Description
Convert a Markdown file or raw Markdown string into a polished Word DOCX document. Supports custom Word template files, includes built-in DOCX templates, and...
Usage Guidance
This skill appears to do what it says: it calls pandoc to convert Markdown into .docx using either built-in or user-supplied templates. Before installing or running it: (1) ensure pandoc is installed and on PATH (the metadata omitted this requirement), (2) review any custom template files you pass (the script will read them from your filesystem), and (3) note the script prints JSON that includes local paths (output and template), so avoid passing sensitive filesystem paths if you don't want them exposed in logs or agent output. If you want extra assurance, inspect scripts/build_builtin_templates.py and scripts/markdown_to_docx.py directly (they are small, local Python scripts and do not perform network operations).
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: markdown-to-word
Version: 0.4.0
The skill is a legitimate utility for converting Markdown files or strings into Word documents using the 'pandoc' library. The implementation in 'scripts/markdown_to_docx.py' and 'scripts/build_builtin_templates.py' follows security best practices by using subprocess.run with argument lists to prevent shell injection and handles file operations using standard library functions. No evidence of data exfiltration, unauthorized network access, or malicious prompt injection was found in the code or documentation.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The skill's name, description, SKILL.md, and included scripts all align with converting Markdown to DOCX using pandoc and optional reference DOCX templates. One small inconsistency: the SKILL.md and scripts clearly require pandoc on PATH, but the registry metadata lists no required binaries — the skill should declare pandoc as a required binary.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md instructs the agent to run the included Python script which invokes pandoc to perform conversion. The instructions stay within the conversion task (accepting a file or raw markdown, applying a template, handling resource paths). They do not direct the agent to read unrelated system files or exfiltrate data. The script prints a JSON summary (including filesystem paths), so be aware that output includes local path information.
Install Mechanism
There is no install spec (instruction-only plus bundled scripts), so nothing is downloaded or executed on install. The runtime requires an external binary (pandoc) already present; no package downloads or archive extraction are performed by the skill itself.
Credentials
The skill requests no environment variables, secrets, or credentials. It accepts user-supplied template and resource paths (local filesystem), which is expected for template-based conversion.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill is not marked always:true and does not request system-wide configuration or other skills' credentials. It runs as a user-invoked skill and does not demand elevated or persistent privileges.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install markdown-to-word - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/markdown-to-word - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
