OfficeCLI

Office suite built for AI agents: one binary, no Office install, creates, reads and edits Word, Excel and PowerPoint, and renders them to HTML/PNG so the agent can see what it made. Ships as a skill.

Curator's take

When an agent has to *produce* a .docx, .xlsx or .pptx rather than merely read one: `officecli install` puts the binary on PATH and drops the skill into every coding agent it finds (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Copilot), `officecli watch deck.pptx` gives a live browser preview, and the built-in renderer closes the render → look → fix loop that makes generated documents actually acceptable. 30k stars, Apache-2.0, single C# binary on every platform. NOT for extraction pipelines — if you only need text and tables out of Office files, a converter is lighter — and NOT a document design system: it executes edits, it doesn't know what a good slide is.

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.

OfficeCLI's built-in HTML rendering engine reproduces documents with high fidelity — and that's what gives AI eyes. It renders .docx / .xlsx / .pptx to HTML or PNG, closing the render → look → fix loop.

For AI Agents — Get Started in One Line

Paste this into your AI agent's chat — it will read the skill file and install everything automatically:

curl -fsSL https://officecli.ai/SKILL.md

That's it. The skill file teaches the agent how to install the binary and use all commands.

For Humans

Option A — GUI: Install AionUi — a desktop app that lets you create and edit Office documents through natural language, powered by OfficeCLI under the hood. Just describe what you want, and AionUi handles the rest.

Option B — CLI: Download the binary for your platform from GitHub Releases, then run:

officecli install

This copies the binary to your PATH and installs the officecli skill into every AI coding agent it detects — Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, GitHub Copilot, and more. Your agent can immediately create, read, and edit Office documents on your behalf, no extra configuration needed.
