## File Format Note

All conformance checklist files are currently in **Microsoft Word (.docx)** binary format. These files **cannot be read directly** using standard text reading tools.

### Options for Phase 2 (Stage 11 Writing):

1. **Manual Conversion**: Convert Word files to markdown format manually before Phase 2
2. **Reference Only**: Reference the checklist files by name/purpose in the consolidated output
3. **Extract to Markdown**: Use Word-to-Markdown conversion tools to extract checklist content
4. **Tool Request**: Request Tom to provide markdown versions of checklists if available

### Recommended Approach for Stage 11B Writing Agent:

The writing agent should:
- Reference these checklist files by name and purpose
- Note that they exist as separate downloadable resources
- Include links to where users can access these checklists (if available via DocRef)
- Consider whether checklist content should be integrated or remain as separate downloads
