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 (Word: File > Save As > Word Document (.docx)) first.
