Ax Audio And Realtime For C++

This skill helps an agent write C++ code with the generated Ax package axllm. Use the generated package API, examples, and manifests; do not import TypeScript-only APIs unless you are editing the TypeScript package.

When To Use

• Map speech, transcription, or realtime events through the generated provider surface.
• Use no-key examples for event folding and provider request mapping.
• Keep live provider calls behind explicit credentials and provider-api examples.

Package Facts

• Language: C++.
• Package: axllm.
• Package API docs: API.md and axir-api.json.
• Capability manifest: axir-capabilities.json.
• Runnable examples: examples/.
• Real network support: yes.
• Scripted no-key transport support: yes.
• Runtime profiles: javascript-quickjs, python-pyodide.

Core Pattern

#include "axllm/axllm.hpp"

auto llm = axllm::ai("openai", { {"apiKey", std::getenv("OPENAI_API_KEY")} });

Speech And Audio Fields

• speak() returns TypeScript's speech result keys: data (base64 audio), format, mimeType, transcript (the spoken text), and sampleRate / channels when the mime type gives them. The older keys audio, mime_type, and sample_rate are removed.
• As in TypeScript, a binary speech body's Content-Type is its mimeType (else the format's mime type), and a JSON body (by its Content-Type) is read from audio_data, audioData, data, audio.data, output.audio.data, or a Gemini part's inline data. A JSON body with a bare string under audio, or without an audio data field, raises TypeScript's error.
• Speak requests match TypeScript: OpenAI defaults to gpt-4o-mini-tts with the alloy voice, sends a { id } voice by its id, sends speed when set, and asks for pcm when the format is pcm16; Mistral defaults to voxtral-mini-tts-2603 and sends the voice as voice_id; Grok sends speed when set.
• The renderer calls AIClient::speak(request, options): AxAIService clients speak, and the base AIClient throws.
• An AxGen audio output field becomes speech with the renderAudio / render_audio option (see the gen skill): the field then holds the speak() result, with the spoken text as its transcript.
• An agent's audio output fields render the same way when renderAudio / render_audio is set on the agent, its responderOptions, or the forward call (the call's wins); as in TypeScript, the responder's speak() request takes the forward call's speech or responderOptions.speech, not a top-level speech option.
• An audio input that is a string, or an audio object with a string transcript (a rendered audio output), reaches the model as text. Audio without a transcript goes as an audio part with only its format (wav when it has none) and data.
