xlsxComprehensive spreadsheet creation, editing, and analysis with support for formulas, formatting, data analysis, and pivot tables.
XLSX is an agent skill from benchflow-ai/skillsbench. Comprehensive spreadsheet creation, editing, and analysis with support for formulas, formatting, data analysis, and pivot tables. When Claude needs to work with spreadsheets (.xlsx files) for: (1) Creating new spreadsheets with data and formatting, (2) Reading or analyzing Excel data with pandas, (3) Creating pivot tables programmatically with openpyxl, (4) Building multi-sheet workbooks with source data and pivot table sheets, or (5) Any Excel file operations
Its SKILL.md is about 2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Documents & Office, covering Excel spreadsheets. It works with Microsoft Excel, openpyxl and pandas. The repository describes itself as: SkillsBench evaluates how well skills work and how effective agents are at using them. The licence is Apache-2.0.
6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9a1f4dd. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are python).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
XLSX loads about 2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 117 tokens; SKILL.md has 331 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

CRITICAL: All pivot tables MUST use cacheId=0. Using any other cacheId (1, 2, etc.) will cause openpyxl to fail when reading the file back with KeyError. This is an openpyxl limitation.

Comprehensive spreadsheet creation, editing, and analysis with support for formulas, formatting, data analysis, and pivot tables. XLSX is an agent skill from benchflow-ai/skillsbench. Comprehensive spreadsheet creation, editing, and analysis with support for formulas, formatting, data analysis, and pivot tables.
XLSX fits situations like: tasks that involve Excel spreadsheets.
Run `npx skills add benchflow-ai/skillsbench --skill xlsx -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (tasks/sales-pivot-analysis/environment/skills/xlsx in benchflow-ai/skillsbench) into .claude/skills/xlsx in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add benchflow-ai/skillsbench --skill xlsx -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (tasks/sales-pivot-analysis/environment/skills/xlsx in benchflow-ai/skillsbench) into .agents/skills/xlsx in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add benchflow-ai/skillsbench --skill xlsx -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/xlsx, .gemini/skills/xlsx, .github/skills/xlsx and .opencode/skills/xlsx in your project.
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: XLSX is instructions for the agent only. Our summary lists: Python 3.
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
XLSX is published under the Apache-2.0 licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 2k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 7.8k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
Skills that share tags, products or a category with XLSX: XLSX (mateaix/mateclaw, 1.1k stars), Kimi XLSX (thvroyal/kimi-skills, 238 stars), Office XLSX (singula-ai/alego, 109 stars) and Create Spreadsheet (theexperiencecompany/gaia, 308 stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.
