Control how much history the model sees

You choose how aggressively earlier actions are summarized without deleting live runtime values. Checkpointed with a balanced budget is the practical starting point.

AxAgent investigator = Ax.agent(signature, Map.of(
    "contextFields", List.of("logs"),
    "contextPolicy", Map.of("preset", "lean", "budget", "balanced"),
    "runtime", Map.of("language", "JavaScript")));

Run itIn your own project

// Gradle (build.gradle):
implementation 'dev.axllm:ax:24.0.15'
// Maven (pom.xml):
<dependency>
  <groupId>dev.axllm</groupId>
  <artifactId>ax</artifactId>
  <version>24.0.15</version>
</dependency>

import dev.axllm.ax.Ax;
import java.util.Map;

public class QuickStart {
  public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
    var llm = Ax.ai("openai", Map.of("apiKey", System.getenv("OPENAI_API_KEY")));
    var classify = Ax.ax("review:string -> sentiment:class \"positive, negative, neutral\"");
    var result = classify.forward(llm, Map.of(
      "review", "Useful and boring in the best way."
    ));

    System.out.println("sentiment: " + result.get("sentiment"));
  }
}

Set OPENAI_APIKEY in your environment before running provider-backed code.
