ExcelMcp 1.10.2

What's New

Minor Changes

  • #745 eabdeb3 Thanks @sbroenne! - Conditional formatting: full support for visual rule types (#743). add-rule can now create colorScale, dataBar, iconSet, top10, aboveAverage, timePeriod, uniqueValues and blanksCondition rules via discrete, LLM-friendly parameters (e.g. colorScaleMinColor, dataBarDirection, iconSetId, rank, aboveBelow, datePeriod). list-rules and list-worksheet-rules now report each visual rule's type-specific configuration — color-scale stops, data-bar settings, icon-set thresholds, top/bottom, above/below and date period — with colors as #RRGGBB, so visual rules can be fully inspected and round-tripped.

Patch Changes

  • #742 2bffe1d Thanks @sbroenne! - Release automation: make the changelog commit-back reliable. The post-release step that writes CHANGELOG.md back to main now opens a short-lived PR and merges it with an admin bypass, instead of pushing directly to main, fixing a case where the direct push was unexpectedly rejected.
