### 2026-08-15 (score 69)

First indexed and scored.

## MCP tools (4)

### `workbook_overview` (~55 tokens)

Workbook overview

Structure of an .xlsx workbook: sheets with dimensions and formula counts, defined names, external workbook links, merged cells. The map you need before tracing or auditing.

Input parameters:

- `path` (string, required): Path to an .xlsx workbook

### `list_formulas` (~87 tokens)

List formulas

Formulas with addresses and cached values. Filter with `contains` (e.g. 'INDIRECT', 'VLOOKUP') and/or `sheet`.

Input parameters:

- `contains` (string): Case-insensitive substring of the formula text
- `limit` (integer): Max results
- `path` (string, required): Path to an .xlsx workbook
- `sheet` (string): Only this sheet

### `trace_cell` (~102 tokens)

Trace a cell

Audit one cell: its formula and cached value, precedents (cells and ranges it reads), and dependents (formulas that read it, directly or via a range). Address like 'Summary!B14'; unqualified addresses use the first sheet.

Input parameters:

- `cell` (string, required): Cell address, e.g. B14 or 'Summary!B14'
- `max_dependents` (integer)
- `path` (string, required): Path to an .xlsx workbook

### `audit_workbook` (~66 tokens)

Audit the workbook

Risk report across the whole model: circular references (with example chains), volatile functions (INDIRECT/OFFSET/NOW/RAND...), hardcoded constants inside formulas, external workbook links, merged cells, very long formulas.

Input parameters:

- `path` (string, required): Path to an .xlsx workbook
