In plain words
What is it for?
It is for finding missing cells, reading workbook values safely, writing replacement numbers, and saving the edited file.

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

evo-excel-io 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 yesterday.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/excel_io.py, scripts/utils.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

evo-excel-io

Utility functions for safe Excel I/O with openpyxl 3.1.5.

Key Features

  • Monkey-patches openpyxl 3.1.5 AppVersion bug to prevent chart corruption
  • Safe cell value reading that handles MergedCell objects
  • Scanning all sheets for "???" placeholder markers
  • Writing recovered numeric values with proper type casting
  • Preserving cell formatting during value replacement

Usage

import sys
sys.path.insert(0, '/app/environment/skills/evo-excel-io/scripts')
from utils import (
    load_workbook_safe,
    find_missing_cells,
    get_cell_value_safe,
    write_recovered_value,
    save_workbook_safe,
    is_numeric,
    is_missing
)

# Load workbook (data_only=True for cached formula values)
wb = load_workbook_safe('input.xlsx')

# Find all ??? cells
missing = find_missing_cells(wb)  # Returns list of {sheet, row, col, coordinate}

# Safely read a cell (handles merged cells)
val = get_cell_value_safe(ws, row=5, col=3)

# Write recovered value
write_recovered_value(ws, row=5, col=3, 1534)

# Save with AppVersion fix
save_workbook_safe(wb, 'output.xlsx')

Functions

  • load_workbook_safe(filepath, data_only=True) - Load workbook with safe defaults
  • find_missing_cells(wb, marker="???") - Find all cells with marker across all sheets
  • get_cell_value_safe(ws, row, col) - Read cell value handling MergedCell
  • write_recovered_value(ws, row, col, value) - Write numeric value preserving format
  • save_workbook_safe(wb, output_path) - Save with AppVersion monkey-patch
  • is_numeric(value) - Check if value is int/float (not bool)
  • is_missing(value, marker="???") - Check if value is the missing marker
Files

What ships with it

2 files 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.
