See the idea in context

analyst = agent(signature, {
    "contextFields": ["codebase"],
    "contextPolicy": {"preset": "adaptive", "budget": "balanced"},
    "contextMap": {"maxChars": 1800, "infiniteEvolve": False, "evolveSteps": 1},
})

Run itIn your own project

pip install axllm

from axllm import ai, ax

llm = ai('openai', api_key=os.environ['OPENAI_API_KEY'])
classify = ax('review:string -> sentiment:class "positive, negative, neutral"')

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

In the ax repo

From a clone of the ax repo:

npm run example -- python src/examples/python/long-agents/codebase-peek-map.py
