• xlsx/recalc.py - Formula recalculation script

Routing Logic:

• "Create spreadsheet", "new Excel file" → Creation workflow (openpyxl)
• "Edit spreadsheet", "modify Excel" → Edit workflow (openpyxl)
• "Analyze data", "read Excel" → Analysis workflow (pandas)
• "Financial model", "formulas" → Financial modeling workflow
• "Recalculate formulas" → Recalculation workflow (recalc.py)

• Formula recalculation with LibreOffice
• Error detection and validation
• Preserve formatting and formulas when editing

📋 Document Processing Principles

DOCX Best Practices

1. Tracked Changes - Use redlining workflow for professional document review
2. Minimal Edits - Only mark text that actually changes, preserve original RSIDs
3. Batch Changes - Group related edits (3-10 changes) for efficient processing
4. Verification - Always convert to markdown to verify changes applied correctly

PDF Best Practices

1. Library Selection - pypdf for basic ops, pdfplumber for text/tables, reportlab for creation
2. OCR for Scanned - Use pytesseract + pdf2image for scanned documents
3. Form Filling - Follow forms.md for programmatic form completion
4. Command Line - Use qpdf/pdftotext for simple operations

PPTX Best Practices

1. Design First - Analyze content and choose appropriate colors/layouts before coding
2. Web-Safe Fonts - Only use web-safe fonts (Arial, Helvetica, Times, etc.)
3. Visual Verification - Always generate thumbnails to inspect layout issues
4. Template Analysis - Create inventory before using templates to understand structure

XLSX Best Practices

1. Use Formulas - ALWAYS use Excel formulas, NEVER hardcode calculated values
2. Zero Errors - Deliver with zero formula errors (#REF!, #DIV/0!, etc.)
3. Recalculate - Run recalc.py after creating/editing to update formula values
4. Financial Standards - Follow color coding (blue inputs, black formulas, green links)

Examples

Example 1: Create proposal with tracked changes

User: "Create a consulting proposal doc with redlining"
→ Routes to DOCX workflows
→ Creates document with docx-js
→ Enables tracked changes for review workflow
→ Outputs professional .docx with revision marks

Example 2: Fill a PDF form programmatically

User: "Fill out this NDA PDF with my info"
→ Routes to PDF workflows
→ Reads form fields from PDF
→ Fills fields programmatically with pdf-lib
→ Outputs completed, flattened PDF

Example 3: Build financial model spreadsheet

User: "Create a revenue projection spreadsheet"
→ Routes to XLSX workflows
→ Creates workbook with openpyxl
→ Adds formulas (never hardcoded values)
→ Runs recalc.py to update calculations
