lark-doc

Operate on Feishu cloud documents (Docx / Wiki): read, create, and edit documents; insert or download image attachments; and work with mind notes. Use when the user provides a document URL/token (including /docx/ or /wiki/ on doubao.com); route by URL path/token rather than domain. `/page/<token>` is a Miaoda app, not a Feishu cloud document. Route embedded document resources according to the unified rules in the reading reference. Use lark-drive for standalone comment operations; use docs +fetch to read comments alongside the main text. Operations on spreadsheet or Base internal data are outside this skill.

lark-drive

open.feishu.cn

830.7k

Feishu cloud storage (Drive): manage Drive files and folders, including uploads/downloads, folder creation, copying/moving/deleting, viewing metadata, checking permission settings, comments/permissions/subscriptions, titles, versions, Feishu document security labels (secure labels), and local file imports. Use when users need to organize Drive folders, handle cloud storage resource URLs/tokens, identify link types/actual tokens/titles, or import Word/Markdown/Excel/CSV/PPTX/.base as docx/sheet/bitable/slides. Route doubao.com cloud storage URLs/tokens by resource path and token too; do not fall back to WebFetch. Not responsible for: editing document content (use lark-doc), spreadsheet/Base table data operations (use lark-sheets/lark-base), knowledge space node/member management (use lark-wiki), or native Markdown file read/write/patch/diff (use lark-markdown).

lark-sheets

open.feishu.cn

829.3k

Feishu Spreadsheets: create and operate spreadsheets. Supports worksheets and row/column structures (add/delete/merge/size/hide/freeze/group), cell read/write (values/formulas/styles/comments/cell images), range copy/move/sort/fill, find and replace, bulk updates, and creating and maintaining objects such as charts, pivot tables, conditional formatting, filters and filter views, dropdown lists, sparklines, and floating images. Also supports formula validation, restoring historical versions, and importing/exporting local Excel/CSV files and Feishu spreadsheets. Use when users need to create or edit spreadsheets, summarize and visualize data, format spreadsheets, calculate formulas (including migrating Excel formulas), or build financial models (DCF, three statements, budgets, Sensitivity, etc.). For multidimensional tables (Base/bitable), use lark-base. If users want to search for spreadsheet files in cloud storage (Drive/cloud storage) by name or keyword, use lark-drive's drive +search to locate resources first. When users provide a doubao.com /sheets/ URL/token, use this skill directly; do not fall back to WebFetch because the domain is not Feishu. Routing is based on the URL path pattern and token, not the domain.
