Problem Statement
Summary
When working with Claude Code's task list, there is no built-in way to export
it into a format that pastes directly into Microsoft Outlook as a formatted table.
Users currently copy the markdown output and reformat it manually or use a
third-party tool (e.g., ChatGPT) to convert it to HTML — an extra step that
breaks the workflow.
Proposed Solution
A built-in /format-outlook skill (or /format email) that:
- Retrieves the current task list
- Outputs a clean HTML table with inline styles (Outlook strips CSS classes)
- Applies Outlook-friendly formatting: Calibri font, header row colour,
alternating row shading, status icons
- Outputs raw HTML only — no markdown, no code fences — paste directly into Outlook

Additional Context
## Why This Matters
- Outlook is the dominant email client in enterprise environments
- Teams using Claude Code for sprint planning need to share updates via email
- A .claude/commands/ workaround exists but requires per-user manual setup
- A built-in skill benefits all enterprise users out of the box
