What problem does it solve?
This Skill helps you create, edit, repair, and convert spreadsheet files (.xlsx/.xlsm/.csv/.tsv) while preserving formatting and ensuring formulas are valid and error-free.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Spreadsheet editing & transformation: Open and modify existing spreadsheet files, create new ones from scratch, and convert between table formats (including CSV/TSV to .xlsx).
- Formula-first model building: Build calculations directly in Excel formulas (not hard-coded results in Python) so outputs stay dynamically updateable.
- Recalculation and error repair workflow: Recompute all formulas using LibreOffice and detect Excel errors like #REF!, #DIV/0!, #VALUE!, and #NAME?; then iteratively repair and re-run recalculation.
- Financial modeling guardrails: Enforce spreadsheet conventions for fonts, zero-display formatting, assumption cell placement, and consistent color coding for inputs/links/flags; ensure deliverables are spreadsheets.
Quick Start
Use the xlsx skill to repair formula errors and regenerate a clean updated spreadsheet for the attached file 'model.xlsx'.
