| description | Word and DOCX editing alias for Documents and officecli-docx. |
Word DOCX
Use this skill when the user asks to create, edit, review, format, redline, comment on, or render Word/DOCX documents.
This is a strong routing skill, not a thin alias. Do not stop after reading this file.
For Word work, choose the smallest safe downstream instruction set before editing:
documents plugin skill for artifact creation, editing, redlines, comments, rendering, and layout verification.
doc for DOCX read/create/edit workflows.
officecli-docx for precise OfficeCLI-based .docx inspection and edits.
officecli when the task needs broader OfficeCLI examples, Word tables, figures, headers/footers, equations, or cross-format work.
lunwen-format-docx for Chinese thesis formatting.
Prefer structured DOCX tools over plain text rewriting when the file format, comments, tables, pagination, or layout matters.
Efficiency Gate
Use a targeted fast path for small, local, reversible edits: one formula style, one picture size/position/alt-text adjustment, one typo/text replacement, or one paragraph/list/table-cell formatting change.
Fast path requirements:
- Inspect the affected paragraph/run/table cell/image/equation before editing.
- Use the most direct structured edit available.
- Re-inspect only the affected object or immediate neighborhood after editing.
- Run
officecli validate or the cheapest equivalent structural check.
- Escalate to the full workflow if the target cannot be located precisely, validation fails, layout changes are visible/likely, or the user asks for final/client-ready output.
Full workflow is still required for thesis/formal documents, redlines/comments, templates, tables spanning pages, headers/footers, TOC, references, citations, tracked changes, multiple layout regions, pagination-sensitive work, or final PDF/print-ready delivery.
Quality rules:
- Never use this alias as the only context for a real DOCX job.
- Inspect the existing document structure before editing.
- Preserve the original file unless the user explicitly asks to overwrite it.
- For layout-sensitive deliverables, render pages to images and visually inspect them before claiming completion.
- For fast-path localized edits, do not render the whole document unless targeted checks show layout risk.
- For thesis, forms, tables, headers/footers, tracked changes, comments, references, TOC, or equations, read the relevant downstream task guide or OfficeCLI section first.
