- description: "Usage `rdc:convert <input> [--out <dir>] [--to markdown|word] [--images assets|base64|s3]` — Convert .docx/.pptx/.ppt → Markdown (Word OMML equations as KaTeX TeX, tables, images) or Markdown → Word via the build-corpus CLI (npm `regen.mde`, or pip from GitHub). Portable: runs in any session that can reach npm or PyPI — Claude Code CLI and claude.ai both fetch + run it. Use whenever the user asks to convert an Office document, build a Markdown corpus from .docx/.pptx, turn Markdown into a .docx, or 'open the report' in the regen-mde editor (Windows)."

- # rdc:convert — Office ↔ Markdown conversion (build-corpus) + regen-mde editor
7
-
8
- > **⚠️ OUTPUT CONTRACT (READ FIRST):** `guides/output-contract.md`
9
- > Checklist-only output. No tool-call narration. No raw MCP/JSON/log dumps.
10
- > One checklist upfront, updated in place, shown again at end with a 1-line verdict.
11
-
12
- `build-corpus` is the conversion CLI; `regen-mde` is the Windows GUI editor. Same
13
- package, two surfaces. This skill is a **when-to-use + full call/switch reference** —
14
- it does NOT require a local checkout. Any runtime that can reach npm or PyPI can
15
- fetch and run the tool in its own session (this is how claude.ai uses it).
16
-
17
- ## When to Use
18
- - Convert `.docx`, `.pptx`, or `.ppt` → Markdown, preserving Word OMML equations
19
- (as KaTeX-readable TeX), tables, images, headings, and lists.
20
- - Convert Markdown → Word (`.docx`), optionally with a `.dotx` template.
21
- - Build a Markdown corpus from a folder of Office files (one pass, recursive).
22
- - Inline a Markdown file's images as data URIs, or rehost them to R2/S3.
23
- - "Open the report / open this doc to edit" → `regen-mde <file>` (Windows GUI only).
24
-
25
- ## When NOT to Use
26
- - Rendering a folder/HTML/zip into a print-ready **PDF** brochure → use `rdc:brochure`.
27
- - Authoring brochure JSX for the Brochurify pipeline → use `lifeai-brochure-author`.
28
-
29
- ## Obtain & Run (portable — pick whatever the current runtime supports)
30
-
31
- The command is always `build-corpus <input> [flags]`. Resolve the binary like this:
32
-
33
- 1. **Already on PATH?** Use it directly: `build-corpus --help`.
34
- 2. **Install straight from GitHub — REQUIRED for current behavior** (native LaTeX→OMML
35
- equations, the fidelity report, and the escaped-currency fix; the PyPI/npm packages
36
- below currently LAG GitHub):
37
- ```bash
38
- pip install "git+https://github.com/LIFEAI/build-corpus.git"
39
- # (the feat/dual-package-ubuntu branch is kept in sync with main as an alias)
40
- ```
41
- This installs the `build-corpus` CLI and its deps (latex2mathml, python-docx,
42
- Pillow, omml2latex). The MathML→OMML step is an OWNED converter — there is NO
43
- `mathml2omml` dependency. On Debian/Ubuntu externally-managed Python, add
44
- `--break-system-packages`, use a venv, or `pipx install "git+https://github.com/LIFEAI/build-corpus.git"`.
45
- 3. **npm (only if you do NOT need the latest fixes — lags GitHub; `build-corpus` is
46
- NOT on PyPI):** `npx -y -p regen.mde build-corpus <input> [flags]`
47
- 4. **Legacy `.ppt` input** additionally needs LibreOffice (`soffice`) on PATH
48
- (`sudo apt install libreoffice`). `.docx`/`.pptx` need nothing extra.
49
- 5. **S3/R2 image upload** needs the extra: append `[s3]` to the package spec.
50
-
51
- claude.ai note: install from GitHub (step 2) into the analysis/session sandbox and run
52
- `build-corpus` there. GitHub is the source of truth until PyPI/npm are republished.
53
-
54
- ## Command Reference
55
-
56
- ```
57
- build-corpus <input> [input ...] [options]
58
- ```
59
-
60
- `<input>` — one or more `.md`, `.docx`, `.pptx`, or `.ppt` files or directories.
