ax-extract-workflow

ax-extract-workflow is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from YangsonHung/awesome-agent-skills. It costs 29 tokens per session (582 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for reconstructing how a completed feature, commit, demo, or other artifact was produced from local ax session records.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to investigate a shipped result by finding a relevant commit, date, or topic and reviewing the associated sessions and work.
Why use it?
It connects past agent sessions, tools, skills, decisions, and commits so the development process can be understood and repeated.

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-extract-workflow 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 12d 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.

ax Extract Workflow

Overview

Reconstruct the workflow behind a shipped artifact from local ax data. Resolve an anchor, find the relevant sessions, inspect turns, tools, skills, commits, and delegations, then write a compact account of what happened.

This skill assumes ax is installed, session data has been ingested, and the local ax database is reachable.

When to Use

Use this skill when the user asks for:

  • How a feature, PR, demo, or artifact was shipped
  • What made a past result work
  • The workflow around a date, commit, topic, or repository event
  • The sessions, tools, skills, or decisions that led to an artifact
  • A repeatable recipe based on prior local agent work

Do not use

Do not use this skill for:

  • Generic recent activity summaries
  • New implementation planning before past evidence is inspected
  • Project status reports not tied to a concrete artifact, date, or commit
  • Reconstructing work when local ax data is unavailable

Instructions

  1. Identify the anchor:
    • Commit SHA: use it directly.
    • Date: use a small window around that date.
    • Topic or artifact name: search commits first.
    • Current repo, recent work: inspect recent sessions for the repo.
  2. Resolve candidate sessions:
ax recall "<topic>" --sources=commit --json
ax sessions near <sha> --json
ax sessions around <date> --days=3 --json
ax sessions here --days=14 --json
  1. Pick up to five sessions. Prefer sessions with high turn counts, matching commits, related files, or relevant tool and skill usage.
  2. Inspect each selected session:
ax sessions show <id> --json
ax sessions show <id> --by-role
ax sessions show <id> --expand=<subagent-uuid>
  1. If ax cannot connect to its database, tell the user to start ax services and stop. Do not invent evidence.
  2. Write the reconstruction from evidence:
    • Ordered workflow arc: what happened first, next, and last.
    • Skill/tool role: what each important skill or tool contributed.
    • Key decisions: user steering points or tradeoffs that changed the work.
    • Repeatable recipe: how to run a similar workflow again.

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.
