Skill for Claude CodeCodex

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one.

Needs its repository: it reads a path above its own folder, which exists only inside the repository. The line is (cd unpacked && rm -f ../out.docx && zip -Xr ../out.docx .).

Good fit Use it to generate or modify Word documents and templates, extract their content, and create formatted documents with headings, tables, and page layouts.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

docx scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 5d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 15 executable files (scripts/__init__.py, scripts/accept_changes.py, scripts/comment.py, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

DOCX creation, editing, and analysis

A .docx is a ZIP archive of XML files. Choose your approach by task:

Task Approach
Create a new document Write a docx (npm) script — see gotchas below
Edit an existing document unzip → edit word/document.xmlzip (docx-js cannot open existing files)
Read content pandoc -t markdown file.docx

Script paths below are relative to this skill's directory.

Creating with docx-js — gotchas

docx is preinstalled — do not run npm install first; write the script and require('docx') directly. Only if that require fails: npm install docx. The model knows the API; these are the footguns:

  • Page size defaults to A4. For US Letter set page: { size: { width: 12240, height: 15840 } } (DXA; 1440 = 1″).
  • Landscape: pass portrait dimensions and orientation: PageOrientation.LANDSCAPE — docx-js swaps width/height internally.
  • Tables need dual widths: set columnWidths on the table AND width on every cell, both in WidthType.DXA (PERCENTAGE breaks in Google Docs). Column widths must sum to the table width.
  • Table shading: use ShadingType.CLEAR, never SOLID (renders black).
  • Lists: never insert literally; use a numbering config with LevelFormat.BULLET.
  • ImageRun requires type: ("png", "jpg", …).
  • PageBreak must be inside a Paragraph.
  • Never use \n — use separate Paragraph elements.
  • TOC: headings must use built-in HeadingLevel.*; custom heading styles need outlineLevel set or they won't appear.
  • Don't use a table as a horizontal rule — use a paragraph bottom border instead.
  • Dot-leader / right-aligned-on-same-line: use PositionalTab (alignment: PositionalTabAlignment.RIGHT, leader: PositionalTabLeader.DOT) inside a TextRun, not literal . or space padding.

Verify the output

After writing a .docx, render it and look at it:

python scripts/office/soffice.py --headless --convert-to pdf output.docx
pdftoppm -jpeg -r 100 output.pdf page
ls page-*.jpg   # then Read the images

What ships with it

60 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
