Readoc

CLI tools that let AI agents read and edit Word documents, Excel sheets, and PDFs

Sometimes your agent needs to read or write to a Word doc or Excel spreadsheet. By default, it will have to wrangle some Python to do so, so why not make its life a bit easier? Readoc provides 3 different CLIs: readoc extracts the contents of a .docx, .xlsx, or PDF as structured text, readir explores and searches whole folders of mixed documents, and editdoc makes targeted edits to Office files without mangling their formatting.

Point an agent at a shared drive full of policies, budgets, and reports, and it can easily do something useful with them.
