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

openpyxl-formula-editing 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 4d 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

Editing Excel Files with openpyxl (Preserve Formatting)

Load and Edit

from openpyxl import load_workbook

wb = load_workbook('file.xlsx')
ws = wb['SheetName']

# Write formula to a cell (preserves existing formatting)
ws['H12'] = '=SOME_FORMULA()'

# Iterate over a range
for row in range(12, 18):
    for col_letter in ['H', 'I', 'J', 'K', 'L']:
        ws[f'{col_letter}{row}'] = f'=FORMULA({col_letter}...)'

wb.save('file.xlsx')

Important Notes

  • Assigning a value to a cell preserves its existing formatting (fill, font, borders)
  • Formulas are stored as strings starting with '='
  • Use recalc.py after saving to compute formula values
  • Never open with data_only=True if you plan to save (destroys formulas)

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.
