## What it does

The skill turns a document brief into a structured plan with section roles, typed content blocks, and visual direction. It can map cover content, a table of contents, body sections, tables, lists, figure captions, and closing blocks such as sign-off or contact details.

The workflow starts with `content_and_design.md`, then moves into the K2F semantic tree. The agent packs and verifies the document before exporting a `.K2F` package as an editable DOCX. Layout is described through roles and section boundaries rather than page coordinates or tab-built tables.

The core skill must be installed first with `npx skills add suzheng/k2f --skill k2f`. Without it, this skill cannot follow the documented build and export workflow.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add suzheng/k2f --skill k2f-aesthetic-ms-word -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/k2f-aesthetic-ms-word/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/k2f-aesthetic-ms-word/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add suzheng/k2f --skill k2f-aesthetic-ms-word -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**

## When to use it
- turn a brief into an editable DOCX
- organize a rough draft into document sections
- define roles for tables, lists, and figures
- prepare a K2F package for Word export

## Example prompts
- Create a polished DOCX from this brief, starting with `content_and_design.md`.
- Turn this draft into a Word document with a table of contents, real tables, and ranked headings.
- Build and verify a `.K2F` package, then export the editable DOCX.

description: Create polished, general-purpose Microsoft Word documents with clear structure, typed content blocks, and strong visual hierarchy for any brief. Use when the user asks for Microsoft Word, MS Word, a Word document, DOCX, .docx, a beautiful or professional Word doc, an editable Word handoff, or to beautify Word formatting. Create Microsoft Word documents with AI-native design and the highest aesthetic standards, powered by the K2F format and engine. Purpose-built for AI agents, K2F lets them focus on semantic content and design intent while automatically handling layout, typography, and formatting complexity.

# K2F Aesthetic MS Word — AI-Native Aesthetic Design

## Purpose

Teach agents to create highly aesthetic, general-purpose Word documents—any topic, any audience—that open and stay editable in Microsoft Word. Work through explicit copy, section-level reading beats, typographic roles, and art direction in `content_and_design.md`, then build with **k2f**—not slide-deck bullets, manual bold-and-spacing hacks, tab-aligned pseudo tables, or “design as one screenshot.”

## Built on K2F

This skill produces Word-ready packages as `.K2F` documents exportable to DOCX. Follow the **k2f** skill for authoring: unpack or init a workspace, edit the semantic tree, run pack/verify, then export. K2F keeps agents on *meaning* (sections, figures, hierarchy roles)—not frame coordinates—while the engine compiles layout and typography into an editable Word handoff.

Before you build, install the core skill: `npx skills add suzheng/k2f --skill k2f`.

## When to Use

- The user wants a beautiful, professional Word document and did not name a narrower K2F task skill—or the brief is general.
- Primary deliverable is polished, editable DOCX for Microsoft Word or SharePoint, regardless of domain.
- Restructuring messy drafts or Markdown into a scannable Word hierarchy, then exporting through **k2f**.
- Optional: combine with another K2F task skill—that skill owns domain facts and compliance; this skill owns Word reading mode, block roles, and aesthetic design.

## Workflow

### Step 1. Generate the content_and_design.md

One `content_and_design.md` merging **reader path**, **section roles**, **typed content blocks**, and **design intent** the engine can interpret. Use labeled sections; map pages later in k2f.

**Sub-steps**

1. **Document scenario** — Audience, purpose (inform, decide, approve, archive), reading mode (skim vs study), approximate length, need for cover, TOC, signature block, and what must stay verbatim (policy, legal, pricing, quotes). Drop sections that do not serve the scenario.

2. **Document skeleton** — Ordered parts: cover or title block, front matter (TOC, distribution, summary), body chapters or sections, appendix or references, closing (sign-off, contact). Tag sections as **opening**, **narrative**, **reference**, or **closing** so density is not uniform start to finish.
```
