Convert documents to Markdown

The anydoc CLI is pre-installed in the sandbox. It converts one document per invocation and writes GitHub-Flavored Markdown to stdout. It never prompts; diagnostics go to stderr.

Usage

anydoc report.docx                  # Markdown to stdout
anydoc slides.pptx -o slides.md     # write to a file
anydoc - --format csv < data.csv    # read stdin (stdin needs --format for CSV)

Supported inputs: Word (.doc, .docx, .docm), PowerPoint (.ppt, .pptx, .ppsx), Excel (.xls, .xlsx, .xlsb), OpenDocument (.odt, .ods, .odp), RTF, EPUB, CSV, and PDF. The format is detected from file content; pass --format <name> when detection fails (stdin CSV, missing extensions).

Exit codes: 0 success, 1 the document could not be read or converted, 2 usage error.

Guidelines

• For a large document, write to a file with -o and read the parts you need instead of streaming the whole conversion into context.
• Scanned or image-only PDFs need OCR, which anydoc does not do — they exit 1. Use the OCR path in skills/pdf/SKILL.md (pytesseract + pdf2image).
• anydoc is read-only extraction. To create or edit files, use the format's own skill: skills/docx, skills/xlsx, skills/presentations, skills/pdf.
• For layout-aware PDF extraction (tables with coordinates, per-page bounding boxes), use pdfplumber from skills/pdf/SKILL.md.
