# Ax Audio And Realtime For Python

This skill helps an agent write Python code with the generated Ax package `axllm`. Use the generated package API, examples, and manifests; do not import TypeScript-only APIs unless you are editing the TypeScript package.

## When To Use

- Map speech, transcription, or realtime events through the generated provider surface.
- Use no-key examples for event folding and provider request mapping.
- Keep live provider calls behind explicit credentials and provider-api examples.

## Package Facts

- Language: Python.
- Package: `axllm`.
- 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

```python
import os
from axllm import ai

llm = ai("openai", api_key=os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"])
```

## Relevant API Surface

- AxAI: `ai`, `AxCancellationToken`, `AxAIServiceAbortedError`, `get_supported_ai_models`, `dict[str, str]`, `Callable[[dict[str, str]], dict[str, str]]`, `AIClient.owned_worker_factory`, `AxChatSession`, `closable generator`, `OpenAICompatibleClient`, `OpenAIResponsesClient`, `GoogleGeminiClient`, `AnthropicClient`, `AxUsageContext`, `AxUsageEvent`, `AxUsageObserver`, `set_usage_observer`, `AxRuntimeHooks`, `AxRateLimitInfo`, `AxRateLimiter`, `AxTracer`, `AxMeter`, `AxGlobals`, `set_rate_limiter`, `set_tracer`, `set_meter`, `AxBalancer`, `AxBalancerAdaptiveStrategy`, `AxBalancerStatsStore`, `AxInMemoryBalancerStatsStore`, `create_balancer_route_stats`, `update_balancer_route_stats`, `sample_balancer_route_health`, `MultiServiceRouter`, `ProviderRouter`

## 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.
