on-axis

name	on-axis
description	Apply an explicit command combo to a named axis or the clearly current axis. Use only when the user invokes on-axis or asks to apply commands to an axis; never change the Binding silently.

🎯 Think On Axis

Use when: A combo should focus on one branch inside a topic. Default binding: The named axis, otherwise the unambiguous current axis. Accepts: A compatible HACP Working Object or the declared default material. Effect: Resolve the human label and apply that axis to the combo in the same request or the next explicit combo. Result: An axis-level Binding. Duration: One combo, then clear. A multi-exchange interview or grill keeps the selected Binding until its loop ends. Limits: Ask once if several axes could change the result. The agent can still use relevant context outside the Binding. Do not create a new axis, run another command, or create persistent state.

Flow

resolve Binding → apply to whole combo → apply once, then clear

Format

When invoked alone, respond only:

Binding set: axis "<axis>" · Applies to: next combo

In a combo, use 🎯 **Axis: <axis>** as the first item in the trace. Ask one clarification if another binding card appears in the same combo.
