Excel Analysis with Claude + MCP

To enable real-time AI interaction with Excel, configure the Excel MCP server:

1. Go to the GitHub repo.
2. Copy and add this block to your Claude config file under "mcpServers".
3. Save and restart Claude to activate the new tools.

"excel": {
  "command": "npx",
  "args": ["--yes", "@negokaz/excel-mcp-server"],
  "env": {
    "EXCEL_MCP_PAGING_CELLS_LIMIT": "4000"
  }
}

Once restarted, new Excel tools appear under Claude's Search & Tools tab.

Claude will:

• Open the workbook;
• Analyze the data;
• Create a new sheet with the requested stats.

All without you opening Excel!
