document-gen-resilient-multiformat

document-gen-resilient-multiformat is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from HKUDS/OpenSpace. It costs 29 tokens per session (3,751 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A document-generation workflow for producing DOCX, PDF, and HTML files from shared source material. It checks the environment, handles special characters, and can use alternative tools when a preferred document or PDF engine is unavailable.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create documents in several formats, verify required tools before generation, isolate errors by step, and produce a fallback output when the primary method fails.
Why use it?
It reduces failed builds and garbled text when documents contain Unicode characters or when required conversion software is missing.

About the project

OpenSpace is a skill-management layer for AI agents that stores, retrieves, evaluates, shares, and improves reusable workflows. It is intended for people using multiple coding agents who want skills to be reused and refined based on task outcomes. The catalogue provides 200 skills for use with OpenSpace and the agents it supports.

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

document-gen-resilient-multiformat 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 10d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (sanitize_for_pdf.sh), 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.

Resilient Document Generation Workflow (Multi-Format + Unicode-Safe)

When to Use

Use this skill when generating documents in multiple formats (.docx, .pdf, .html) and you need:

  • Reliable execution with pre-flight environment verification
  • Automatic Unicode handling based on target format
  • Fallback options when primary tools (pandoc/LaTeX) are unavailable
  • Clear error isolation through discrete, observable steps

Trigger this workflow when:

  • shell_agent returns unknown/unclear errors on document generation
  • You need multiple output formats from one source
  • Documents contain special characters, symbols, or non-ASCII text
  • Previous PDF generation attempts failed due to encoding or missing dependencies

Pre-Flight Environment Check

Before starting, verify your environment has the required tools:

run_shell
command: which pandoc && pandoc --version | head -1
run_shell
command: which pdflatex || which xelatex || which wkhtmltopdf || echo "No PDF engine found"
run_shell
command: python3 -c "import fpdf; print('fpdf2 available')" 2>/dev/null || echo "fpdf2 not available"
run_shell
command: python3 -c "import reportlab; print('reportlab available')" 2>/dev/null || echo "reportlab not available"

If pandoc is missing: Install via apt-get install pandoc or brew install pandoc

If no PDF engine found: Choose fallback approach:

  • Install LaTeX: apt-get install texlive-latex-recommended texlive-fonts-recommended
  • Or use wkhtmltopdf: apt-get install wkhtmltopdf
  • Or use Python fallback (fpdf2/reportlab) - see Alternative PDF Generation section

Core Technique

Split the workflow into discrete, observable steps with automatic format detection:

  1. Environment check → Verify tools are available
  2. Content creation → Use write_file to create source Markdown
  3. Auto-sanitization → Conditionally sanitize based on target format (PDF needs it, DOCX/HTML don't)
  4. Format conversion → Use appropriate tool for each format with fallback options
  5. Verification → Check output files exist and validate content

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.
