md-to-docx is a skill in brycewang-stanford/Auto-Empirical-Research-Skills, last changed 18 Jun 2026. It can change agent settings, run shell commands, reach the network, bundle scripts, pre-approve tools and include files we can't read — read the findings before installing.

From the author

Convert Markdown files to Word documents (.docx) with proper formatting, Chinese font support (FangSong for all text including headings), black font color, 1.5x line spacing, precise first-line indent (24pt), heading spacing after (1 line), no italic headings, and automatic superscript conversion for citation numbers. Use when converting .md files to .docx, creating Word documents from markdown, or when user mentions Word, DOCX, or document conversion. Requires pandoc.

Install

Each tab says whether it installs commit bfa0a6e, the one we checked, or the latest version.

OpenCode also looks in .agents/skills/ and ~/.agents/skills/, so use the Any agent steps.

Goose also looks in .agents/skills/ and ~/.agents/skills/, so use the Any agent steps.

Windsurf (Devin Desktop) also looks in .agents/skills/ and ~/.agents/skills/, so use the Any agent steps.

Zed also looks in .agents/skills/ and ~/.agents/skills/, so use the Any agent steps.

Roo Code also looks in .agents/skills/ and ~/.agents/skills/, so use the Any agent steps.

Factory Droid also looks in .agents/skills/ and ~/.agents/skills/, so use the Any agent steps.

Junie also looks in .agents/skills/ and ~/.agents/skills/, so use the Any agent steps.

Amp also looks in .agents/skills/ and ~/.agents/skills/, so use the Any agent steps.

No install command here reaches Kiro. Copy the skill's folder into .kiro/skills/ in your project, or ~/.kiro/skills/ for all your projects. brycewang-stanford/Auto-Empirical-Research-Skills/skills/67-econfin-workflow-toolkit/md-to-docx (opens in a new tab)

Antigravity also looks in .agents/skills/, so the Any agent steps reach it with This project. For All projects, see where Antigravity looks.

Cline also looks in .claude/skills/, so the Claude Code steps reach it with This project. For All projects, see where Cline looks.

No tab for your agent? Use Any agent for OpenCode, Goose, Windsurf (Devin Desktop), Zed, Roo Code, Factory Droid, Junie and Amp. With This project, Any agent also reaches Antigravity and Claude Code reaches Cline. Kiro needs the folder copied by hand.

Gemini CLI docs

Pinned to commit bfa0a6e, the one we checked.

OpenCode, Goose, Windsurf (Devin Desktop), Zed, Roo Code, Factory Droid, Junie, Amp and Antigravity read .agents/skills in a project.

From your project's root folder:

tmp="$(mktemp -d)" &&git clone -q --depth 1 --filter=blob:none --no-checkout https://github.com/brycewang-stanford/Auto-Empirical-Research-Skills.git "$tmp" &&git -C "$tmp" fetch -q --depth 1 origin bfa0a6e5a843babbf45a1ef1663fd5dc4f07c0ba &&git -C "$tmp" sparse-checkout set -- skills/67-econfin-workflow-toolkit/md-to-docx &&git -C "$tmp" checkout -q bfa0a6e5a843babbf45a1ef1663fd5dc4f07c0ba &&mkdir -p .agents/skills &&mkdir .agents/skills/md-to-docx &&cp -R "$tmp"/skills/67-econfin-workflow-toolkit/md-to-docx/. .agents/skills/md-to-docx/ &&rm -rf "$tmp"

Or use the skills CLI from skills.sh. Installs the latest version, not the one we checked. The skills CLI reports installs to skills.sh unless you set DISABLE_TELEMETRY=1.

What it can touch

From the files and frontmatter at commit bfa0a6e. This is how much a skill can do, not whether it is risky.

