+# Build New xlsx from Scratch
+
+Create new, production-quality xlsx files using the XML approach. NEVER use openpyxl
+for writing. NEVER hardcode Python-computed values — every derived number must be a
+live Excel formula.
+
+---
+
+## When to Use This Path
+
+Use this document when the user wants:
+- A brand-new Excel file that does not yet exist
+- A generated report, financial model, or data table
+- Any "create / build / generate / make" request
+
+If the user provides an existing file to modify, switch to `edit.md` instead.
+
+---
+
+## The Non-Negotiable Rules
+
+Before touching any file, internalize these four rules:
+
+1. **Formula-First**: Every calculated value (`SUM`, growth rate, ratio, subtotal, etc.)
+   MUST be written as `<f>SUM(B2:B9)</f>`, not as a hardcoded `<v>5000</v>`. Hardcoded
+   numbers go stale when source data changes. Only raw inputs and assumption parameters
+   may be hardcoded values.
+
+2. **No openpyxl for writing**: The entire file is built by editing XML directly. Python
+   is only allowed for reading/analysis (`pandas.read_excel()`) and for running helper
+   scripts (`xlsx_pack.py`, `formula_check.py`).
+
+3. **Style encodes meaning**: Blue font = user input/assumption. Black font = formula
+   result. Green font = cross-sheet reference. See `format.md` for the full color system
+   and style index table.
+
+4. **Validate before delivery**: Run `formula_check.py` and fix all errors before
+   handing the file to the user.
+
+---
+
+## Complete Creation Workflow
+
+### Step 1 — Plan Before Writing
+
+Define the full structure on paper before touching any XML:
+
+- **Sheets**: names, order, purpose (e.g., Assumptions / Model / Summary)
+- **Layout per sheet**: which rows are headers, inputs, formulas, totals
+- **String inventory**: collect all text labels you will need in sharedStrings
+- **Style choices**: what number format each column needs (currency, %, integer, year)
+- **Cross-sheet links**: which sheets pull data from other sheets
+
+This planning step prevents the costly cycle of adding strings to sharedStrings
+mid-way and recomputing all indices.
+
+---
+
+### Step 2 — Copy Minimal Template
+
+```bash
+cp -r SKILL_DIR/templates/minimal_xlsx/ /tmp/xlsx_work/
+```
+
+The template gives you a complete, valid 7-file xlsx skeleton:
+
+```
+/tmp/xlsx_work/
+├── [Content_Types].xml        ← MIME type registry
+├── _rels/
+│   └── .rels                  ← root relationship (points to workbook.xml)
+└── xl/
+    ├── workbook.xml            ← sheet list and calc settings
+    ├── styles.xml              ← 13 pre-built financial style slots
+    ├── sharedStrings.xml       ← text string table (starts empty)
+    ├── _rels/
+    │   └── workbook.xml.rels  ← maps rId → file paths
+    └── worksheets/
+        └── sheet1.xml          ← one empty sheet
+```
+
+After copying, rename sheets and add content. Do not create files from scratch —
+always start from the template.
+
+---
+
+### Step 3 — Configure Sheet Structure
+
+#### Single-Sheet Workbook
+
+The template already has one sheet named "Sheet1". Just change the `name` attribute
+in `xl/workbook.xml`:
+
+```xml
+<sheets>
+  <sheet name="Revenue Model" sheetId="1" r:id="rId1"/>
+</sheets>
+```
+
+No other files need to change for a single-sheet workbook.
+
+#### Multi-Sheet Workbook
+
+Four files must be kept in sync. Work through them in this order:
+
+**IMPORTANT — rId collision rule**: In the template's `workbook.xml.rels`, the IDs
+`rId1`, `rId2`, and `rId3` are already taken:
+- `rId1` → `worksheets/sheet1.xml`
+- `rId2` → `styles.xml`
+- `rId3` → `sharedStrings.xml`
+
+New worksheet entries MUST start at `rId4` and count upward.
