bilig-workpaper

Bilig WorkPaper runtime for Node.js services, tool integrations, and verified formula readback.

This is the unscoped npm entrypoint for the Bilig headless runtime. Use it when business logic is easiest to review as workbook cells and formulas, but the calculation needs to run in a backend service, queue worker, serverless route, test, or tool integration.

Install

npm install bilig-workpaper

Use A WorkPaper In Node

import { buildA1WorkPaper } from 'bilig-workpaper'

const book = buildA1WorkPaper({
  Inputs: [
    ['Metric', 'Value'],
    ['Units', 40],
    ['Price', 1200],
  ],
  Summary: [
    ['Metric', 'Value'],
    ['Revenue', '=Inputs!B2*Inputs!B3'],
  ],
})

const proof = book.editAndReadback('Inputs!B2', 48, {
  readbackRange: 'Summary!B2',
})

console.log({
  editedCell: proof.editedCell,
  after: proof.afterReadback.displayValues,
  afterRestore: proof.restoredReadback.displayValues,
  persistedDocumentBytes: proof.persistedDocumentBytes,
  verified: proof.verified,
})

book.dispose()

XLSX Import And Export

import { WorkPaper } from 'bilig-workpaper'
import { exportXlsx, importXlsx } from 'bilig-workpaper/xlsx'

Use xlsx-formula-recalc when you only need to edit and recalculate XLSX files. Use exceljs-formula-recalc when you already use ExcelJS and need recalculated formula results after changing inputs.

Tool Commands And Optional MCP

The npm tarball includes AGENTS.md, SKILL.md, and the same CLI entrypoints as @bilig/headless, so tool hosts can inspect node_modules/bilig-workpaper without discovering the scoped package first.

import { createWorkPaperMcpServer } from 'bilig-workpaper/mcp'

For package-owned proof commands, use:

npm exec --package bilig-workpaper -- bilig-evaluate --door workpaper-service --json
npm exec --package bilig-workpaper -- bilig-evaluate --door agent-mcp --json
npm exec --package bilig-workpaper -- bilig-agent-challenge
npm exec --package bilig-workpaper -- bilig-mcp-challenge
npm exec --package bilig-workpaper -- bilig-workpaper-mcp --workpaper ./pricing.workpaper.json --init-demo-workpaper --writable

bilig-evaluate prints a bilig-evaluator.v1 object. The challenge commands remain available for callers that already know the direct WorkPaper or MCP path they need.

For a runnable starter project, use npm create @bilig/workpaper.

Scope

Bilig is not a desktop Excel clone. It is a formula workbook runtime for service-owned calculations, JSON persistence, XLSX import/export, and verified readback. Unsupported Excel functions, external workbook links, macros, and volatile functions may need review.
