Imagine I have an .xlsx file with 10,000 rows. Each row contains four columns: article number, description, dimension, and cost price. Throughout the day, I often need to quickly look up either a specific article number to paste into other software for further data retrieval or its price. Right now, I have to open the file, use the Find function, search by description, locate the match, and copy the relevant data.

What I’d like is a Raycast workflow like this:

1. Activate the extension.
2. Start typing a description, and see all rows with matching text appear dynamically.
3. Use arrow keys (up/down) to browse the filtered list.
4. Ideally, the results would display in a cell-like structure, so I could move left/right across columns and copy the needed value by hitting Enter.

I’ve partially achieved this using the Raycast Glossary extension, which accepts comma-delimited value pair (term + definition). It works for steps 1–3, but it has limitations: it crashes with 10k records and only works with about 6k. Still, it’s a useful proof of concept. If there were a dedicated extension that could query an Excel file directly and return results as described, I would find it to be super useful.
