+# Excel MCP
+
+Create and read Excel workbooks on the local machine. No network, no key. Real xlsx files written to and read from disk.
+
+This file is self contained. It reads public data only and never writes to the machine. All output is bounded and honest about what could not be fetched.
+
+## Tools
+
+
+* `create_workbook`  Create an xlsx workbook from rows.
+* `read_workbook`  Read the first rows of an existing workbook.
+
+## Usage
+
+```bash
+npm install
+npm run build
+node dist/index.js
+```
+
+Output files are written to the system temp directory and the path is returned.