+
+**File 1 of 4 — `xl/workbook.xml`** (sheet list):
+
+```xml
+<sheets>
+  <sheet name="Assumptions" sheetId="1" r:id="rId1"/>
+  <sheet name="Model"       sheetId="2" r:id="rId4"/>
+  <sheet name="Summary"     sheetId="3" r:id="rId5"/>
+</sheets>
+```
+
+Special characters in sheet names:
+- `&` → `&amp;` in XML: `<sheet name="P&amp;L" .../>`
+- Max 31 characters
+- Forbidden: `/ \ ? * [ ] :`
+- Sheet names with spaces need single quotes in formula references: `'Q1 Data'!B5`
+
+**File 2 of 4 — `xl/_rels/workbook.xml.rels`** (ID → file mapping):
+
+```xml
+<Relationships xmlns="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/package/2006/relationships">
+  <Relationship Id="rId1"
+    Type="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/officeDocument/2006/relationships/worksheet"
+    Target="worksheets/sheet1.xml"/>
+  <Relationship Id="rId2"
+    Type="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/officeDocument/2006/relationships/styles"
+    Target="styles.xml"/>
+  <Relationship Id="rId3"
+    Type="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/officeDocument/2006/relationships/sharedStrings"
+    Target="sharedStrings.xml"/>
+  <Relationship Id="rId4"
+    Type="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/officeDocument/2006/relationships/worksheet"
+    Target="worksheets/sheet2.xml"/>
+  <Relationship Id="rId5"
+    Type="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/officeDocument/2006/relationships/worksheet"
+    Target="worksheets/sheet3.xml"/>
+</Relationships>
+```
+
+**File 3 of 4 — `[Content_Types].xml`** (MIME type declarations):
+
+```xml
+<Types xmlns="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/package/2006/content-types">
+  <Default Extension="rels" ContentType="application/vnd.openxmlformats-package.relationships+xml"/>
+  <Default Extension="xml"  ContentType="application/xml"/>
+  <Override PartName="/xl/workbook.xml"
+    ContentType="application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet.main+xml"/>
+  <Override PartName="/xl/worksheets/sheet1.xml"
+    ContentType="application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.worksheet+xml"/>
+  <Override PartName="/xl/worksheets/sheet2.xml"
+    ContentType="application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.worksheet+xml"/>
+  <Override PartName="/xl/worksheets/sheet3.xml"
+    ContentType="application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.worksheet+xml"/>
+  <Override PartName="/xl/styles.xml"
+    ContentType="application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.styles+xml"/>
+  <Override PartName="/xl/sharedStrings.xml"
+    ContentType="application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sharedStrings+xml"/>
+</Types>
+```
+
+**File 4 of 4 — Create new worksheet XML files**
+
+Copy `sheet1.xml` to `sheet2.xml` and `sheet3.xml`, then clear the `<sheetData>` content:
+
+```xml
+<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
+<worksheet
+  xmlns="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/spreadsheetml/2006/main"
+  xmlns:r="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/officeDocument/2006/relationships">
+  <sheetViews>
+    <sheetView workbookViewId="0"/>
+  </sheetViews>
+  <sheetFormatPr defaultRowHeight="15" x14ac:dyDescent="0.25"
+    xmlns:x14ac="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/spreadsheetml/2009/9/ac"/>
+  <sheetData>
+    <!-- Data rows go here -->
+  </sheetData>
+  <pageMargins left="0.7" right="0.7" top="0.75" bottom="0.75" header="0.3" footer="0.3"/>
+</worksheet>
+```
+
+**Sync checklist** — every time you add a sheet, verify all four are consistent:
+
+| Check | What to verify |
+|-------|---------------|
+| `workbook.xml` | New `<sheet name="..." sheetId="N" r:id="rIdX"/>` exists |
+| `workbook.xml.rels` | New `<Relationship Id="rIdX" ... Target="worksheets/sheetN.xml"/>` exists |
+| `[Content_Types].xml` | New `<Override PartName="/xl/worksheets/sheetN.xml" .../>` exists |
+| Filesystem | `xl/worksheets/sheetN.xml` file actually exists |
+
+---
+
+### Step 4 — Populate sharedStrings
+
+All text values (headers, row labels, category names, any string the user will read)
+must be stored in `xl/sharedStrings.xml`. Cells reference them by 0-based index.
