The ask

Sent verbatim as the prompt. The agent works in a copy of the workspace below and sees nothing else.

Ramona needs the Q2 sales by territory - territories down the side, months across - from the monthly exports in this folder. Save it as regional.xlsx with live formulas, plus memo.md with what she should know. Her note says how she counts them.
