    From the README

    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.

    PPT creation process using OfficeCLI on AionUi

    All documents above were created entirely by AI agents using OfficeCLI — no templates, no manual editing.

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

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

    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:

    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.
