Can my AI agent convert MATLAB Figure to XLSX?
Yes. Install the Filestar CLI with npm install -g filestar and your agent can run filestarcli -i file.fig -c "convert to xlsx" on your computer, so your files stay on it.
A FIG file is a figure saved from MATLAB. It stores the plot itself - axes, lines, markers, surfaces, images, text, legends and colorbars - inside a MAT-file, so MATLAB can open and edit it again.
An XLSX file is an Excel spreadsheet created by Microsoft Excel or another spreadsheet program, such as OpenOffice Calc or Apple Numbers. It stores data in worksheets, which contain cells arranged in a grid of rows and columns, and may also contain charts, mathematical functions, styles, and formatting. XLSX files are commonly used to store financial data and to create simple or complex mathematical models.
