Bilig WorkPaper Tools

May 26, 2026 ยท View on GitHub

Use the bilig-workpaper MCP tools when a user needs spreadsheet-style business logic without opening Excel, Google Sheets, LibreOffice, or a browser grid.

Preferred loop:

  1. Call list_sheets or read_range to inspect the workbook before editing.
  2. Use set_cell_contents for one intentional input or formula change.
  3. Read the dependent output with read_cell or get_cell_display_value.
  4. Export or persist the WorkPaper JSON when the result must be reproducible.

Treat write-only success as incomplete. A useful answer includes the sheet, address, old value, new value, recalculated output, and whether readback or persistence verified the result.

Use formula strings such as =0.4 or =TRUE() when passing numbers or booleans through clients that expect single-typed MCP parameters.

Do not claim full desktop Excel compatibility, macro execution, external link refresh, or arbitrary private spreadsheet mutation unless the user provided the WorkPaper file and the tool response proves the operation.
