spreadsheet

A set of tools for creating, editing, analyzing, and formatting spreadsheets such as Excel workbooks, CSV files, and TSV files. It is designed to preserve formulas, references, and formatting when possible.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to build workbooks, clean or analyze CSV data, modify existing Excel files, preserve formulas and formatting, and create spreadsheet visualizations.
Why use it?
It helps automate spreadsheet work while checking that calculations, links between cells, and presentation remain intact. It can also summarize tabular data and create charts.

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 B, and why

spreadsheet scanned grade B with 1 finding 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 4 executable files (references/examples/openpyxl/create_basic_spreadsheet.py, references/examples/openpyxl/create_spreadsheet_with_styling.py, references/examples/openpyxl/read_existing_spreadsheet.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.

Asks for rootmediumPrivilege escalation

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

Spreadsheet Skill (Create, Edit, Analyze, Visualize)

When to use

  • Build new workbooks with formulas, formatting, and structured layouts.
  • Read or analyze tabular data (filter, aggregate, pivot, compute metrics).
  • Modify existing workbooks without breaking formulas or references.
  • Visualize data with charts/tables and sensible formatting.

IMPORTANT: System and user instructions always take precedence.

Workflow

  1. Confirm the file type and goals (create, edit, analyze, visualize).
  2. Use openpyxl for .xlsx edits and pandas for analysis and CSV/TSV workflows.
  3. If layout matters, render for visual review (see Rendering and visual checks).
  4. Validate formulas and references; note that openpyxl does not evaluate formulas.
  5. Save outputs and clean up intermediate files.

Temp and output conventions

  • Use tmp/spreadsheets/ for intermediate files; delete when done.
  • Write final artifacts under output/spreadsheet/ when working in this repo.
  • Keep filenames stable and descriptive.

Primary tooling

  • Use openpyxl for creating/editing .xlsx files and preserving formatting.
  • Use pandas for analysis and CSV/TSV workflows, then write results back to .xlsx or .csv.
  • If you need charts, prefer openpyxl.chart for native Excel charts.

Rendering and visual checks

  • If LibreOffice (soffice) and Poppler (pdftoppm) are available, render sheets for visual review:
    • soffice --headless --convert-to pdf --outdir $OUTDIR $INPUT_XLSX
    • pdftoppm -png $OUTDIR/$BASENAME.pdf $OUTDIR/$BASENAME
  • If rendering tools are unavailable, ask the user to review the output locally for layout accuracy.

Dependencies (install if missing)

Prefer uv for dependency management.

Python packages:

uv pip install openpyxl pandas

If uv is unavailable:

python3 -m pip install openpyxl pandas

Optional (chart-heavy or PDF review workflows):

uv pip install matplotlib

If uv is unavailable:

python3 -m pip install matplotlib

System tools (for rendering):

# macOS (Homebrew)
brew install libreoffice poppler

# Ubuntu/Debian
sudo apt-get install -y libreoffice poppler-utils

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.
