OfficeCLI is a standalone command-line Office suite that lets AI agents read, edit, render, and automate Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files without requiring Microsoft Office. Developers and other users employ it to create and inspect documents through commands, with HTML or PNG rendering supporting visual review. The catalogue skills teach coding agents how to install and use OfficeCLI.
Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

SkillSpector: 2 findings, up to high
These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →
- high Supply Chain · line 16 Remote code is downloaded and executed. This bypasses code review and could introduce malicious code.Fix: Avoid downloading and executing remote scripts. Use trusted packages from PyPI/npm. If remote fetch is required, verify checksums and use HTTPS.
- medium Agent Snooping · line 35 Skill enumerates or reads other installed skills. Access to other skills' SKILL.md files or the skills directory reveals prompt instructions, capabilities, and secrets that should be invisible to peer skills.Fix: Remove all code or instructions that list or read other skills' files or directories. Skills should operate independently; cross-skill access is a privilege escalation.
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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00141 | $0.11868 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00056 | $0.04747 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00028 | $0.02374 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00014 | $0.01187 |
Grade A, and why
officecli-academic-paper 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 1mo ago.
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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 508 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
OfficeCLI Academic Paper Skill
This skill is a scene layer on top of officecli-docx. Every docx hard rule — style architecture, heading hierarchy, shell quoting, page-break rules, live PAGE field, Delivery Gate, renderer quirks — is inherited, not re-taught. This file adds only what academic papers need on top: citation styles, equations, SEQ / PAGEREF cross-refs, multi-column journal layout, bibliography hanging indent, abstract/keywords/affiliation block.
When the docx base rules cover it, the text here says → see docx v2 §X. Read docx v2 first if you have not.
Setup
If officecli is missing:
- macOS / Linux:
curl -fsSL https://d.officecli.ai/install.sh | bash - Windows (PowerShell):
irm https://d.officecli.ai/install.ps1 | iex
Verify with officecli --version (open a new terminal if PATH hasn't picked up). If install fails, download a binary from https://github.com/iOfficeAI/OfficeCLI/releases.
⚠️ Help-First Rule
This skill teaches what an academic paper requires, not every command flag. When a prop name, enum value, or field instruction is uncertain, consult help BEFORE guessing.
officecli help docx # All docx elements
officecli help docx <element> # Full schema (e.g. section, equation, field, footnote)
officecli help docx <element> --json # Machine-readable
Help is pinned to the installed CLI version. When this skill and help disagree, help wins. Every --prop X= in this file has been grep-verified against officecli help docx <element> — if help adds / renames a prop in a later version, trust help.
Mental Model & Inheritance
Inherits docx v2. You should have read skills/officecli-docx/SKILL.md first. This skill assumes you know how to add paragraphs, set styles, build tables, insert images, manage TOC/footer/headers, force page breaks, and run the Delivery Gate. If any of those are unfamiliar, open a second session on docx v2 before continuing.
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.