+
+**Recommended workflow**: collect ALL text you need first, write the complete table once,
+then fill in indices while writing worksheet XML. This avoids re-counting indices mid-way.
+
+```xml
+<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
+<sst xmlns="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/spreadsheetml/2006/main"
+     count="10" uniqueCount="10">
+  <si><t>Item</t></si>                  <!-- index 0 -->
+  <si><t>FY2023A</t></si>               <!-- index 1 -->
+  <si><t>FY2024E</t></si>               <!-- index 2 -->
+  <si><t>FY2025E</t></si>               <!-- index 3 -->
+  <si><t>YoY Growth</t></si>            <!-- index 4 -->
+  <si><t>Revenue</t></si>               <!-- index 5 -->
+  <si><t>Cost of Goods Sold</t></si>    <!-- index 6 -->
+  <si><t>Gross Profit</t></si>          <!-- index 7 -->
+  <si><t>EBITDA</t></si>                <!-- index 8 -->
+  <si><t>Net Income</t></si>            <!-- index 9 -->
+</sst>
+```
+
+**Attribute rules**:
+- `uniqueCount` = number of `<si>` elements (unique strings in the table)
+- `count` = total number of cell references to strings across the entire workbook
+  (if "Revenue" appears in 3 sheets, count is `uniqueCount + 2`)
+- For new files where each string appears once, `count == uniqueCount`
+- Both attributes MUST be accurate — wrong values trigger warnings in some Excel versions
+
+**Special character escaping**:
+
+```xml
+<si><t>R&amp;D Expenses</t></si>          <!-- & must be &amp; -->
+<si><t>Revenue &lt; Target</t></si>        <!-- < must be &lt; -->
+<si><t xml:space="preserve">  (note)  </t></si>  <!-- preserve leading/trailing spaces -->
+```
+
+**Helper script**: use `shared_strings_builder.py` to generate the complete
+`sharedStrings.xml` from a plain list of strings:
+
+```bash
+python3 SKILL_DIR/scripts/shared_strings_builder.py \
+  "Item" "FY2024" "FY2025" "Revenue" "Gross Profit" \
+  > /tmp/xlsx_work/xl/sharedStrings.xml
+```
+
+Or interactively from a file listing one string per line:
+
+```bash
+python3 SKILL_DIR/scripts/shared_strings_builder.py --file strings.txt \
+  > /tmp/xlsx_work/xl/sharedStrings.xml
+```
+
+---
+
+### Step 5 — Write Worksheet Data
+
+Edit each `xl/worksheets/sheetN.xml`. Replace the empty `<sheetData>` with rows
+and cells.
