## What it does

Use this skill to build Word reports from papers, theses, and other source material, or to prepare academic presentations. It also covers editing existing DOCX and PPTX files, adapting slides to a supplied template, adding speaker notes, and checking layouts for overflow and overlap.

Its instructions separate report and presentation workflows, with guidance on source evidence and final-file checks. OOXML resources support DOCX and PPTX work; thesis-defense resources include scripts for extracting context, cloning slides, and inspecting overflow. Work on a copy of the original presentation, not the original file itself.

Chinese is the default for report prose and slide text, while English titles, formulas, and references are retained. This skill is not for drafting manuscript prose without a Word or PowerPoint deliverable, or for standalone data analysis.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add zLanqing/codex-claude-academic-skills --skill office-academic-skill -a claude-code
```

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

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add zLanqing/codex-claude-academic-skills --skill office-academic-skill -a codex
```

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

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add zLanqing/codex-claude-academic-skills --skill office-academic-skill -a cursor
```

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

```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/zLanqing/codex-claude-academic-skills --path office-academic-skill
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/office-academic-skill/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add zLanqing/codex-claude-academic-skills --skill office-academic-skill -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/zLanqing/codex-claude-academic-skills/tree/HEAD/office-academic-skill/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- create a Word report from a research paper
- turn thesis material into a PowerPoint deck
- adapt slides to an existing presentation template
- check a PPTX for overflow and overlapping elements
- edit a DOCX while preserving its style

## Example prompts
- Create a Word report from this paper, keeping its English title, formulas, and references.
- Build a thesis-defense deck from these materials and check the slides for text overflow.
- Edit a copy of this PPTX to match the supplied template and add speaker notes.

name: office-academic-skill
description: Chinese-first academic Word and PowerPoint workflow for paper reading reports, thesis or group-meeting PPTs, editable DOCX/PPTX generation, Office file inspection, template matching, speaker notes, and layout quality checks. Use when the user asks to read papers into Word reports, create or polish PPT/PPTX, convert paper/thesis materials into slides, edit DOCX/PPTX, inspect Office files, or produce Chinese academic presentation/report deliverables. Preserve English paper titles, formulas, variable names, software commands, and references.

# Office Academic Skill

## Scope

Use this skill for:

- Word reports from PDFs, DOCX files, arXiv papers, journal articles, theses, and manuscripts.
- Chinese-first academic PPTs for literature reports, group meetings, courses, opening/midterm/defense presentations, and project presentations.
- Editable `.docx` and `.pptx` generation, inspection, repair, and style preservation.
- PPT template matching, native slide editing, speaker notes, and visual quality checks.

Do not use this skill for pure manuscript prose drafting without a Word/PPT deliverable; use `research-writing-skill` instead. Do not use it for MATLAB, Python analysis, statistics, or plotting unless those outputs are being inserted into Word/PPT.

## Language And Evidence

- Default to Chinese for explanations, Word report prose, slide text, outlines, and speaker notes.
- Preserve English titles, formulas, variables, model names, software commands, reference entries, and direct source labels.
- Distinguish `论文原文`, `图表/公式证据`, `代码或仿真结果`, `根据上下文推断`, and `建议`.
- Do not invent DOI, authors, journal details, experiment values, figure numbers, section names, page numbers, or conclusions.
- Attach source labels to claims, parameters, quantitative results, formula explanations, datasets, figures, limitations, and novelty statements.

## Paper Reading To Word

Default output, unless the user asks otherwise:

1. A bilingual English-Chinese report for fast browsing.
2. A Chinese-only report for submission, teaching, or presentation preparation.
3. Optional Markdown working notes if useful.

Before writing, build a source map:

- Title, authors, venue, year, DOI/arXiv if present.
- Section headings and page spans when available.
- Figures, tables, equations, datasets, hardware/software, and evaluation settings that support key claims.
- Uncertain or missing metadata marked as `未在原文中明确给出`.
```
