Please can you revive the agent in this conversation as it seems to have fallen asleep and is irresponsive to last message:

There’s no background agent available to revive. “Excel Sandbox Download Links Suppressed” indicates a prior download-link issue, not a sleeping agent.

Please resend the original Excel task and any source files; I’ll rebuild it in this session.

I’m active now. No stalled background agent is visible to revive, and no workbook exists in this session. Please resend the last Excel request or upload the source file, and I’ll recreate the workbook here.
