# Ax GEPA For Java This skill helps an agent write Java code with the generated Ax package `dev.axllm:ax`. Use the generated package API, examples, and manifests; do not import TypeScript-only APIs unless you are editing the TypeScript package. ## When To Use - Run the generated GEPA optimizer or inspect a GEPA artifact. - Use BootstrapFewShot before GEPA when demonstrations should seed optimization. - Track metric budgets, reflection calls, candidate state, and Pareto fronts. ## Package Facts - Language: Java. - Package: `dev.axllm:ax`. - Package API docs: `API.md` and `axir-api.json`. - Capability manifest: `axir-capabilities.json`. - Runnable examples: `examples/`. - Real network support: yes. - Scripted no-key transport support: yes. - Runtime profiles: `javascript-quickjs`, `python-pyodide`. ## Core Pattern ```java AxGEPA engine = new AxGEPA(reflectionClient, java.util.Map.of()); var result = engine.optimize(request, evaluator); ``` ## Relevant API Surface - Optimizers: `Ax.optimize`, `Ax.playbook`, `AxPlaybook`, `AxBootstrapFewShot`, `AxGEPA`, `OptimizerEngine`, `OptimizerEvaluator` ## Guardrails - Start from package examples for exact native syntax before inventing a new call shape. - Use `provider-api` examples only when the user explicitly has provider credentials available. - Use `no-key` examples for deterministic local checks and provider request mapping. - Treat AxIR as the source of generated package truth: if package docs disagree with source code, update the compiler and regenerate packages. - Do not copy repo-maintainer skills from `tools/*/skills/` into user packages.
