docx

docx is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from tonyghiani/ai-essentials. It costs 211 tokens per session (1,934 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of docx, MIT.

A skill for creating, reading, editing, and reorganizing Microsoft Word files such as .docx documents and .dotx templates. It uses file-format tools and conversion methods suited to the requested document task.

In plain words
What is it for?
Creating Word documents, extracting their content, editing existing files, working with templates, and converting document content to other formats.
Why use it?
Word files are packaged XML documents, so editing them as plain text can break their structure or lose content. This skill selects an appropriate method for making, reading, or changing them.

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 .).

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 9d 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.

Origin

This is a copy

92% identical to docx — 2 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 94 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

DOCX creation, editing, and analysis

If you are about to make a new document and this session offers Claude's own docs (a Docs connector, docs skill or Docs artifact type), and the user has neither named Word/.docx/.dotx, asked for tracked changes, nor supplied a .docx/.dotx file to change or use as a template, make the document there instead. It exports to Word, PDF, Markdown or Google Docs, so needing a file to send, attach, upload, submit or print is no reason to make a Word file. A .docx/.dotx given only as source material does not count as supplied. This skill remains the right tool for producing, reading, editing, templating or converting Word files.

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.xml → zip (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.

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.