61
-
62
- | Flag | Values / default | Effect |
63
- |------|------------------|--------|
64
- | `--out <dir>` | path | Output directory for the converted tree. |
65
- | `--out-same-dir` | — | Write `.md`, `.assets`, and reports **beside** each source file. |
66
- | `--to` | `auto` \| `markdown` \| `word` (default `auto`) | Output target. `auto` infers from a single-file input. |
67
- | `--images` | `assets` \| `base64` \| `s3` (default `assets`) | Image handling (see below). |
68
- | `--equations` | `tex` \| `image` (default `tex`) | OMML equations → KaTeX TeX, or rendered images (debug only). |
69
- | `--inline-images` | — | Emit `<name>.inline.md` with local/HTTP images embedded as data URIs. |
70
- | `--word-template <file>` | `.docx`/`.dotx` | Template for Markdown → Word exports. |
71
- | `--move-sources` | — | After a successful convert, move sources into a `sources/` folder. |
72
- | `--config <file>` | JSON | Conversion/output/S3 defaults (CLI flags override). |
73
-
74
- S3/R2 (only with `--images s3`): `--s3-bucket`, `--s3-public-base-url`,
75
- `--s3-prefix`, `--s3-endpoint-url` (required for R2), `--s3-region` (`auto` for R2),
76
- `--s3-access-key-id`, `--s3-secret-access-key`, `--s3-cache-control`, `--s3-acl`.
77
- Prefer keeping S3 secrets in `--config`, not on the command line.
78
-
79
- ### Image modes (`--images`)
80
- - `assets` — copy images into an `.assets` folder and reference them (default).
81
- - `base64` — embed images directly as Markdown data URIs.
82
- - `s3` — upload to S3-compatible storage (Cloudflare R2 / AWS S3); needs the S3 flags or `--config`.
83
-
84
- ### Equations (both directions are real)
85
- - **docx → markdown** (`--equations`): `tex` converts Word OMML equations to
86
- KaTeX-readable TeX (default); `image` renders them as images (debug only).
87
- - **markdown → word** (`--to word`): inline `$...$` and display `$$...$$` LaTeX
88
- are converted to **native Office Math (OMML)** that Word renders as real
89
- equations (`\sum`, `\int`, `\frac`, `\Delta`, `\rightarrow`, `\leq`, …) — not
90
- raw text in a math font. Unparseable fragments fall back to Cambria Math text
91
- and are flagged in the export report. Requires build-corpus ≥ 0.4.0. Fence
92
- display math with `$$` on their own lines, no blank lines inside the fence.
93
-
94
- ## Editor — `regen-mde` (Windows only)
95
-
96
- ```
97
- regen-mde <document.md|document.docx> [options]
98
- ```
99
- Aliases: `mdeditor`, `regen-mdeditor`, `build-corpus-editor`.
100
-
101
- | Flag | Effect |
102
- |------|--------|
103
- | `--foreground`, `--visible` | Show the editor as an attached foreground process. |
104
- | `--background` | Launch hidden/offscreen (smoke checks). |
105
- | `--self-test` | Verify the editor bridge can open the document. |
106
- | `--document-self-test` | Open, edit, save Markdown, export Word, reconvert. |
107
- | `--out <dir>` | Output directory for the document self-test. |
108
-
109
- The GUI is a .NET 8 + WebView2 app and is **Windows-only by design**. On Linux/macOS
110
- use the `build-corpus` CLI; there is no Linux editor build.
111
-
112
- ## Examples
113
-
114
- ```bash
115
- build-corpus input.docx --out out # docx → markdown
116
- build-corpus deck.pptx --out out # pptx → markdown
117
- build-corpus ./word-files --out ./markdown # whole folder, recursive
118
- build-corpus ./word-files --out-same-dir # write beside each source
119
- build-corpus input.docx --images base64 # embed images inline
120
- build-corpus input.md --to word --out out # markdown → Word
121
- build-corpus input.md --to word --word-template custom.dotx --out out
122
- build-corpus report.md --inline-images # → report.inline.md
123
- build-corpus input.docx --images s3 --config build-corpus.config.json
124
-
125
- # portable one-offs when build-corpus is not yet installed:
126
- pipx run --spec "git+https://github.com/LIFEAI/build-corpus.git" build-corpus input.docx --out out
127
- npx -y -p regen.mde build-corpus input.docx --out out
128
- ```
129
-
130
- ## Boundaries
131
- - Does not commit, deploy, or upload outputs (except images when `--images s3` is set).
132
- - Does not modify source documents unless `--move-sources` is passed.
133
- - Does not install global dependencies implicitly — fetch via `pipx`/`npx` as shown.
