AI summary

Docx-CLI enables AI agents to read and edit Word documents efficiently, reducing time and token usage by half. It allows agents to leave comments, suggest redlines, and edit without breaking formatting, with humans accepting or rejecting changes in Word. Benchmarks show Docx-CLI significantly outperforms default methods in task completion, correctness, and cost-effectiveness, especially for weaker AI models, and consistently produces documents Word can open.
