xlsx

A tool for extracting cell contents from Excel .xlsx spreadsheets as plain tab-separated text. Excel spreadsheets organize information into named sheets made of rows and columns.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect or summarize uploaded .xlsx files, sheet by sheet.
Why use it?
It makes spreadsheet data easier to read and summarize without opening Excel. Formula cells are reported using their saved results, not the formulas themselves.

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

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 2d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (extract.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.

What it actually says

xlsx — Excel spreadsheets

Use this skill to read or summarize .xlsx files.

Scripts

extract.py

Print sheet contents from an .xlsx as TSV. Each sheet is preceded by a --- sheet "<name>" --- header.

python org/public/core/xlsx/extract.py <path-to-file.xlsx>

Empty trailing rows and columns are trimmed. Cell values are stringified; formulas show their cached value, not the formula text.

Direct openpyxl usage

For richer operations (formulas, formatting, charts, writing workbooks), import openpyxl directly. The library is preinstalled.

from openpyxl import load_workbook
wb = load_workbook("/path/to/file.xlsx", data_only=True)
for sheet in wb.worksheets:
    for row in sheet.iter_rows(values_only=True):
        ...
Files

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.

xlsx is a skill published in the GitHub repository decocms/studio (402 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 30 tokens to every session and 222 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
