# Generate Document Agent

The Generate Document agent creates formatted `.docx` documents from markdown content. It supports style guides to control fonts, headings, spacing, and branding, producing professional documents suitable for external distribution.

## Use Cases

-   Your workflow needs to produce a downloadable, formatted document (reports, proposals, summaries).
-   You want to convert AI-generated markdown content into a branded Word document.
-   A business process requires document output rather than inline text (e.g., generating SOWs, contracts, or reports).
