OfficeCLI — Word/Excel/PPT CLI for Agents

Main

• Keep office file generation deterministic: store templates in repo and only let agents edit specific placeholders.
• Use watch during development to validate layout changes quickly before running a batch pipeline.
• For CI, generate outputs into a dedicated artifact folder and diff structural changes between runs.

README excerpt (source)

# OfficeCLI

> **OfficeCLI is the world's first and the best Office suite designed for AI agents.**

**Give any AI agent full control over Word, Excel, and PowerPoint — in one line of code.**

Open-source. Single binary. No Office installation. No dependencies. Works everywhere.

**Built-in agent-friendly rendering engine** — agents can *see* what they create, no Office required. Render `.docx` / `.xlsx` / `.pptx` to HTML or PNG, closing the *render → look → fix* loop anywhere the binary runs.

FAQ

Q: Do I need Microsoft Office installed? A: The README states it works as a single binary without an Office installation.

Q: What’s the fastest demo? A: Create a file then run officecli watch to open the live preview URL.

Q: Can agents use it directly? A: The repo includes an agent-facing SKILL file and CLI commands; start with local files and least-privilege paths.
