelines — apply house typography (Poppins + Lora)
• theme-factory — apply a coherent color/font theme

Notes from curation

If your output deliverable is a Word file (not just “a document” loosely), this is the skill. Don’t use docx for HTML reports, slides, or PDFs — each has its own dedicated tool.

Use the docx skill to draft a 6-page consulting report with cover page,
table of contents, three sections with subheadings, embedded charts,
page numbers in the footer, and a custom letterhead on every page.
