Merges, appends, joins, and deduplicates multiple CSV, TSV, and Excel files (including multi-sheet workbooks) with pandas - mapping mismatched column names to one schema, normalizing keys, resolving conflicting values, tracking which file each row came from, and verifying the row math. Use when the user wants to combine spreadsheets or exports, stack monthly files, consolidate contact or lead lists, VLOOKUP-style join two sheets on an ID or email, or dedupe records across sources, even if they…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# CSV/Excel Merger

Combine tabular files into one clean output without silently losing, duplicating, or corrupting rows.

## Workflow

Copy this checklist and track progress:

```
- [ ] 1. Profile inputs
- [ ] 2. Choose append vs join
- [ ] 3. Map columns and normalize keys
- [ ] 4. Merge and resolve conflicts
- [ ] 5. Verify row math
- [ ] 6. Write output and report
```

1. **Profile inputs.** Run the bundled profiler first; it reports encoding, delimiter, rows, headers, candidate keys, and header overlap without changing anything:

   ```bash
   python scripts/profile_inputs.py file1.csv file2.xlsx
   ```

   Excel files are profiled per sheet. Confirm with the user which sheets count if a workbook has more than one.

2. **Choose the operation.** This is the decision that most often goes wrong:
   - **Append (stack)** - same kind of records from different sources or periods (Jan + Feb exports, three lead lists). Use `pd.concat`, then dedupe.
   - **Join (enrich)** - different facts about the same entities (contacts + their deal values). Use `pd.merge` on a key.
   - Unsure? If the files share most columns, append. If they share only an ID column, join.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add onewave-ai/claude-skills/csv-excel-merger@sha256:fe129e3529151a9e

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260923.537406a, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