+
+#### Cell XML Anatomy
+
+```
+<c r="B5" t="s" s="4">
+      ↑     ↑    ↑
+   address  type  style index (from cellXfs in styles.xml)
+
+  <v>3</v>
+     ↑
+  value (for t="s": sharedStrings index; for numbers: the number itself)
+```
+
+#### Data Type Reference
+
+| Data | `t` attr | XML Example | Notes |
+|------|---------|-------------|-------|
+| Shared string (text) | `s` | `<c r="A1" t="s" s="4"><v>0</v></c>` | `<v>` = sharedStrings index |
+| Number | omit | `<c r="B2" s="5"><v>1000000</v></c>` | default type, `t` omitted |
+| Percentage (as decimal) | omit | `<c r="C2" s="7"><v>0.125</v></c>` | 12.5% stored as 0.125 |
+| Boolean | `b` | `<c r="D1" t="b"><v>1</v></c>` | 1=TRUE, 0=FALSE |
+| Formula | omit | `<c r="B4" s="2"><f>SUM(B2:B3)</f><v></v></c>` | `<v>` left empty |
+| Cross-sheet formula | omit | `<c r="C1" s="3"><f>Assumptions!B2</f><v></v></c>` | use s=3 (green) |
+
+#### A Full Sheet Data Example
+
+```xml
+<cols>
+  <col min="1" max="1" width="26" customWidth="1"/>   <!-- A: label column -->
+  <col min="2" max="5" width="14" customWidth="1"/>   <!-- B-E: data columns -->
+</cols>
+<sheetData>
+
+  <!-- Row 1: headers (style 4 = bold header) -->
+  <row r="1" ht="18" customHeight="1">
+    <c r="A1" t="s" s="4"><v>0</v></c>   <!-- "Item" -->
+    <c r="B1" t="s" s="4"><v>1</v></c>   <!-- "FY2023A" -->
+    <c r="C1" t="s" s="4"><v>2</v></c>   <!-- "FY2024E" -->
+    <c r="D1" t="s" s="4"><v>3</v></c>   <!-- "FY2025E" -->
+    <c r="E1" t="s" s="4"><v>4</v></c>   <!-- "YoY Growth" -->
+  </row>
+
+  <!-- Row 2: Revenue — actual value (input) + formula (computed) -->
+  <row r="2">
+    <c r="A2" t="s" s="1"><v>5</v></c>    <!-- "Revenue", blue input label -->
+    <c r="B2" s="5"><v>85000000</v></c>   <!-- FY2023A actual: $85M, currency input -->
+    <c r="C2" s="6"><f>B2*(1+Assumptions!C3)</f><v></v></c>   <!-- formula, currency -->
+    <c r="D2" s="6"><f>C2*(1+Assumptions!D3)</f><v></v></c>
+    <c r="E2" s="8"><f>D2/C2-1</f><v></v></c>   <!-- YoY growth, percentage formula -->
+  </row>
+
+  <!-- Row 3: Gross Profit -->
+  <row r="3">
+    <c r="A3" t="s" s="2"><v>7</v></c>    <!-- "Gross Profit", black formula label -->
+    <c r="B3" s="6"><f>B2*Assumptions!B4</f><v></v></c>
+    <c r="C3" s="6"><f>C2*Assumptions!C4</f><v></v></c>
+    <c r="D3" s="6"><f>D2*Assumptions!D4</f><v></v></c>
+    <c r="E3" s="8"><f>D3/C3-1</f><v></v></c>
+  </row>
+
+  <!-- Row 5: SUM total row -->
+  <row r="5">
+    <c r="A5" t="s" s="4"><v>8</v></c>    <!-- "EBITDA" -->
+    <c r="B5" s="6"><f>SUM(B2:B4)</f><v></v></c>
+    <c r="C5" s="6"><f>SUM(C2:C4)</f><v></v></c>
+    <c r="D5" s="6"><f>SUM(D2:D4)</f><v></v></c>
+    <c r="E5" s="8"><f>D5/C5-1</f><v></v></c>
+  </row>
+
+</sheetData>
+```
+
+#### Column Width and Freeze Pane
+
+Column widths go **before** `<sheetData>`, freeze pane goes inside `<sheetView>`:
+
+```xml
+<!-- Inside <sheetViews><sheetView ...> — freeze the header row -->
+<pane ySplit="1" topLeftCell="A2" activePane="bottomLeft" state="frozen"/>
+
+<!-- Before <sheetData> — set column widths -->
+<cols>
+  <col min="1" max="1" width="28" customWidth="1"/>
+  <col min="2" max="8" width="14" customWidth="1"/>
+</cols>
+```
+
+---
+
+### Step 6 — Apply Styles
+
+The template's `xl/styles.xml` has 13 pre-built semantic style slots (indices 0–12).
