Gives Claude direct access to Microsoft Office files on your desktop through an Office Add-in sidecar. You can read and edit Word documents, Excel workbooks, and PowerPoint presentations from your local Microsoft 365 installation without uploading files to the cloud or wrestling with export formats. This is part of Mindstone's 35-connector suite and shares their host-orchestrated OAuth approach with the other Microsoft connectors, though this one specifically targets desktop Office rather than Graph API endpoints. Reach for it when you need to automate Office document workflows while keeping files local, or when you want Claude to manipulate slides, spreadsheets, and docs in their native formats.
