ax-cpp-flow

ax-cpp-flow is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ax-llm/ax. It costs 37 tokens per session (2,729 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A C++ guide for composing axllm programs into workflow graphs, where nodes read and write shared values.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to build C++ workflows with dependent steps, typed inputs and outputs, nested programs, dynamic options, caching, or optimizer components.
Why use it?
It explains how to connect generators, agents, and nested workflows while handling state, returns, caching, and errors. This makes multi-step AI workflows easier to define consistently.

About the project

Ax is a TypeScript-first programming framework for building applications with large language models through typed generation, agents, workflows, and optimization tools. It is intended for developers who want one model for LLM programs across TypeScript, Python, Java, C++, Go, Rust, and other runtimes.

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

ax-cpp-flow 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 yesterday.

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.

AxFlow 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

  • Compose generators, agents, and nested flows into a workflow graph.
  • Reason about flow state, node inputs, returns, caching, and errors.
  • Use generated package examples for flow graphs and provider-backed flows.

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

auto draft = axllm::ax("topicText:string -> draftText:string");
auto wf = axllm::flow(axllm::object({{"id", "docs.coreFlow"}}))
    .execute("draft", draft, axllm::object({
      {"reads", axllm::array({"topicText"})},
      {"writes", axllm::array({"draftResult", "draftText"})}
    }))
    .returns(axllm::object({{"draftText", "draftText"}}));

More Patterns

Typed programs

Build each flow node from its own input/output contract.

auto classifier = axllm::ax("requestText:string -> route:class \"support, sales, engineering\"");
auto responder = axllm::ax("requestText:string, route:string -> responseText:string");

Class decision

Declare reads and writes so the responder waits for the typed route.

auto branch_flow = axllm::flow(axllm::object({{"id", "docs.branchFlow"}}))
    .execute("classifier", classifier, axllm::object({{"reads", axllm::array({"requestText"})}, {"writes", axllm::array({"classifierResult", "route"})}}))
    .execute("responder", responder, axllm::object({{"reads", axllm::array({"requestText", "route"})}, {"writes", axllm::array({"responderResult", "responseText"})}}))
    .returns(axllm::object({{"route", "route"}, {"responseText", "responseText"}}));

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.
