Very cool in theory. Unfortunately it's just 12klocs of a vibe-coded week-end project.
Edit: it's actually 50klocs since the pyOpenVBA dependency is from the same author and has been made the week-end before.

Please don't post shallow dismissals, especially of other people's work. A good critical comment teaches us something.

Claude ain't “other people” so I don't think this applies.
By the way, the guidelines proscribe AI-generated comments, so I don't see why AI-generated posts should be treated differently.
When was this specific guideline written? In 2008? And dies it really apply when we’re talking about slop?
As long as no one is trying to hide anything, I won't complain. Working on VBA outside of Excel seems useful, especially if reliably integrated with source control.
Ultimately this project's success will be determined by its test suite... it's tough to get quality tests by vibe coding.
