Turn Markdown research and strategy outputs into office documents for sharing or presentation. Choose formats such as DOCX, PPTX, or PDF, organize sections for the audience, and apply consistent headings, tables, and slide formatting through document-skills.
Convert markdown to DOCX, PPTX, XLSX, PDF office documents — use when you need exportable deliverables
Review the instructions the agent will receive before you install.
Host: Codex CLI — This skill was designed for Claude Code and adapted for Codex. Cross-reference commands use installed skill names in Codex rather than
/octo:*slash commands. Use the active Codex shell and subagent tools. Do not claim a provider, model, or host subagent is available until the current session exposes it. For host tool equivalents, seeskills/blocks/codex-host-adapter.md.
Convert knowledge work outputs from markdown to professional office documents (DOCX, PPTX, XLSX).
This skill helps you transform knowledge work results into polished, deliverable documents:
Before converting documents, verify the document-skills plugin is installed:
/plugin list | grep document-skills
If not installed:
/plugin install document-skills@anthropic-agent-skills
Best for PPTX (PowerPoint):

Best for PDF:
Knowledge work outputs are stored in:
~/.claude-octopus/results/
List recent outputs:
ls -lht ~/.claude-octopus/results/ | head -10
Ask yourself:
The document-skills plugin provides these capabilities:
For DOCX (Word):
Use the /document-skills:docx skill to convert markdown to Word format.
Supports headings, lists, tables, and formatting.
For PPTX (PowerPoint):
Use the /document-skills:pptx skill to convert markdown to PowerPoint.
Each ## heading becomes a slide, bullet points auto-format.
For PDF:
Use the /document-skills:pdf skill to generate PDF documents.
Ideal for final deliverables and archival.
After conversion, consider:
User ran one workflow, wants one document:
User: "Export my latest synthesis to a Word document"
1. Check ~/.claude-octopus/results/ for most recent .md file
2. Identify it's from synthesize workflow
3. Recommend DOCX for academic report format
4. Use document-skills:docx to convert
5. Save to appropriate location
User wants to create a deck from research:
User: "Create a PowerPoint from this research"
1. Locate the research markdown
2. Identify key sections (## headings)
3. Use document-skills:pptx to convert
4. Each ## heading becomes a slide
5. Recommend adding title slide and summary
User wants multiple formats:
User: "Create both a Word doc and PowerPoint from this strategy"
1. Locate source markdown
2. Convert to DOCX using document-skills:docx
3. Convert to PPTX using document-skills:pptx
4. Provide both file paths
Input: ~/.claude-octopus/results/empathize-session-2026-01-18.md
Output Goal: Stakeholder presentation
Steps:
1. Read the empathize markdown
2. Extract persona sections
3. Convert to PPTX using document-skills:pptx
4. Each persona becomes a slide
5. Add title slide and key insights summary

3. Convert to DOCX using document-skills:docx
4. Apply academic formatting (citations, references)
5. Export to PDF for final version
6. Save as "AI-Safety-Literature-Review-2026-01-18.pdf"
If user requests export but no workflow was run:
Response: "I don't see any recent knowledge work outputs. Would you like to run:
- /octo:empathize (UX research)
- /octo:advise (strategic analysis)
- /octo:synthesize (literature review)
Then I can convert the results to your preferred format."
If user doesn't specify format:
Response: "I can convert this to:
- DOCX (Word) - Best for detailed documentation
- PPTX (PowerPoint) - Best for presentations
- PDF - Best for final deliverables
Which format would you prefer based on your use case?"
If multiple outputs exist:
Response: "I found several knowledge work outputs:
1. empathize-personas-2026-01-15.md (3 days ago)
2. advise-market-analysis-2026-01-18.md (today)
3. synthesize-research-2026-01-10.md (8 days ago)
Which would you like to convert?"
If plugin missing:
Response: "The document-skills plugin is required for conversion.
Install it with:
/plugin install document-skills@anthropic-agent-skills
Then I can convert your knowledge work to office formats."
This skill is designed to work seamlessly with the three knowledge mode workflows:
Knowledge Work Flow:
1. Run workflow: /octo:empathize (or advise/synthesize)
2. Review markdown output in ~/.claude-octopus/results/
3. Request conversion: "Export to PowerPoint"
4. This skill is used after explicit invocation
5. Professional document delivered
# List recent knowledge work outputs
ls -lht ~/.claude-octopus/results/ | head -5
# Check document-skills installed
/plugin list | grep document-skills
# Install document-skills
/plugin install document-skills@anthropic-agent-skills
# View specific markdown
cat ~/.claude-octopus/results/[filename].md

Interpret the saved results of a completed AI council review. Count verdicts, check whether enough participants responded and whether models are independent, surface substantive dissent, and explain what action the outcome supports.
Turn a technical choice into a structured debate between different AI model families. Assign explicit positions, launch the discussion, and summarize agreement, disagreement, and a recommendation supported by the strongest argument that survives the debate.
Clarify a feature’s requirements with multiple AI providers, combining technical constraints with user and business needs. Produce a scoped definition covering priorities, edge cases, exclusions, and a requirements checklist before implementation begins.
Review code or documents with available AI providers before delivery. Combine findings into a scored validation report that checks prior requirements and decisions, separates critical issues from warnings, and recommends next steps.
Develop complex features or business documents by gathering approaches from available AI providers. Combine their perspectives with prior project decisions and quality checks to produce a proposed plan, then proceed with implementation after user confirmation.
Research technical or business questions through multiple available AI providers, each assigned a different perspective. Combine usable results into a report covering findings, disagreements, evidence gaps, priorities, and recommended next steps.
