# ax:extract-workflow - reconstruct the recipe behind a shipped artifact Given a deliverable (a demo, a PR, a feature) the user wants to know: what skills, in what order, produced it? This skill resolves an anchor (date or sha), windows the relevant sessions, and narrates the ordered skill arcs in plain text. Eats its own dogfood: it is itself a framing skill. Assumes `ax` (axctl) is on PATH. If `ax sessions here` fails, tell the user to check `docs/development.md#setup` (DuckDB dylib setup - no daemon required) and stop. ## When to fire ONLY on explicit reconstruction triggers: - "what made <X> work" / "how did we ship <Y>" - "extract workflow from <date>" / "extract workflow from <sha>" - "what was the workflow around <topic>" - "reconstruct the recipe for <artifact>" - "show me how I built <feature>" Do NOT fire on generic "what did I do today" or "show recent activity". That is `ax sessions here` territory, not this skill. ## Step 1 - resolve the anchor Decide one of three modes based on what the user gave you: | User said | Mode | Action | |---|---|---| | commit sha (full or short) | sha | use it directly | | date or date range (YYYY-MM-DD) | date | use `ax sessions around <date>` | | topic / feature / artifact name | topic | `ax recall "<topic>" --sources=commit --json` to find candidate shas | | "this repo, recently" | pwd | `ax sessions here --days=14` | For topic mode pick the most relevant sha and proceed in sha mode. If results are ambiguous, ask the user ...
