DocFence adds a CI boundary for Word review artifacts

DocFence adds a CI boundary for Word review artifacts

EDITOR BRIEF

Word documents can be checked with review tools like blackline comparison and Document Inspector, but CI needs a different test: whether a package picked up unresolved revisions, comments, hidden text, macros, custom XML, or other opaque changes. DocFence 0.1.0 is a local-first CLI that compares .docx and .docm files without opening Word or uploading source material, and it reports fixed change categories instead of document content.

INSIGHTS

This matters because Word files are packages with many hidden parts, not just visible text. If you work with docs in a build pipeline, try using a CLI boundary check and a small YAML policy to catch risky changes before review.
