agent-xlsx

XLSX CLI for AI agents. JSON to stdout by default (raw text for --format csv|markdown). Polars+fastexcel for data reads (7-10x faster than openpyxl), openpyxl for metadata/writes, three rendering engines for visual capture (Aspose → Excel → LibreOffice), oletools for VBA.

Running

If agent-xlsx is not already installed, use uvx for zero-install execution:

uvx agent-xlsx probe report.xlsx

All examples below use agent-xlsx directly — prefix with uvx if not globally installed.

This file is a quick-start summary. Before constructing any command beyond the basic examples shown here, you must read commands.md for the full flag reference (types, defaults, edge cases, output schemas). For screenshot/recalc engine setup, read backends.md. Guessing at flags leads to errors — the reference is the source of truth.
