axonflow-explain-decision

axonflow-explain-decision is a command for Claude Code from getaxonflow/axonflow-claude-plugin. It costs 21 tokens per session (152 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that retrieves the full explanation for an AxonFlow policy decision. A policy is a rule that determines whether a coding-agent action is allowed, blocked, or needs an exception.

In plain words
What is it for?
Looking up a decision by ID, seeing which policy matched, checking its risk level and recent hit count, and finding out whether an override can be requested.
Why use it?
It explains a decision that may otherwise appear only as a short denial or result message. This helps identify the rule, risk, reason, and whether a temporary exception is possible.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

axonflow-explain-decision scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 8d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Fetch the explanation for a previously-made AxonFlow policy decision using the explain_decision MCP tool.

Decision ID to explain: $ARGUMENTS

If no decision ID was provided, ask the user for one (it's typically returned in the original deny block reason or in check_policy responses).

Present the result clearly:

  • Which policy fired (name + risk level)
  • The decision reason
  • Whether an override is available; if yes, suggest the user invoke /axonflow-create-override with a justification
  • The rolling 24h hit count for context

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