+**Read `format.md` for the complete style index table, color system, and how to add new styles.**
+
+Quick reference for the most common slots:
+
+| `s` | Role | Example |
+|-----|------|---------|
+| 4 | Header (bold) | Column/row titles |
+| 5 / 6 | Currency input (blue) / formula (black) | `$#,##0` |
+| 7 / 8 | Percentage input / formula | `0.0%` |
+| 11 | Year (no comma) | 2024 not 2,024 |
+
+Design principle: Blue = human sets this. Black = Excel computes this. Green = cross-sheet.
+
+If you need a style not in the 13 pre-built slots, follow the append-only procedure in `format.md` section 3.2.
+
+---
+
+### Step 7 — Formula Cookbook
+
+#### XML Formula Syntax Reminder
+
+Formulas in XML have **no leading `=`**:
+
+```xml
+<!-- Excel UI: =SUM(B2:B9)   →   XML: -->
+<c r="B10" s="6"><f>SUM(B2:B9)</f><v></v></c>
+```
+
+#### Basic Aggregations
+
+```xml
+<c r="B10" s="6"><f>SUM(B2:B9)</f><v></v></c>
+<c r="B11" s="6"><f>AVERAGE(B2:B9)</f><v></v></c>
+<c r="B12" s="10"><f>COUNT(B2:B9)</f><v></v></c>
+<c r="B13" s="10"><f>COUNTA(A2:A100)</f><v></v></c>
+<c r="B14" s="6"><f>MAX(B2:B9)</f><v></v></c>
+<c r="B15" s="6"><f>MIN(B2:B9)</f><v></v></c>
+```
+
+#### Financial Calculations
+
+```xml
+<!-- YoY growth rate: current / prior - 1 -->
+<c r="E5" s="8"><f>D5/C5-1</f><v></v></c>
+
+<!-- Gross profit: revenue × gross margin -->
+<c r="B6" s="6"><f>B4*B3</f><v></v></c>
+
+<!-- EBITDA margin: EBITDA / Revenue -->
+<c r="B9" s="8"><f>B8/B4</f><v></v></c>
+
+<!-- Suppress #DIV/0! when denominator may be zero -->
+<c r="E5" s="8"><f>IF(C5=0,0,D5/C5-1)</f><v></v></c>
+
+<!-- NPV and IRR (cash flows in B2:B7, discount rate in B1) -->
+<c r="C1" s="6"><f>NPV(B1,B3:B7)+B2</f><v></v></c>
+<c r="C2" s="8"><f>IRR(B2:B7)</f><v></v></c>
+```
+
+#### Cross-Sheet References
+
+```xml
+<!-- No spaces in name: no quotes needed -->
+<c r="B3" s="3"><f>Assumptions!B5</f><v></v></c>
+
+<!-- Space in sheet name: single quotes required -->
+<c r="B3" s="3"><f>'Q1 Data'!B5</f><v></v></c>
+
+<!-- Ampersand in sheet name (XML-escaped in workbook.xml, but in formula: literal &) -->
+<c r="B3" s="3"><f>'R&amp;D'!B5</f><v></v></c>
+
+<!-- Cross-sheet range: SUM of a range in another sheet -->
+<c r="B10" s="6"><f>SUM(Data!C2:C1000)</f><v></v></c>
+
+<!-- 3D reference: sum same cell across multiple sheets -->
+<c r="B5" s="6"><f>SUM(Jan:Dec!B5)</f><v></v></c>
+```
+
+Cross-sheet formula cells should use `s="3"` (green) to signal the data origin.
+
+#### Shared Formulas (Same Pattern Repeated Down a Column)
+
+When many consecutive cells share the same formula structure with only the row number
+changing, use shared formulas to keep the XML compact:
+
+```xml
+<!-- D2: defines the shared group (si="0", ref="D2:D11") -->
+<c r="D2" s="8"><f t="shared" ref="D2:D11" si="0">C2/B2-1</f><v></v></c>
+
+<!-- D3 through D11: reference the same group, no formula text needed -->
+<c r="D3" s="8"><f t="shared" si="0"/><v></v></c>
+<c r="D4" s="8"><f t="shared" si="0"/><v></v></c>
+<c r="D5" s="8"><f t="shared" si="0"/><v></v></c>
+<c r="D6" s="8"><f t="shared" si="0"/><v></v></c>
+<c r="D7" s="8"><f t="shared" si="0"/><v></v></c>
+<c r="D8" s="8"><f t="shared" si="0"/><v></v></c>
+<c r="D9" s="8"><f t="shared" si="0"/><v></v></c>
+<c r="D10" s="8"><f t="shared" si="0"/><v></v></c>
+<c r="D11" s="8"><f t="shared" si="0"/><v></v></c>
+```
+
+Excel adjusts relative references automatically (D3 computes `C3/B3-1`, etc.).
