Show HN: Visi – Excel as a CLI

Category: cli-tool

Tags: excel, cli, spreadsheet, rust, headless-evaluation

Score: 7.0/10 (Innovation: 7, Technical: 8, Documentation: 6, Utility: 7)

Visi is a Rust-based CLI tool that edits and evaluates Excel spreadsheets headlessly, aiming for 100% compatibility with Excel's execution behavior including pivot tables and VBA macros. It fills a gap for LLM-generated spreadsheet verification and cross-platform headless evaluation, with a differential fuzzing harness to match Excel results.

Target audience: backend devs, data engineers, devops, LLM agent developers
