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

analyzing-spreadsheets 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 (recalc.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 Processing

Create, edit, analyze .xlsx files. LibreOffice required for formula recalculation via recalc.py.

Iron Rule

Zero formula errors at delivery. All formulas must compute — no #REF!, #DIV/0!, #VALUE!, #N/A, #NAME?. Always run recalc.py after writing formulas.

Decision Matrix

Task Tool Reference
Data analysis, bulk ops, simple export pandas recipes.md
Formulas, formatting, Excel features openpyxl recipes.md
Financial model standards financial-model.md
Recalculate formulas recalc.py recipes.md

Common Workflow

  1. Choose tool: pandas for data, openpyxl for formulas/formatting
  2. Create/Load workbook
  3. Modify data, formulas, formatting
  4. Save
  5. Recalculate (MANDATORY if formulas): python recalc.py output.xlsx
  6. Verify & fix errors — check JSON output, fix #REF! / #DIV/0! / #VALUE! / #NAME?

Hard Constraints

  • Use formulas, not hardcoded values — calculations stay dynamic. See recipes.md.
  • Preserve existing templates — match existing format/style EXACTLY when updating; user template overrides defaults.
  • Financial models — follow color/format conventions in financial-model.md.

Code Style

  • Concise Python, no unnecessary comments or print statements.
  • Excel files: comment cells with complex formulas, document hardcode sources.
Files

What ships with it

3 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.
