Tip for AI tools

If you are using an AI coding assistant, point it to the SKILL.md file first.
This file acts as the entry point and helps the model discover the rest of the documentation structure.

Quick Start

Download the Aspose.Words for .NET Skill package:

⬇ Download | aspose-words-net-skill.zip
Extract the content of archive into skills folder (generally, it is .agents/skills/)
Place the extracted folder inside your coding agent knowledge directory.
Make sure the tool loads SKILL.md as the entry point. The agent will automatically discover additional documentation through the /references/ directory.
Try the Aspose.Words for .NET Skill – just write in your coding agent:

/Aspose.Words for .NET Convert mydocument.docx to pdf

or

Use Aspose.Words for .NET skill to convert mydocument.docx to pdf

The generated code should look similar to this:
```
using Aspose.Words.Loading;
using Aspose.Words.Saving;

Document doc = new Document(MyDir + "Document.docx");
doc.Save("DocToDocx.pdf");
```

Most tools only need the main SKILL.md file as the entry point, while the additional Markdown files provide detailed documentation sections.

Typical Skill Locations

Depending on the AI tool or coding agent you are using, the skill directory may be placed in locations such as:

a local /skills/ or /knowledge/ folder
a project-level AI configuration directory
an agent-specific extensions directory

Refer to the documentation of your AI tool for the exact location.

Verify Installation

After installation, the AI assistant should be able to answer questions about Aspose.Words for .NET features such as conversion, comparing, mail merge, and others. If the assistant provides detailed Aspose.Words-specific answers, the skill has been loaded successfully.

Versioning and Updates

The Aspose.Words for .NET Skill is generated from the official documentation and updated as the documentation evolves. It is recommended to periodically update it to ensure the AI tools have access to the latest information.

FAQ

Q: How is the Aspose.Words for .NET Skill different from the official documentation? A: The Aspose.Words for .NET Skill is generated from the official documentation but is organized specifically for AI coding assistants and large language models. It provides a structured entry point through SKILL.md and links to focused reference files, making it easier for AI tools to retrieve relevant information and generate more accurate code examples. Developers can still use the official documentation directly, while AI assistants benefit from the optimized structure of the skill package.
Q: Do I need all the Markdown files, or is SKILL.md enough? A: SKILL.md serves as the entry point for the skill and is typically the first file an AI coding assistant loads. From there, the assistant can discover the additional Markdown files in the references directory, which provide detailed guidance for specific topics such as document conversion, mail merge, digital signatures, and AI-powered features. For the best results, install the complete skill package rather than using only a single file.
Q: Which AI coding assistants support the Aspose.Words for .NET Skill? A: The Aspose.Words for .NET Skill is designed for AI tools that support Markdown-based skills or knowledge packages. Examples include Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Gemini CLI, Codex, Windsurf, OpenCode, and other compatible coding assistants. Because the skill consists of standard Markdown files, it can also be adapted for other AI tools that allow custom documentation or knowledge sources.
