What is ax-go-agent-context?

A Go coding guide for choosing how an AI agent stores, organizes, improves, and recalls context while working with the Ax package.

Use it when writing Go agents with Ax, choosing context maps or policies, adding memory recall, or using offline optimization methods such as ACE and GEPA.

It helps avoid using the wrong kind of context, especially when handling long conversations or separating ongoing work from information kept across runs.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00050	$0.00536
Opus 5	$0.00025	$0.00268

Security

Grade A, and why

ax-go-agent-context 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 today.

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

AxAgent Context Selection For Go

This skill helps an agent write Go code with the generated Ax package github.com/ax-llm/ax/packages/go. Use the generated package API, examples, and manifests; do not import TypeScript-only APIs unless you are editing the TypeScript package.

When To Use

Choose between contextMap, contextPolicy, optimization, and recall for a task.
Avoid mixing persistent corpus orientation with within-run compaction.
Route long-context agent work to the right generated-package feature.

Package Facts

Language: Go.
Package: github.com/ax-llm/ax/packages/go.
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-goja.

Core Pattern

helper := ax.NewAgent("question:string -> answer:string", nil)
out := helper.Forward(llm, map[string]ax.Value{"question": "How should I proceed?"}, nil)

Relevant API Surface

Agents And RLM: axllm.NewAgent, axllm.AxAgent, AxAgent.AddChildAgent
Runtime Profiles: axllm.ProcessCodeRuntime, axllm.RuntimeCapabilities, axllm.RuntimeEnvelope, javascript-goja
Optimizers: axllm.Optimize, axllm.Playbook, axllm.AxPlaybook, axllm.AxBootstrapFewShot, axllm.AxGEPA, axllm.OptimizerEngine, axllm.OptimizerEvaluator

Guardrails

Start from package examples for exact native syntax before inventing a new call shape.
Use provider-api examples only when the user explicitly has provider credentials available.
Use no-key examples for deterministic local checks and provider request mapping.
Treat AxIR as the source of generated package truth: if package docs disagree with source code, update the compiler and regenerate packages.
Do not copy repo-maintainer skills from tools/*/skills/ into user packages.

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.
