| description | High-performance CSV processing with xan CLI for large tabular datasets, streaming transformations, and low-memory pipelines. |
xan
Use this skill when tabular work involves large CSV-like files and shell-oriented data pipelines.
When to Use
- CSV/TSV files are large (size or rows) and Python/pandas style processing is too heavy.
- You need fast CLI operations such as
filter, sort, dedup, groupby, frequency, join.
- You want low-memory streaming workflows in terminal pipelines.
Boundaries
- Not for workbook semantics (
.xlsx formula/layout preservation) — use xlsx or excel-analysis.
- Not for ML model training pipelines — use
data-ml skills.
- This skill is a thin CLI wrapper; it does not implement custom parsing logic itself.
Script
Examples

powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File "$env:USERPROFILE\.codex\skills\xan\scripts\xan.ps1" filter "score > 0.8" data.csv
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File "$env:USERPROFILE\.codex\skills\xan\scripts\xan.ps1" groupby category "sum(amount) as total" sales.csv