+If you have multiple shared formula groups, assign sequential `si` values (0, 1, 2, …).
+
+#### Absolute References
+
+```xml
+<!-- $B$2 locks to that cell when the formula is copied -->
+<c r="C5" s="8"><f>B5/$B$2</f><v></v></c>
+```
+
+The `$` character needs no XML escaping — write it literally.
+
+#### Lookup Formulas
+
+```xml
+<!-- VLOOKUP: exact match (last arg 0) -->
+<c r="C5" s="6"><f>VLOOKUP(A5,Assumptions!A:C,2,0)</f><v></v></c>
+
+<!-- INDEX/MATCH: more flexible -->
+<c r="C5" s="6"><f>INDEX(B:B,MATCH(A5,A:A,0))</f><v></v></c>
+
+<!-- XLOOKUP (Excel 2019+) -->
+<c r="C5" s="6"><f>XLOOKUP(A5,A:A,B:B)</f><v></v></c>
+```
+
+---
+
+### Step 8 — Pack and Validate
+
+**Pack**:
+
+```bash
+python3 SKILL_DIR/scripts/xlsx_pack.py /tmp/xlsx_work/ /path/to/output.xlsx
+```
+
+`xlsx_pack.py` will:
+1. Check that `[Content_Types].xml` exists at the root
+2. Parse every `.xml` and `.rels` file for well-formedness — abort if any fail
+3. Create the ZIP archive with correct compression
+
+**Validate**:
+
+```bash
+python3 SKILL_DIR/scripts/formula_check.py /path/to/output.xlsx
+```
+
+`formula_check.py` will:
+1. Scan every cell for `<c t="e">` entries (cached error values) — all 7 error types
+2. Extract sheet name references from every `<f>` formula
+3. Verify each referenced sheet exists in `workbook.xml`
+
+Fix every reported error before delivery. Exit code 0 = safe to deliver.
+
+---
+
+## Pre-Delivery Checklist
+
+Run through this list before handing the file to the user:
+
+- [ ] `formula_check.py` reports 0 errors
+- [ ] Every calculated cell has `<f>` — not just `<v>` with a number
+- [ ] `sharedStrings.xml` `count` and `uniqueCount` match actual `<si>` count
+- [ ] Every cell `s` attribute value is in range `0` to `cellXfs count - 1`
+- [ ] Every sheet in `workbook.xml` has a matching entry in `workbook.xml.rels`
+- [ ] Every `worksheets/sheetN.xml` file has a matching `<Override>` in `[Content_Types].xml`
+- [ ] Year columns use `s="11"` (format `0`, no thousands separator)
+- [ ] Cross-sheet reference formulas use `s="3"` (green font)
+- [ ] Assumption inputs use `s="1"` or `s="5"` or `s="7"` (blue font)
+

+
+## Common Mistakes and Fixes
+
+| Mistake | Symptom | Fix |
+|---------|---------|-----|
+| Formula has leading `=` | Cell shows `=SUM(...)` as text | Remove `=` from `<f>` content |
+| sharedStrings `count` not updated | Excel warning or blank cells | Count `<si>` elements, update both `count` and `uniqueCount` |
+| Style index out of range | File corruption / Excel repair | Ensure `s` < `cellXfs count`; append new `<xf>` if needed |
+| New sheet rId conflicts with styles/sharedStrings rId | Sheet missing or styles lost | New sheets use rId4, rId5, … (rId1-3 are reserved in template) |
+| Sheet name has `&` unescaped in XML | XML parse error | Use `&amp;` in `workbook.xml` name attribute |
+| Cross-sheet ref to sheet with space, no quotes | `#REF!` error | Wrap sheet name in single quotes: `'Sheet Name'!B5` |
+| Cross-sheet ref to non-existent sheet | `#REF!` error | Check `workbook.xml` sheet list vs formula |
+| Number stored as text (`t="s"`) | Left-aligned, can't sum | Remove `t` attribute from number cells |
+| Year displayed as `2,024` | Readability issue | Use `s="11"` (numFmtId=1, format `0`) |
+| Hardcoded Python result instead of formula | "Dead table" — won't update | Replace `<v>N</v>` with `<f>formula</f><v></v>` |

+## Typical Scenario Walkthroughs
+
+### Scenario A — Three-Year Financial Model (Single Sheet)
+
+Layout: rows 1-12 = Assumptions (blue inputs) / rows 14-30 = Model (black formulas).