134
- - The `regen-mde` GUI is Windows-only; do not attempt to launch it on Linux/macOS.
135

+ description: "Usage `rdc:convert <input> [--out <dir>] [--to markdown|word] [--images assets|base64|s3]` — Convert .docx/.pptx/.ppt → Markdown (Word OMML equations as KaTeX TeX, tables, images) or Markdown → Word via the build-corpus CLI (npm `regen.mde`, or pip from GitHub). Portable: runs in any session that can reach npm or PyPI — Claude Code CLI and claude.ai both fetch + run it. Use whenever the user asks to convert an Office document, build a Markdown corpus from .docx/.pptx, turn Markdown into a .docx, or 'open the report' in the regen-mde editor (Windows)."

11

12
+ `build-corpus` is the conversion CLI; `regen-mde` is the Windows GUI editor. Same
13
+ package, two surfaces. This skill is a **when-to-use + full call/switch reference** —
14
+ it does NOT require a local checkout. Any runtime that can reach npm or PyPI can
15
+ fetch and run the tool in its own session (this is how claude.ai uses it).
16
+
17
+ ## When to Use
18
+ - Convert `.docx`, `.pptx`, or `.ppt` → Markdown, preserving Word OMML equations
19
+ (as KaTeX-readable TeX), tables, images, headings, and lists.
20
+ - Convert Markdown → Word (`.docx`), optionally with a `.dotx` template.
21
+ - Build a Markdown corpus from a folder of Office files (one pass, recursive).
22
+ - Inline a Markdown file's images as data URIs, or rehost them to R2/S3.
23
+ - "Open the report / open this doc to edit" → `regen-mde <file>` (Windows GUI only).
24
+
25
+ ## When NOT to Use
26
+ - Rendering a folder/HTML/zip into a print-ready **PDF** brochure → use `rdc:brochure`.
27
+ - Authoring brochure JSX for the Brochurify pipeline → use `lifeai-brochure-author`.
28
+
29
+ ## Obtain & Run (portable — pick whatever the current runtime supports)
30
+
31
+ The command is always `build-corpus <input> [flags]`. Resolve the binary like this:
32
+
33
+ 1. **Already on PATH?** Use it directly: `build-corpus --help`.
34
+ 2. **Install straight from GitHub — REQUIRED for current behavior** (native LaTeX→OMML
35
+ equations, the fidelity report, and the escaped-currency fix; the PyPI/npm packages
36
+ below currently LAG GitHub):
37
+ ```bash
38
+ pip install "git+https://github.com/LIFEAI/build-corpus.git"
39
+ # (the feat/dual-package-ubuntu branch is kept in sync with main as an alias)
40
+ ```
41
+ This installs the `build-corpus` CLI and its deps (latex2mathml, python-docx,
42
+ Pillow, omml2latex). The MathML→OMML step is an OWNED converter — there is NO
43
+ `mathml2omml` dependency. On Debian/Ubuntu externally-managed Python, add
44
+ `--break-system-packages`, use a venv, or `pipx install "git+https://github.com/LIFEAI/build-corpus.git"`.
45
+ 3. **npm (only if you do NOT need the latest fixes — lags GitHub; `build-corpus` is
46
+ NOT on PyPI):** `npx -y -p regen.mde build-corpus <input> [flags]`
47
+ 4. **Legacy `.ppt` input** additionally needs LibreOffice (`soffice`) on PATH
48
+ (`sudo apt install libreoffice`). `.docx`/`.pptx` need nothing extra.
49
+ 5. **S3/R2 image upload** needs the extra: append `[s3]` to the package spec.
50
+
51
+ claude.ai note: install from GitHub (step 2) into the analysis/session sandbox and run
52
+ `build-corpus` there. GitHub is the source of truth until PyPI/npm are republished.
53
+
54
+ ## Command Reference
55
+
56
+ ```
57
+ build-corpus <input> [input ...] [options]
58
+ ```
59
+
60
+ `<input>` — one or more `.md`, `.docx`, `.pptx`, or `.ppt` files or directories.
