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

excel-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 4d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/create_xlsx.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

Excel XLSX

Use this skill when the user asks for an Excel spreadsheet or editable table.

Output

  • Create a real .xlsx file, not plain text renamed as .xlsx.
  • Save it under the current workspace, preferably workspace/, vault/, or the current conversation folder.
  • Use a clear filename ending in .xlsx.
  • Reply with the file path and a short note about what was created.

Tool

python3 scripts/create_xlsx.py \
  --title "Sheet title" \
  --input data.csv \
  --output output.xlsx

You can also pass data directly:

python3 scripts/create_xlsx.py \
  --title "Cotizacion" \
  --data "Item,Cantidad,Precio\nSilla,4,120000\nMesa,1,450000" \
  --output cotizacion.xlsx

Input Formats

  • CSV or TSV files.
  • Markdown tables.
  • JSON array of objects or array of arrays.
  • Plain text tables separated by commas, tabs, semicolons, or pipes.

Guidance

  • Put headers in the first row when the user gives categories or columns.
  • For budgets, quotes, inventories, grades, schedules, or reports, include totals and clear column names when useful.
  • Use formulas only when the user needs calculations and the formula is straightforward.
  • If the user gives messy text, normalize it into a clean table instead of blocking.
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.
