File Generator Skill
Use this skill when the user wants an answer delivered as a downloadable file artifact. This skill creates new workflow files; it does not edit an existing uploaded file.
Workflow
- Decide the target file format from the user's request.
- If the user did not specify a format, choose the most appropriate supported format:
- Use
mdfor reports, notes, plans, structured prose, and documentation drafts. - Use
docxwhen the user explicitly asks for Word, an editable document, or a formal document file. - Use
xlsxwhen the user explicitly asks for Excel or a spreadsheet workbook. Provide valid CSV content. - Use
pdfwhen the user explicitly asks for PDF or a simple read-only distribution file. - Use
pptxwhen the user explicitly asks for PowerPoint, slides, a deck, or an editable presentation. - Use
txtfor plain text without formatting. - Use
htmlfor runnable HTML pages or previewable web documents. - Use
jsonfor machine-readable structured data. - Use
csvfor table-like data.
- Use
- Read the reference document for the selected format before calling a tool.
- Use
generate_filefor simple exports. - Use
generate_docxwhen a Word document needs headings, fonts, font sizes, alignment, spacing, page margins, page breaks, colored/bold/underlined text, or simple tables. - Use
generate_pdfwhen a PDF needs richer layout, print CSS, tables, colors, page margins, page breaks, or business-report formatting. - Use
generate_pptxwhen the user needs an editable static PowerPoint deck. - For PPTX, plan the slide layout before writing JSON. Use non-overlapping boxes for titles, text, and tables. Split dense content into more slides instead of shrinking text or stacking elements.
- For PPTX with Chinese or other dense text, treat "more text" as more slides, not denser text boxes. Keep body paragraphs short; use bullets, columns, or additional slides before exceeding the readable capacity of a box.
- Before calling
generate_pptx, self-check that each slide's readable content fits within the slide bounds, does not overlap, uses explicitx,y,w, andhwhen the layout matters, and avoids long unbroken lines. - Use
persistentlifecycle by default unless the user asks for a temporary file. - In the final answer, briefly mention the generated filename and format.
- Do not invent, rewrite, shorten, or manually format download links. The system UI displays generated file download controls from structured artifact events.
References
Read exactly one reference after choosing the target format:
| Requested format | Read reference |
|---|---|
txt, text |
format-txt.md |
md, markdown |
format-md.md |
html, htm |
format-html.md |
json |
format-json.md |
csv |
format-csv.md |
simple docx, word |
format-docx.md |
styled docx, word |
format-docx-rich.md |
xlsx, excel |
format-xlsx.md |
simple pdf |
format-pdf.md |
HTML-rendered pdf |
format-pdf-html.md |
pptx, powerpoint, presentation, slides |
format-pptx.md |
Constraints
- The skill creates new files only. It does not edit existing uploaded files or preserve an existing template.
- Do not call
generate_file,generate_docx,generate_pdf, orgenerate_pptxuntil the selected format reference has been read. generate_fileaccepts only its documented simple parameters. Do not invent format-specific parameters such assheets,styles,pages,columns,headers, ormetadata.generate_docxaccepts a JSON string document specification. Do not pass raw Markdown or HTML asdocument.generate_pdfaccepts self-contained HTML and optional inline CSS. Do not pass JSON document specs.generate_pptxaccepts a JSON string presentation specification. Do not pass HTML or Markdown aspresentation.- PPTX readable content should not use negative coordinates. Negative
xoryis only appropriate for decorative shapes that intentionally bleed off an edge. - Generated file content must fit within the backend file size limit.
- Do not include filesystem paths in filenames.
- Do not claim a file was generated unless the tool call succeeded.
- If the user asks for advanced document features that the selected reference says are unsupported, generate the closest supported file only when that still satisfies the request.