61
+
62
+ | Flag | Values / default | Effect |
63
+ |------|------------------|--------|
64
+ | `--out <dir>` | path | Output directory for the converted tree. |
65
+ | `--out-same-dir` | — | Write `.md`, `.assets`, and reports **beside** each source file. |
66
+ | `--to` | `auto` \| `markdown` \| `word` (default `auto`) | Output target. `auto` infers from a single-file input. |
67
+ | `--images` | `assets` \| `base64` \| `s3` (default `assets`) | Image handling (see below). |
68
+ | `--equations` | `tex` \| `image` (default `tex`) | OMML equations → KaTeX TeX, or rendered images (debug only). |
69
+ | `--inline-images` | — | Emit `<name>.inline.md` with local/HTTP images embedded as data URIs. |
70
+ | `--word-template <file>` | `.docx`/`.dotx` | Template for Markdown → Word exports. |
71
+ | `--move-sources` | — | After a successful convert, move sources into a `sources/` folder. |
72
+ | `--config <file>` | JSON | Conversion/output/S3 defaults (CLI flags override). |
73
+
74
+ S3/R2 (only with `--images s3`): `--s3-bucket`, `--s3-public-base-url`,
75
+ `--s3-prefix`, `--s3-endpoint-url` (required for R2), `--s3-region` (`auto` for R2),
76
+ `--s3-access-key-id`, `--s3-secret-access-key`, `--s3-cache-control`, `--s3-acl`.
77
+ Prefer keeping S3 secrets in `--config`, not on the command line.
78
+
79
+ ### Image modes (`--images`)
80
+ - `assets` — copy images into an `.assets` folder and reference them (default).
81
+ - `base64` — embed images directly as Markdown data URIs.
82
+ - `s3` — upload to S3-compatible storage (Cloudflare R2 / AWS S3); needs the S3 flags or `--config`.
83
+
84
+ ### Equations (both directions are real)
85
+ - **docx → markdown** (`--equations`): `tex` converts Word OMML equations to
86
+ KaTeX-readable TeX (default); `image` renders them as images (debug only).
87
+ - **markdown → word** (`--to word`): inline `$...$` and display `$$...$$` LaTeX
88
+ are converted to **native Office Math (OMML)** that Word renders as real
89
+ equations (`\sum`, `\int`, `\frac`, `\Delta`, `\rightarrow`, `\leq`, …) — not
90
+ raw text in a math font. Unparseable fragments fall back to Cambria Math text
91
+ and are flagged in the export report. Requires build-corpus ≥ 0.4.0. Fence
92
+ display math with `$$` on their own lines, no blank lines inside the fence.
93
+
94
+ ## Editor — `regen-mde` (Windows only)
95
+
96
+ ```
97
+ regen-mde <document.md|document.docx> [options]
98
+ ```
99
+ Aliases: `mdeditor`, `regen-mdeditor`, `build-corpus-editor`.
100
+
101
+ | Flag | Effect |
102
+ |------|--------|
103
+ | `--foreground`, `--visible` | Show the editor as an attached foreground process. |
104
+ | `--background` | Launch hidden/offscreen (smoke checks). |
105
+ | `--self-test` | Verify the editor bridge can open the document. |
106
+ | `--document-self-test` | Open, edit, save Markdown, export Word, reconvert. |
107
+ | `--out <dir>` | Output directory for the document self-test. |
108
+
109
+ The GUI is a .NET 8 + WebView2 app and is **Windows-only by design**. On Linux/macOS
110
+ use the `build-corpus` CLI; there is no Linux editor build.
111
+
112
+ ## Examples
113
+
114
+ ```bash
115
+ build-corpus input.docx --out out # docx → markdown
116
+ build-corpus deck.pptx --out out # pptx → markdown
117
+ build-corpus ./word-files --out ./markdown # whole folder, recursive
118
+ build-corpus ./word-files --out-same-dir # write beside each source
119
+ build-corpus input.docx --images base64 # embed images inline
120
+ build-corpus input.md --to word --out out # markdown → Word
121
+ build-corpus input.md --to word --word-template custom.dotx --out out
122
+ build-corpus report.md --inline-images # → report.inline.md
123
+ build-corpus input.docx --images s3 --config build-corpus.config.json
124
+
125
+ # portable one-offs when build-corpus is not yet installed:
126
+ pipx run --spec "git+https://github.com/LIFEAI/build-corpus.git" build-corpus input.docx --out out
127
+ npx -y -p regen.mde build-corpus input.docx --out out
128
+ ```
129
+
130
+ ## Boundaries
131
+ - Does not commit, deploy, or upload outputs (except images when `--images s3` is set).
132
+ - Does not modify source documents unless `--move-sources` is passed.
133
+ - Does not install global dependencies implicitly — fetch via `pipx`/`npx` as shown.
134
+ - The `regen-mde` GUI is Windows-only; do not attempt to launch it on Linux/macOS.
135
+
