agents!

[Li Yang @hewliyang]

but what if your agents didn't have to learn a new API :)

[Nuno Campos @nfcampos]

Code mode for spreadsheets, compatible with every coding agent (and OpenClaw!). Try it out and let me know what you think!

[Li Yang @hewliyang]

@samuelcolvin @zeddotdev https://t.co/NtviRdJiBV

if you need a embeddable web version. has deeper support for SpreadsheetML and DrawingML as well :) xlsx only tho.

[Li Yang @hewliyang]

it was mostly a hands-off process, which means a lot of slop. so be warned.

validation loop was essentially generate a parity list & a bunch of fixtures -> ralph until done

[Li Yang @hewliyang]

new experiment: slopped together a semi-decent excel previewer in 2 days

also usable as a NodeJS package to render ranges via skia-canvas (no browser needed)

of course, it's free and MIT licensed. maybe formula engine next!

@willchen500 you defo can!

obviously, parity at the long tails will always be a WIP. but if 80-90% is good enough, we can get there. better, more portable tooling for office formats are on the way

@brianchew @theo @TheICHpodcast @theo pls follow him so he can stop bugging me

@rachpradhan @NUSingapore coding is still a muscle so I get it. but enforcement can be easily gamed.

the more impt qn is how do we make sure students still learn. submission must include all agent trace jsonl's that instructors review?

@rachpradhan in the MRT

[rita kozlov 🐀 @ritakozlov]

POV: you’re at a conference but not about to shut your agent down

[Li Yang @hewliyang]

@badlogicgames Congrats gramps!

[Li Yang @hewliyang]

what the helly Shortcut forked Pi haha. great choice!

^ they're building their own excel engine as well to go with it

[Li Yang @hewliyang]

Time travelling to SF today!

[Li Yang @hewliyang]

the Claude models do fine. better if you give it screenshots. even better if you give it an existing template with a proper slide master. remember, these tools can edit, doesn't have to create from scratch

for excel, there is a better headless option (headless-spreadjs)

for powerpoint, yes but there is a bigger gap in functionality between Impress and PPT

[Li Yang @hewliyang]

ported over the office-agents/word toolset into a CLI

uv tool install headless-word
npx skills add hewliyang/headless-word
headless-word --help

gives any coding agent full fidelity DOCX editing including comments, track changes.

uses LibreOffice's UNO backend

works now but wip, vibe slopped this in an hour
this is perfect for offline processing when you cannot have a running office instance

[Li Yang @hewliyang]

@ivanleomk legendary picture

[Li Yang @hewliyang]

yikes. never been paranoid of installing random packages on local until today (for greenfield or local rubberducking). probably because previous supply chain attacks haven't been this close to my stack

maybe it's time to look into devcontainers

[Daniel Hnyk @hnykda]

LiteLLM HAS BEEN COMPROMISED, DO NOT UPDATE. We just discovered that LiteLLM pypi release 1.82.8. It has been compromised, it contains litellm_init.pth with base64 encoded instructions to send all the credentials it can find to remote server + self-replicate. link below

[Li Yang @hewliyang]

if you use pi & cli tools that produce images often, save yourself that bash<->read(image) roundtrip

pi install npm:pi-bash-image

[Li Yang @hewliyang]

@D3crypTor_X nope

[Li Yang @hewliyang]

OpenWord v0.0.1 is out

it is competent at most text editing operations, can insert images into your doc, has vision, can add & reply to comments, and even works with Track Changes (redlining)

[Li Yang @hewliyang]

checkout the system prompt, tools & install instructions here
