libreoffice-mcp-tools: Instructions file for Codex

AGENTS.md

libreoffice-mcp-tools AGENTS.md is an instructions file for Codex, OpenCode from passerbyflutter/libreoffice-mcp-tools. It costs 396 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Project instructions for developing a TypeScript MCP server that uses LibreOffice to work with office documents. TypeScript is a programming language that adds types to JavaScript, and MCP lets agents call tools.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when adding or changing document tools, managing document sessions, handling DOCX/XLS/PPT files, or working with the LibreOffice adapter and its locking rules.
Why use it?
It gives contributors the project's structure, supported formats, tool conventions, and rules for safely managing LibreOffice processes.

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

libreoffice-mcp-tools AGENTS.md 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.

What it actually says

AGENTS.md — LibreOffice MCP Tools

What This Is

TypeScript MCP server for AI agents to read/write/edit Office documents via LibreOffice. Mirrors chrome-devtools-mcp architecture. Token-efficient by design.

Quick Context

  • Entry: src/index.ts → createMcpServer()
  • Tools defined in src/tools/*.ts using defineTool() from src/tools/ToolDefinition.ts
  • All tools take docId (from document_open) + optional pagination params
  • LibreOffice subprocess managed by src/LibreOfficeAdapter.ts behind src/Mutex.ts
  • DOC/XLS/PPT legacy formats auto-converted on document_open via LibreOffice CLI

Key Files to Read First

  1. src/tools/ToolDefinition.ts — how to define a tool
  2. src/DocumentContext.ts — session/document management
  3. src/tools/tools.ts — all tool registration
  4. .github/copilot-instructions.md — full context

Coding Rules

  • TypeScript ESM, .js imports even for .ts files
  • Zod schemas for all tool params
  • Never spawn soffice directly — use LibreOfficeAdapter
  • Always acquire Mutex before LibreOffice calls
  • Response: appendText() for summaries, attachJson() for data, attachMarkdown() for doc content

Supported Formats

DOCX, DOC (via LO bridge), XLSX, XLS (via LO bridge), PPTX, PPT (via LO bridge), ODT, ODS, ODP, RTF (all via LO bridge), CSV, TXT (native), PDF (read-only via LO)

Build & Run

npm run build

Changes

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.