Changes agent settings
It writes to agent memory or settings files such as CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or .claude/settings.json.
DISTRIBUTION.md:90 (opens in a new tab) · INSTALLATION.md:10 (opens in a new tab) · INSTALLATION.md:34 (opens in a new tab) and 1 more
Runs shell commands
Its instructions or files give the agent commands to run on your computer.
Reaches the network
It sends or fetches data over the internet, for example with curl, an HTTP library or a package install.
Bundles scripts
The folder holds code files the agent may run.
fix_tables.py (opens in a new tab)
Pre-approves tools
Its allowed-tools field lists tools the agent may use without asking you first, in agents that honour it.
SKILL.md:4 (opens in a new tab)
Includes files we can't read
It ships binaries, archives or documents whose contents this check cannot look inside.

We checked every text file in this skill, at commit bfa0a6e on 3 Nov 2026, against 45 published patterns such as download-and-run commands, hidden text and credential access. We don't run the skill, we don't read the web pages it points to, and we can't judge everything its instructions might lead an agent to do. In published tests, pattern checks like this one missed most malicious skills. Read the skill before you install it — especially anything it asks you to download or run.

Format check

Each agent reads SKILL.md a little differently. We check the file against each one's published rules; we don't run the skill in any agent.

Agent Skills specPasses
The open format from agentskills.io, held to the strictest version of each rule among the agents we check.
- Note
  The first sentence of the description is 319 characters. Agents shorten long descriptions, so lead with the main job. D8
  Fix: Start with one short sentence that names the job.
- Note
  There is no license field, so readers can't tell whether they may reuse the skill. O2
  Fix: Add license: with an SPDX name such as MIT or Apache-2.0, or the name of a bundled licence file.
- Note
  Reference files that SKILL.md doesn't link: DISTRIBUTION.md and INSTALLATION.md. Anthropic suggests linking every reference file directly from SKILL.md. B4
  Fix: Link each one from SKILL.md and say when to read it.
- Note
  Reference files over 100 lines with no table of contents at the top: DISTRIBUTION.md (210 lines), INSTALLATION.md (131 lines) and 快速使用指南.md (152 lines). B5
  Fix: Add a short list of the sections at the top of each.
Claude CodePasses
Claude Code reads its own extra fields, ignores unknown ones, and still loads a skill whose frontmatter is broken, without its fields.
- Note
  The first sentence of the description is 319 characters. Agents shorten long descriptions, so lead with the main job. D8
  Fix: Start with one short sentence that names the job.
- Note
  Reference files that SKILL.md doesn't link: DISTRIBUTION.md and INSTALLATION.md. Anthropic suggests linking every reference file directly from SKILL.md. B4
  Fix: Link each one from SKILL.md and say when to read it.
- Note
  Reference files over 100 lines with no table of contents at the top: DISTRIBUTION.md (210 lines), INSTALLATION.md (131 lines) and 快速使用指南.md (152 lines). B5
  Fix: Add a short list of the sections at the top of each.
Claude apps & API uploadPasses
Uploading to claude.ai or the Claude API, or packaging with Anthropic's script, accepts only the six spec fields and stops on anything else.
- Note
  The description is 473 characters. The claude.ai Help Center says 200 at most, though Anthropic's API docs and validator allow 1,024. D4
  Fix: If the claude.ai upload refuses it, trim the description to 200 characters.
- Note
  Reference files that SKILL.md doesn't link: DISTRIBUTION.md and INSTALLATION.md. Anthropic suggests linking every reference file directly from SKILL.md. B4
  Fix: Link each one from SKILL.md and say when to read it.
- Note
  Reference files over 100 lines with no table of contents at the top: DISTRIBUTION.md (210 lines), INSTALLATION.md (131 lines) and 快速使用指南.md (152 lines). B5
  Fix: Add a short list of the sections at the top of each.
OpenAI (Codex & API)Passes
Codex finds SKILL.md by its exact name and needs a description; OpenAI's Skills API checks the frontmatter against the spec and caps uploads.
- Note
  The first sentence of the description is 319 characters. Agents shorten long descriptions, so lead with the main job. D8
  Fix: Start with one short sentence that names the job.
VS Code & CopilotPasses
