A troubleshooting guide for a Claude add-in deployment in Microsoft 365. It routes common problems such as old configuration, connection failures, missing add-ins, sign-in loops, and local manifest testing.

Use it to investigate why an add-in is not visible, cannot connect, shows stale settings, or fails during sign-in, including opening browser developer tools when needed.

It turns a vague deployment problem into a specific diagnostic path and uses copied error details when available.

About the project

Claude for Financial Services is a collection of agents, skills, commands, plugins, and data connectors for investment banking, equity research, private equity, and wealth-management workflows. Financial professionals use it to draft models, memos, research notes, and reconciliations for review by qualified people. The catalogue contains components from these workflows, including agents, skills, plugins, commands, and instructions.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00016	$0.03921
Opus 5.5	$0.00006	$0.01568
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00003	$0.00784
Haiku 4.5	$0.00002	$0.00392

Security

Grade A, and why

debug scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Debug a Claude Office deployment

You are helping an enterprise admin diagnose why the deployed add-in isn't working right. Start by asking what's wrong, then route.

Triage

Ask the admin to describe the symptom. Route by answer:

Symptom	Section
Updated the manifest but users still see old config	Stale config after update
Add-in shows "Connection failed"	Read the error paste
Add-in doesn't appear in Excel/PowerPoint at all	Add-in not visible
Want to test/iterate a manifest locally before deploying	Sideload a manifest for local debugging
Sign-in popup fails or loops	Admin consent
Need to see the browser console	Opening browser devtools

If they have an error paste from the add-in (the Copy error details button on the connect-failed screen), always start there. It carries everything.

Read the error paste

Paste structure:

Claude for Office connection failed (<Provider>)
Build: <sha>

<friendly message>

Request:
  <key>: <value actually sent>
  ...

Manifest params:
  <key>: <value the deployed manifest carries>
  ...

Raw error:
<SDK/HTTP error>

What to check:

Request: vs Manifest params: delta. Keys are the same snake_case names in both blocks, so diff directly. If they differ, the user typed override values into the form. If they match, the manifest values went through unchanged.
Manifest params: m key is the version tag (e.g. unified-1.0.0.11). If it's below what you last uploaded, the user is on a stale manifest. Go to Stale config.
Raw error: is the ground truth. Common patterns:
- invalid_client (401, Google) → wrong google_client_secret for that google_client_id. Verify in GCP Console → Credentials.
- Load failed (<host>) → network blocked at the WebView layer. Firewall needs to allow that host.
- STS AssumeRoleWithWebIdentity failed → AWS IAM OIDC provider misconfigured or role trust policy wrong.
- HTTP 401/403 (gateway) → bad token or gateway rejected the key.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
