GoKawiilNew Paper Office Python packages improve AI agents' Office file editing accuracy
A developer has released Paper Office, a suite of Python packages (paper-docx, paper-pptx, paper-xlsx) that let AI agents edit Word, PowerPoint and Excel files, building on the older python-docx, python-pptx and OpenPyxl libraries. In tests across five models and 61 tasks, Paper packages with guidance succeeded in 92.5% of trials, compared with 80.7% for the legacy libraries alone and 69.5% using Anthropic's Office skills, while agents resorted to editing raw file internals far less often (1.6% versus 78.7% and 50.5%).
