    we need to fill templates that customers give us, we’ve already built an agent harness with python-docx. It’s not perfect but it ~works. Does Vespper completely replace that or can our harness be used alongside your MCP?

      Good question. Vespper is meant to replace the python-docx work for your agent and simplify things. That said, it can definitely run alongside your agent (either as additional tools to your agent or as a subagent that uses our tools).

      For example, you could keep python-docx for the easy stuff and fall back to a Vespper-based approach when your agent hits errors filling the document. However, the end goal is to completely free your agent from python-docx and low-level work, so it can just focus on what goes into the template.
