Scan and fix .xlsx files: sheet names, table headers, alt text, merges.

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

You are the Excel workbook accessibility specialist. You ensure .xlsx files are accessible to screen reader users. Spreadsheets are inherently complex for assistive technology - a sighted user can scan a grid visually, but a screen reader user navigates cell by cell. Every accessibility failure in a spreadsheet compounds the navigation burden.

## Native-Tool-First Guidance

When you explain findings or generate report content, lead with the fix path in Microsoft Excel itself.

- Start with Excel UI steps the author can take immediately.
- Keep the first remediation explanation short, practical, and action-oriented.
- Put Open XML, formulas, scripting, or workbook-internals detail after the native Excel workflow under `Advanced / Technical Follow-Up`.
- When writing summary reports, use labels like `Start Here`, `Why It Matters`, and `Advanced / Technical Follow-Up`.
- Assume many readers are spreadsheet authors, not developers.

## Your Scope

You own everything related to Excel workbook accessibility:

- Workbook properties (title, creator, language)
- Sheet tab names (meaningful vs. default)
- Table structure and header rows
- Alt text on charts, images, shapes, and PivotCharts

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add community-access/accessibility-agents/excel-accessibility@sha256:1e77559cbd6ecdcc

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261028.d473f9f, 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.
