ax:setup

Install and verify ax - the local agent-experience graph. After this skill the user has the ax CLI on PATH, an ingested local graph (embedded DuckDB, no daemon to run or watch), and the ax skills loaded into Claude Code.

This skill is intentionally narrow: install + verify only. For day-to-day use see ax:retro (experiment loop), ax:extract-workflow (reconstruct the recipe behind a shipped artifact), or run the CLI directly.

When to fire

• "install ax" / "set up ax" / "first-time ax setup"