+  </row>
+</sheetData>
+```
+
+### Scenario B — Data + Summary (Two Sheets)
+
+The `Summary` sheet pulls from `Data` using cross-sheet formulas (green, `s="3"`):
+
+```xml
+<!-- Summary/sheet2.xml sheetData excerpt -->
+<sheetData>
+  <row r="1">
+    <c r="A1" t="s" s="4"><v>0</v></c>   <!-- "Metric" -->
+    <c r="B1" t="s" s="4"><v>1</v></c>   <!-- "Value" -->
+  </row>
+  <row r="2">
+    <c r="A2" t="s" s="0"><v>2</v></c>   <!-- "Total Revenue" -->
+    <c r="B2" s="3"><f>SUM(Data!C2:C10000)</f><v></v></c>
+  </row>
+  <row r="3">
+    <c r="A3" t="s" s="0"><v>3</v></c>   <!-- "Deal Count" -->
+    <c r="B3" s="3"><f>COUNTA(Data!A2:A10000)</f><v></v></c>
+  </row>
+  <row r="4">
+    <c r="A4" t="s" s="0"><v>4</v></c>   <!-- "Avg Deal Size" -->
+    <c r="B4" s="3"><f>IF(B3=0,0,B2/B3)</f><v></v></c>
+  </row>
+</sheetData>
+```
+
+### Scenario C — Multi-Department Consolidation
+
+`Consolidated` sheet sums the same cells from multiple department sheets:
+
+```xml
+<!-- Consolidated/sheet4.xml — summing across Dept_Eng and Dept_Mkt -->
+<sheetData>
+  <row r="5">
+    <c r="A5" t="s" s="2"><v>0</v></c>
+    <!-- No spaces in sheet names → no quotes needed -->
+    <c r="B5" s="3"><f>Dept_Engineering!B5+Dept_Marketing!B5</f><v></v></c>
+  </row>
+  <row r="6">
+    <c r="A6" t="s" s="2"><v>1</v></c>
+    <c r="B6" s="3"><f>SUM(Dept_Engineering!B6,Dept_Marketing!B6)</f><v></v></c>
+  </row>
+</sheetData>
+```
+
+---
+
+## What You Must NOT Do
+
+- Do NOT use openpyxl or any Python library to write the final xlsx file
+- Do NOT hardcode any calculated value — use `<f>` formulas for every derived number
+- Do NOT deliver without running `formula_check.py` first
+- Do NOT set a cell's `s` attribute to a value >= `cellXfs count`
+- Do NOT modify an existing `<xf>` entry in `styles.xml` — only append new ones
+- Do NOT add a new sheet without updating all four sync points (workbook.xml,
+  workbook.xml.rels, [Content_Types].xml, actual .xml file)
+- Do NOT assign new worksheet rIds that overlap with rId1, rId2, or rId3 (reserved
+  for sheet1, styles, sharedStrings in the template)
