A set of tools for creating, inspecting, and editing Excel .xlsx workbooks and CSV files. It supports workbook structure, formulas, charts, formatting, and conversion between the two file types.

Building reports, reading sheets and formulas, changing rows, columns, tables, notes, and protection settings, recalculating formulas, and importing or exporting CSV data.

It makes spreadsheet changes repeatable and lets you inspect or update workbook data without editing cells by hand.

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	$0.02581
Opus 5	$0.00008	$0.01290
Sonnet 5	$0.00003	$0.00516
Haiku 4.5	$0.00002	$0.00258

Security

Grade A, and why

xlsx 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 9d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 8 executable files (scripts/csv_to_xlsx.py, scripts/xlsx_create.py, scripts/xlsx_edit.py, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 197 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Xlsx Skill

Work with Excel .xlsx workbooks using Python and openpyxl: build styled multi-sheet workbooks with formulas and charts, inspect or dump existing files, edit cells and structure, and convert to/from CSV. All helper scripts are argparse CLIs that print JSON and use explicit UTF-8 I/O.

When to Use

Creating .xlsx reports: multiple sheets, number formats, styling, merged cells, freeze panes, autofilter, conditional formatting, charts, data-validation dropdowns, native Excel tables, defined names, hyperlinks, cell notes, sheet protection.
Reading a workbook: sheet inventory, dumping data as JSON or CSV, listing formulas vs cached values, notes, defined names, tables.
Editing existing files: set cells, append rows, insert/delete rows/columns (reference-aware via xlsx_restructure.py), copy/rename sheets, tables, names, notes, protection.
Recalculating formulas headlessly via LibreOffice (xlsx_recalc.py).
CSV interop with type inference and non-UTF-8 encodings.
Not for the legacy .xls binary format (use LibreOffice to convert first: soffice --headless --convert-to xlsx old.xls).

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ with openpyxl (pip install openpyxl). No other third-party packages are needed; everything else is stdlib.
Optional: LibreOffice (soffice) for headless recalculation or format conversion.

How to Run

Run the helper scripts with the terminal tool from this skill's scripts/ directory (every script supports --help):

python scripts/xlsx_create.py spec.json report.xlsx   # build from JSON spec
python scripts/xlsx_read.py report.xlsx --sheets      # inventory
python scripts/xlsx_read.py report.xlsx --json --sheet Data
python scripts/xlsx_read.py report.xlsx --formulas
python scripts/xlsx_edit.py report.xlsx --sheet Data --set B2=42 --recalc
python scripts/xlsx_restructure.py report.xlsx --sheet Data --insert-rows 3:2
python scripts/xlsx_recalc.py report.xlsx
python scripts/csv_to_xlsx.py data.csv out.xlsx --encoding utf-8
python scripts/xlsx_to_csv.py report.xlsx out.csv --sheet Data

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.
