Individual skill

convert-word-to-md

Converts Word (.docx) documents into Markdown so their contents can be accurately analyzed, summarized, searched, or extracted from. Use this skill whenever the user shares, references, or asks about a .docx file — even if they don't say "convert" or "markdown" explicitly. This includes requests to "read", "summarize", "review", "extract data from", "compare", or "analyze" a Word document, resume, report, contract, or proposal. Always run the bundled conversion script to produce Markdown first; do not attempt to parse .docx content directly or write ad-hoc conversion code. Also use this skill for batch requests involving a whole folder of Word documents. IMPORTANT: When the user references a folder or set of documents containing multiple file types (.pdf, .docx, .xlsx), invoke ALL three sibling skills — convert-pdf-to-md, convert-word-to-md, and convert-excel-to-md — so no file type is silently skipped.

# Convert Word to Markdown

## When to use this skill

Trigger this skill any time there is a `.docx` file that needs to be
understood or processed — for example, a user attaches a Word document and
asks questions about it, wants a summary, wants specific data pulled out, or
wants multiple Word documents in a folder processed together. Word's native
`.docx` format is a zipped XML bundle that is not reliably readable as plain
text, so always convert it to Markdown first using the script in this
skill rather than trying to open or parse the file directly.

This skill only supports `.docx`. If asked to convert a legacy `.doc` file,
tell the user it isn't supported and ask them to re-save it as `.docx`
