doc-to-markdown
From the author
Reads or converts documents in a research workflow, including PDF, Word, PowerPoint, Excel, OpenDocument, RTF, EPUB, and CSV. Chooses direct reading or conversion, selects a converter from document structure, and decides whether the Markdown is tracked or temporary. Use when a document must be read, quoted, summarized, searched, extracted, or added to a source library. Scanned documents go to vlm-ocr and bulk intake to research-repo.

- convert-word-to-mdgithub/awesome-copilotConverts Word (.docx) documents into Markdown so their contents can be accurately analyzed, summarized, searched, or extracted from. Use this skill whenever the user shares, references, or asks about a .docx file — even if they don't say "convert" or "markdown" explicitly. This includes requests to "read", "summarize", "review", "extract data from", "compare", or "analyze" a Word document, resume, report, contract, or proposal. Always run the bundled conversion script to produce Markdown first; do not attempt to parse .docx content directly or write ad-hoc conversion code. Also use this skill for batch requests involving a whole folder of Word documents. IMPORTANT: When the user references a folder or set of documents containing multiple file types (.pdf, .docx, .xlsx), invoke ALL three sibling skills — convert-pdf-to-md, convert-word-to-md, and convert-excel-to-md — so no file type is silently skipped.Documents★ 40.4K
