ax-go-signature

ax-go-signature is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ax-llm/ax. It costs 43 tokens per session (2,284 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A Go coding guide for defining the inputs and outputs of Ax programs, including field types, JSON schemas, validation, and tool arguments.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when writing Go code with Ax, defining signatures, generating JSON Schema, validating results, or describing typed tool arguments.
Why use it?
It gives code a clear data contract, reducing mismatches between what a program expects and what it produces.

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-go-signature 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.

Ax Signatures 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

  • Declare input and output contracts with native generated-package APIs.
  • Generate JSON-schema-compatible shapes for outputs, tools, prompts, and validation.
  • Keep Standard Schema and TypeScript-only helper libraries out of generated-language code.

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

import ax "github.com/ax-llm/ax/packages/go"

sig := ax.NewSignature("question:string -> answer:string")
schema := sig.ToJSONSchema(nil)

More Patterns

Simple string contract

Use the string form when field names and types are enough.

program := ax.NewAx("questionText:string -> answerText:string", nil)

Bounded class output

A class field constrains the model to a known label set.

router := ax.NewAx(
  "messageText:string -> routeClass:class \"support, sales, engineering\"",
  nil,
)

Native constraints

Go exposes generated signature and field records directly.

signature := ax.AxSignature{
  Inputs: []ax.Field{{
    Name: "contactEmail",
    Type: ax.FieldType{Name: "string", Format: "email"},
  }},
  Outputs: []ax.Field{{
    Name: "partySize",
    Type: ax.FieldType{Name: "number", Minimum: 1, Maximum: 12},
  }},
}

JSON schema

Render the native signature for tools, validators, or external consumers.

schema := signature.ToJSONSchema(nil)

Reuse the signature

Attach the native signature to AxGen before the forward call.

program := ax.NewAx("contactEmail:string -> partySize:number", nil)
program.Signature = signature
output, err := program.Forward(ctx, client, inputs, nil)

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.

ax-go-signature is a skill published in the GitHub repository ax-llm/ax (2,971 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 43 tokens to every session and 2,284 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
