Que fait Axon ?

Route first, then load only the selected reference. Derive changing facts at runtime; never substitute a remembered port, inventory, issue state, service status, or graph count.

Resolve context

Run one bounded context command before reading broadly:

scripts/axon-context with [capability]
scripts/axon-context on [unit-or-path]

If the command cannot find the checkout, work from the Axon repository or set the existing AXON_ROOT environment variable. Read references/shared-failure-policy.md when any expected tool, overlay, service, graph, or remote is unavailable.

Select one mode

Work with Axon

Use this mode to discover or operate running capabilities, feeds, APIs, and health surfaces.

1. Read references/with-discovery.md.
2. For reads, writes, ingestion, or operator actions, also read references/with-operations.md.
3. Read references/shared-data-boundaries.md before handling personal, vault, or cross-capability data.

Work on Axon

Use this mode to understand, review, plan, or change the repository.

1. Read references/on-orientation.md.
2. Load only the additional leaf matching the task:

Task	Read
Architecture or ownership boundary	references/shared-architecture.md
Data, secrets, provenance, or trust	references/shared-data-boundaries.md
Decide where code or configuration belongs	references/on-placement.md
Dependencies, language, shell, or the build	references/on-dependencies-and-build.md
README, generated docs, manifests, Packs, or skills	references/on-documentation.md
Tests, gates, review, or completion claims	references/on-verification.md
Branch, commit, or PR	references/on-changes.md

For symbol-level traversal, use Graphify only when a current graph and Graphify integration are present. Treat it as a drill-down after bounded orientation, never as the bootstrap.

Invariants

• Preserve unrelated worktree changes and resolve the exact target before editing.
• Keep public code and doctrine in Axon; keep private values and state in the active overlay.
• Never generate, reveal, move, or overwrite secrets without explicit authorization.
• Prefer manifests, registry output, self-model queries, and GitHub metadata over duplicated prose.
• Report failed or unavailable checks exactly; do not turn missing optional context into a successful validation claim.
