01 / Understand

Start with the whole problem.

Point Axle at your project and describe what you want to change. It searches the code, reads the relevant files, and follows the details that connect them.

  • Work directly in your existing project folder
  • Bring files and screenshots into the conversation
  • Keep the reasoning and the work in one thread

Why does the session expire after a refresh?
Reading the session flow

The refresh path is returning the previous token. I found the relevant handler and its tests.

02 / Plan

Make room to think first.

Use Plan mode to explore an approach before making edits. Ask questions, add constraints, and work through the tradeoffs with your code close at hand.

  • Read-only exploration in Plan mode
  • Choose a model for the task in front of you
  • Set approval controls for sensitive actions

A small change, with a regression test to cover it.

Read-only exploration. Move to an editing mode when you are ready.
03 / Build

Move from an idea to a real change.

Axle can edit files, run commands, and work with Git. Follow the changes as they happen, with the code and terminal output available to inspect.

  • Edits land in the files you already own
  • Use your project's build tools and test runner
  • Inspect the diff without losing the conversation
