name: xlsx description: "Open, create, read, analyze, edit, repair, or validate spreadsheet files (.xlsx, .xlsm, .xltx, .csv, .tsv) with zero format loss, with first-class support for Chinese / CJK content. Use whenever the user asks to create, build, modify, fill, analyze, read, repair, validate, or format any spreadsheet, workbook, report, dashboard, budget, financial model, pivot table, or tabular data file. Handles Chinese text, encodings (UTF-8 / GB18030 / GBK), full-width characters, CJK fonts in rendering, and Chinese number/date conventions (¥, 万/亿, 年/月/日). Covers: creating new workbooks from scratch, reading and analyzing existing files, editing existing workbooks while preserving pivot tables / VBA macros / charts / sparklines / conditional formatting / named ranges, formula recalculation and validation, visual review of results, and applying professional formatting. Triggers on 'spreadsheet', 'Excel', 'workbook', '表格', '工作簿', '.xlsx', '.xlsm', '.csv', 'pivot table', '透视表', 'macro', '宏', 'chart', '图表', 'financial model', '财务模型', 'formula', '公式', or any request to produce tabular data." license: MIT metadata: version: "2.0" category: productivity locale: zh-CN-aware sources: - ECMA-376 Office Open XML File Formats - Microsoft Open XML SDK documentation
Handle the request directly. Do NOT spawn sub-agents. Always write the output file the user requests, then verify it before delivering.
This is a vendor-neutral, general-purpose spreadsheet skill. It is not limited to finance and is explicitly built to work well in Chinese-language contexts: Chinese sheet names, headers and data; mixed CJK + ASCII; encodings beyond UTF-8 (GB18030/GBK) for CSV; full-width punctuation; CJK fonts during rendering; and Chinese number/date conventions. Finance-specific conventions are optional and isolated in their own section.
The golden loop for every task: READ → ACT → VERIFY. Never skip READ, never skip VERIFY.

# 2) ACT — pick ONE path (see Decision Guide below)
# - read-only analysis -> pandas
# - create new workbook -> XML template + xlsx_pack.py
# - edit / fill / fix existing -> unpack -> edit -> pack (zero format loss)
# 3) VERIFY — prove the file is correct and undamaged

If unsure which path to take, see the Decision Guide (section 2). If something breaks, see Troubleshooting (section 9). For Chinese-context specifics, see section 10.

CSV / TSV: for pure data work use pandas directly (mind the encoding — see section 10). To deliver an .xlsx, build it via the CREATE path so formatting and formulas are preserved.

Never modify the source.openpyxl.load_workbook(...).save() round-trip — it silently destroys VBA macros, pivot tables, charts, slicers, sparklines.libreoffice_recalc.py) and re-validate; if corruption, go to Troubleshooting.Format-preservation rule of thumb: if the file contains (or might contain) macros, pivots, charts, conditional formatting, named ranges, or sparklines, stay on the XML unpack/edit/pack path. xlsx_reader.py reports which of these are present.
references/read-analyze.md first)Start with xlsx_reader.py for structure discovery, then pandas for custom analysis. Never modify the source file.

Row lookup rule: when the task says “after row N (Label)”, find the row by searching for the label in sharedStrings.xml/worksheet XML and use the real row number + 1 for --at. xlsx_insert_row.py calls xlsx_shift_rows.py internally — do not call it separately.
Append a new <border> in xl/styles.xml, append an <xf> clone in <cellXfs> setting the new borderId, then apply that style index to every <c> in the row via the s attribute. Iterate over ALL cells A through the last column.

Review checklist: layout alignment, CJK text not clipped/tofu, number/date formats, error values, pivots/charts still render.
| Symptom | Cause | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| App shows “needs repair” on open | stale calcChain.xml, bad sharedStrings count, re-ordered/recompressed parts |
delete calcChain.xml; run formula_check.py; repack with xlsx_pack.py |
| Cells show old value or 0 after editing formula | openpyxl doesn’t calculate | run libreoffice_recalc.py, then re-render |
| Charts / pivots / macros vanished | openpyxl round-trip | redo via unpack/edit/pack; never Workbook().save() over existing file |
| Chinese text shows as 锟斤拷/锘/gibberish | wrong encoding | read/write XML as UTF-8; for CSV detect GB18030/GBK (section 10) |
| Chinese renders as □□□ boxes in PNG | missing CJK font | xlsx_render.py sets a CJK font; install Noto Sans CJK if doctor.py flags it |
| Wrong row edited | trusted prompt’s row number | locate by label text in the XML first |
Encoding
- .xlsx/.xlsm internals are always UTF-8 — keep them UTF-8 on edit.
- CSV/TSV from Chinese Windows Excel is usually GB18030/GBK (sometimes UTF-8 with BOM). When reading:
python
import pandas as pd
for enc in ("utf-8-sig", "gb18030", "utf-16"):
try:
df = pd.read_csv(path, encoding=enc); break
except UnicodeDecodeError:
continue
- When writing CSV for the user to open in Excel, use encoding="utf-8-sig" (BOM) so Excel shows Chinese correctly.
Text / XML
- Store Chinese cell text as inline strings and escape & < >. Sheet names, named ranges, and headers may be Chinese — quote sheet names in formulas: SUM('销售数据'!D2:D13).
- Beware full-width characters (,;:()% and full-width digits 123). Normalize to half-width for numeric parsing when needed (unicodedata.normalize('NFKC', s)).
Numbers & currency
- RMB currency format: "¥"#,##0.00 (or "¥" full-width). For accounting style use _-"¥"* #,##0.00_-;-"¥"* #,##0.00.
- 万/亿 scaling: Chinese reports often show 万 (10⁴) or 亿 (10⁸). Display via custom number format 0!.0,,"亿" is unreliable; prefer a helper column that divides (=B2/100000000) with header “金额(亿元)”, keeping the source value intact.
- Thousands separator #,##0; percentage 0.0%.
Dates
- Chinese date format: yyyy"年"m"月"d"日"; with weekday aaaa → 星期X. Keep the underlying value a real date serial, only the number format is Chinese.
Rendering & fonts
- Use xlsx_render.py (it selects an installed CJK font: Noto Sans CJK SC/TC, Source Han, WenQuanYi, or Microsoft YaHei if present). Verify with doctor.py.
Layout
- Widen columns for CJK (≈ chars × 2.1 + 2). Avoid wrapping headers awkwardly; set row height if wrapping Chinese text.
- Sorting Chinese text: default is by Unicode code point. If the user wants pinyin or stroke order, sort explicitly with pypinyin (pinyin) or document the limitation.
| Cell Role | Font Color | Hex |
|---|---|---|
| Hard-coded input / assumption | Blue | 0000FF |
| Formula / computed result | Black | 000000 |
| Cross-sheet reference formula | Green | 00B050 |
Finance display conventions (when applicable): zeros as -, negatives in red parentheses, multiples as 5.2x, units in headers (e.g. 营业收入(亿元)).
